Just when you think you’ve seen everything in the known Burgerverse, a place like Uncle Sam’s Burgers comes along and challenges everything we’ve come to accept that is Burger. Coming to NYC all the way from Beijing, Uncle Sam’s Burgers uses bold Asian flavors to create unique take on the classic American Hamburger. You make think you’ve seen something like this but trust us, this is a new world for Burgers.
To give people a really deep look into the level of culinary creativity behind the Uncle Sam’s Burgers, Chef Sean created 4 off-menu Burgers each themed off the native cuisine of a different Asian country. Those Burgers will be available 1 per week for National Hamburger Month 2016. That means they are only available for 7 days each.
Unless you were one of the limited few people who were able to attend The Twisted Burger Experience during NYC Burger Week where for 1 night only, all 4 were served. Each Burger was served along with a presentation about the inspiration behind each Burger. If you are curious to try these yourself, best to get yourself to Uncle Sam’s Burgers immediately!
