James vs. The Impossible Burger

A vegan burger that looks, smells and tastes just like beef? A meatless burger that will fool even the most hardcore meat eaters? That’s what the Bill Gates-backed, San Francisco-developed Impossible Burger has been touted as by many. I’d seen many Instagram photos and blog posts by people who had eaten the burger. Photos of […]

I went to Japan and ate Burger King’s Black Burger so you never have to

Late last year, we took a trip around Japan and during that time, I ate a couple of burgers. From what I could understand, the burger scene over there isn’t quite like what we have in Glasgow, but I had a few places noted in my phone and was determined to make it to each […]

Seitan Burger – Mono, Glasgow

Throughout June, James vs. Burger has adopted an all-vegan diet (#NaeMeatJune) and has been on the lookout for the best meat-free burgers that the city has to offer.

Recipe: The Heisenburger

Cheeseburger-Crust Pizza – Pizza Hut

Kimchi Special Burger – Kimchi Cult at KILTR Street Feastival, Glasgow

On July 20th & 21st, the Glasgow Barrowlands Art & Design Centre played host to the first ever ‘Street Feastival’, organised by the folks at KILTR, who wanted to inject some of the latest gourmet street food craze into Glasgow’s East End. The idea behind the ‘feastival‘ was simple. There were no tickets or entry […]

Bangkok Burger – Soba, Glasgow

We know what you’re thinking – surely a restaurant & cocktail bar known for it’s South-East Asian cuisine would be one of the last places you’d expect to find a good burger in Glasgow? Well, we would have probably agreed with you before; however, when we happened to notice the Bangkok Burger, advertised as served […]
