Huber's Beef Burger with Bacon and Gruyere

$15.50 · 3 Reviews

The creamy taste of the cheese went so well with the nicely charred Chuck patty and the buns were toasted nicely, preventing it from getting soggy from the meat juices.

The patties are usually done medium well, so remember to inform them if you want it done different. Also, the portions at hubers are generally quite big so come with an empty stomach for maximum enjoyment.

Located right by the entrance of Dempsey Hill, this gourmet butchery cum bistro is the perfect brunch location for the whole family. On a weekend, expect to wait about 20 minutes for a table. Thankfully, you can seek respite while browsing gourmet items in the air-conditioned butchery next door while the kids run amok at the playground. Surrounded by lush greenery, your brunch experience will be laid back and well worth the wait. Order the Huber's Beef Burger with Bacon and Gruyere ($15.50) — made with 170g of Australian ground beef (served medium well, but you can let the staff know if you prefer otherwise). With a lethal combo of two nicely charred buns that are pillowy soft but never soggy, melted gruyere cheese, crispy strips of bacon, this is one satisfying burger that will keep you coming back time and time again. Also order the Spicy Italian Sausage ($13.80) to share, it's probably the best hot dog around.

What can I say, this might be one of the best burgers out there, especially at this price. Those buns were charred to perfection and were pillowy soft but never soggy. The 170g Australian beef patty was well seasoned and done medium well (their default done-ness unless you request otherwise). The bacon was straightforward - crispy and fatty just the way you want it to be - while the cheese never overpowered the beef and only served to complement. You may be tempted to order the Huber's Dry Aged Beef Burger instead, with its 200g patty and sundried tomato aoli, but you won't be as satisfied compared to eating this bacon & cheese combo. Will totally come back with my family again. It's a very kid friendly place full of families having weekend lunch. The greenery outside and the nice playground really sets the mood too. If you're willing to wait, sitting inside is a lot more comfortable.
