Le Lucien Veggie Burger at Big Fernand
What’s in it?
Big Mushroom from Paname, Tomme de Savoie cheese, dried tomatoes, pickled onions, chives, Tata Fernande sauce (homemade cocktail sauce)
What’s so special?
It’s the steak of veggie burgers. Instead of having grilled patties like we’d normally see and expect from burgers, we have a pile of big mushrooms here. They mingle well with the cheese on the outside and are surprisingly juicy and moist on the inside. The sauce slather over the already delicious burger and it’s burst of flavours as you bite. It’s more than just a veggie burger, it’s a gourmet masterpiece.

Veggie Burger at Texas Burger
What’s in it?
Grilled housemade savory veggie patty, avocado, lettuce, tomatoes, melted Monterey lack cheese, aioli
What’s so special?
The freshness of lettuce and tomatoes balances the fragile veggie patty that is sautéed and peppered just right. Cheese melts beautifully in the burger and together with the garlic aioli it’s a huge hit of flavor. Also, we think avocado should be the new burger staple. We love how it’s smushed inside the bun and makes each bite creamy.
Why we love it?
It looks simple in terms of appearance, but it’s great-tasting as you bite into the burger. The seasoning flavours up the patty to perfection that makes it on our list of all-time favourite veggie burgers. Even if you’re not a fan of veggie dishes, you will be and you will rave about this.
