This year we are celebrating National Burger Day by creating a giant burger that guests can eat for free if eaten within one hour. It is a Man vs. Burger showdown, the kind usually seen across the pond, but which we are excited to offer Londoners on Thursday 23rd August. There is only one person per burger allowed and all participants must pre-book as the ingredients have to be ordered in especially for this gargantuan feat! The burger in question is eight times the size of our usual burger, weighing in at 5lb The huge bun and patty, which is the size of a main course plate, includes a hash brown, roasted Portobello mushrooms, beer battered onion rings, streaky bacon, mozzarella, confit tomatoes, fried eggs and jalapeno sauce. Big on flavour and big in size, it is sure to delight and challenge those with eyes as big as their stomachs.
Apart from the Man vs. Burger showdown, we are also offering a range of delicious one off burgers especially created for National Burger Day. The new one-off burgers available include: Prawn and Chorizo burger (£15), which includes a breaded patty made from diced and puree prawns with lettuce, tomato, chorizo jam, chipotle mayo; The Dirty-Double cheeseburger (£13), which adds gorgonzola, Philadelphia, baby spinach, pickled red onion and sweet chilli sauce to their usual succulent patty as well as Braised Short Rib burger (£13), which includes short rib braised in red wine, sauerkraut, emmental cheese and smoked corn relish.
To enjoy this delicious range of burgers and the spectacle of Man vs. Burger guests should head to Smith & Wollensky this National Burger Day. For those rising to the challenge set by head chef Tom Cook guests should remember to pre-book via phone (020 7321 6007) or email (enquiries@smithandwollensky.co.uk).
