A restaurant in
Chelsea is giving customers the ultimate post-pub treat – by selling a burger
for £1,100.
Made In Chelsea
may have given the upmarket suburb its expensive image , but this
posh nosh takes fine dining to another level.
The world's most
expensive burger, dubbed the 'Glamburger', is stuffed with a burger patty made
from 220 grams of Kobe Wagyu beef minced with 60 grams of New Zealand venison
and seasoned with smoked Himalayan salt.
Posh nosh: The burger is available in upmarket Chelsea
Inside the opulent
meat patty is a liquid pocket of black truffle brie.
As if that isn't
enough, the burger is then served with a Canadian lobster poached in Iranian
saffron topped off with maple syrup coated streaky bacon, Beluga caviar and a
hickory smoked duck egg intricately covered in edible gold leaf.
The bun is
seasoned with a Japanese matcha – a kind of powdered green tea – cream
mayonnaise and a coating of gold leaf.
Proud: Head chef Chris experimented with various ingredients to perfect the
dish
To top it all off,
a mango and champagne jus is drizzled on top and peppered with grated white
truffle.
While the
extravagant burger will probably burn a hole in your pocket - unless you're
Millie Mackintosh - it will also load on the pounds.
Glamburger
contains a whopping 2,618 calories - more than the recommended daily intake for
an adult.
The gastronomic
feat, available at Honky Tonk restaurant , took three weeks to
create in the kitchens as head chef Chris Large experimented with various
ingredients and methods before settling on his winning recipe.
Chris, who helped
create the burger as part of a publicity stunt with Groupon to give the meal
away for free, said: "After sourcing the best possible ingredients to
create this masterpiece, the winner will certainly have a dinner to
remember."
