What?!

Finding myself often eating a burger when dining out, especially at pubs, I end up comparing them, usually unfavourably to a Big Mac - the perfect takeaway burger - as in "I could have had four Big Macs for the cost of this monstrosity" and so forth. I've decided, therefore, to document my adventures in burgerland for your amusement if nothing else.

How it works:

Burgers are rated out of five ⭐ for the quality of the patty itself (meat or veggie), the amount and quality of the toppings and sauce, and the integrity of the bun it's served in. The bun must hold up to its proper use as the handle by which one eats the burger - any burger you cannot pick up and eat with your hands will get disqualified.

There is then an overall rating:

🍔: poor, I'd really rather have a Big Mac or two
🍔🍔: Not bad but would prefer a Big Mac
🍔🍔🍔: Pretty good, might prefer a Big Mac if offered
🍔🍔🍔🍔: Very good, almost worth the extra it costs over a Big Mac
🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔: Excellent, worth as many Big Macs as it cost
