- Lucky Chip goes permanent with Burgers & Wine in Dalston
A Hot Dinners Exclusive
Lucky Chip were one of the first wave of burger vans who showed Londoners just what a good burger actually was (it's hard to remember now but a few short years ago in London a decent burger was almost unheard of). And now after stints at Netil Market and a number of successful residencies - they're finally ready to go permanent with Lucky Chip Burgers & Wine in
... - McDonalds trial their new signature burgers in London - we went to try them out
McDonalds are having a go with a new signature range of upmarket burgers and half of the places chosen nationwide to trial it are in London. The three burger collection was put together by the company's Chefs Council which apparently includes chefs who've worked for both Michelin starred restaurants and have cooked for international royalty.
The three burgers from the range (which cost £4,89) being showcased at the trial are:
- The Classic - patty
- Bleecker St Burger's container has landed in Canary Wharf
Hot Dinners Exclusive
It's always a good day when we get to talk about Bleecker St Burger bringing their amazing burgers to a new part of town. Today that joyous news is that they've just crained the container that was on the southbank this summer into Canary Wharf's Montgomery Square.
To begin with, they'll start with the small but perfectly formed menu of the Double Cheeseburger, Fries and Angry Fries. But the menu will expand with
... - Pho & Bun are introducing a bao burger hybrid to London
Londoners prepare yourself - hitting Shaftesbury Avenue this month is what promises to be the perfect fusion between two of the city's current food obsessions - burger and bao. Pho & Bun is the brainchild of Holborn restaurant Viet Eat's owner Andy Le. The new Vietnamese spot will focus on Pho and
their steamed milky bun burger. And while the rest of the dishes all sound lovely - rare sirloin beef pho, summer roll with tiger

Updated 13/10/15 with pics.
Well it seems that there well and truly is a god. It's not a secret that Hot Dinners is based in Islington, so when news popped into our inbox that MEATliquor was planning on opening their fourth restaurant here, well to say we were pleased isn't the half of it.
They're going to open where in the site where Pipsdish once was - an

Haven't managed to make it into Barrafina yet? You can get a taste of it at all the MEATliquors, MEATmarket and MEATmission with the Barrafina Burger.

It's by MEATliquor's Yianni Papoutsis and

Two of our favourite burger puyveyors are joining up to build the ultimate burger in honour of World Peace Day.

Ben Denner of Lucky Chip and Zan Kaufman at Bleecker are putting together a burger
... - Sat Bains teams up with Shake Shack for a one day burger collaboration
Now this is interesting - Shake Shack have brought in Michelin-starred chef Sat Bains for a burger collaboration. It's the first since they teamed up with Massimo Bottura this time last year, so we'd say this looks like becoming an annual tradition.
The limited edition burger collaboration will be served up at the Covent Garden Shack for one day only - Friday, 9th October.
As for what's in the burger - The Major Oak (£7.25) takes its name from

Patty and Bun is well worth the trip at the best of times, but if the queues at James Street aren't your cup of tea, we think you should head east for their latest, The Arch in London Fields.
Where is it?
Right round the corner from London Fields station - and a few arches down from the E5 Bakehouse. And it's pretty big inside (although we set ourselves up on one of the few tables outside), as you
