Top 10 Burgers & Sandwiches
Gourmet burgers are big business now but you don't need to leave home to get a bite of this juicy craze.
Fancy burgers featuring everything from 24-karat gold leaf, wagyu beef and truffles are all the rage now. The once-humble burger with its fast-food connotations has undergone a quite metamorphosis in recent years. Gone is the fatty mince and processed cheese slices. Gluten-free brioches have replaced buns, with Kobe beef and perhaps beluga caviar standing in for the meat patty, all smothered in aioli and artisan BBQ sauce.
Most cities are home to an array of gourmet burger joints and various upmarket restaurants seemingly vye to produce the world's most expensive burger – a record reportedly held by Dutch diner De Daltons' Golden Boy burger with a whopping price tag of €5,000.
But all that sounds a little too nouveau riche for your tastes, rest assured you can create your own Michelin-worthy burger masterpieces at home. We've even thrown in a few sandwiches just to spice things up.
