Was in London for a week and ate mostly at upscale restaurants and this was by FAR the best think I ate why there, and probably one of the best burgers I’ve ever had. The burger was excellent and so were the fries.

We stumbled upon this place for the first time in 2013 by accident in Southbank. The duck confit burger from here was literally unforgettable. We’ve visited London a few times since, but were never able to swing by one of their pop-up locations. Then after a year and a half, we were finally reunited in Camden Market weekend before last. It was everything I remembered and more. Flavourful duck confit topped with truffled honey and goats cheese in between a brioche bun. I nearly ordered a second one after the first bite. WORTHTHEHYPE.

I love these burgers! I’ve had them now at the Real Food Market(Southbank), Camden Market and most recently at Whitecross Food Market. It’s a delicious burger that really makes you want to savour every bite. I always get the goat cheese and truffle oil option(oh so good!). It always tastes delicious. Someone once asked me what was so special about them because it’s just a burger… well yes, it is just a burger but it’s not your regular burger. It’s a duck confit burger(which you really don’t come across very often) so really unique and super special. It’s served on a nice, sweet, soft bun. Very tasty. The only reason that it’s four stars is that it is 7 pounds for one burger which compared to other market stalls is quite pricey but at the end of the day I do think it’s worth it! Delish!

**At time of writing, The Frenchie can be found at the following locations: Whitecross St Camden Lock Real Food Festival(Southbank) Brick Lane Market(Sundays) Check @TheFrenchieUK on the Twitter for deets** I am no porn afficionado. Whether it’s the fakeness or the general hilarity of it all… it’s never been something I could get into. Why have I mentioned this? Well. The Frenchie makes a duck confit burger in a brioche bun with duck skin scratchings, onion chutney, and mustard, with a choice of blue cheese or smoked cheddar. This, my friends, is pure pornography(the French… who else?) and is dangerously close to becoming an addiction for me. I know that the whole sex-and-food thing is a bit hackneyed but, my friends, this is an extreme case. The entire experience is pretty sexual. The cooking and assembly of the burger is both filthy and tantalising as the duck sizzles in its own delicious fat and the cheese bubbles on the side. ANDTHENTHEYSCRAPETHECHEESEFROMTHEGRILLANDPLACEITONTHEDUCK. Gott in Himmel. Talk about unfair. The end result is, well, stunning — the burger is a decent size and the brioche glistens with delicious, life-giving grease. Needless to say, it tastes as good as it looks — duck confit can be really hit or miss, but they do it just right here. I absolutely love the crunch of the crispy skin(it’s deep fried separately just to make sure). I think the smoked cheddar is my favourite cheesy addition as it plays really nicely with the onion chutney and mustard, but the blue cheese is also good. This an ridiculously decadent beauty of a burger which everyone should try and at £6 it’s worth every penny. The Frenchie, without doubt, is my favourite food stall in London right now(unfortunately the queues keep getting bigger too, but such is life), even if I can’t help but feel slightly filthy afterwards. Yes, yes, you can all question my patriotic credentials at this point, but mark my words, after one bite you’ll be singing«allez les Bleus» aussi.
