Fromage & Fortune

We were at Mr. Go’s before going to see Lizzie, and I decided to try their burger. Mr. Go’s have won the Burger Wellington competition in the past so I thought they would have an interesting burger.

Their entry is called Fromage & Fortune, and is described on the WOAP website like this:

Xi'an style braised pork belly, pickled green chilli, peanuts and Kingsmeade Ngawi brie in a Cube Bakery rou jia mo bun

It looks like this: 


The Garage Project beer match is Red Dog, which is specifically brewed as a burger accompaniment, and is a tasty drop.

How was it? The pork was spicy and very tender, and atop the pork was the brie, which had been squashed and cooked. The bun was a bit different as well, the rou jia mo being a Chinese hamburger bun that’s crispy on the outside but soft in the middle. It wasn’t very big and there were no fries or other accompaniments. I wasn’t wholly convinced by this burger. It was OK, there was nothing wrong with it, but nothing really stood out. I gave it a rating of 6/10.
