Momentum for the burger revolution keeps building: Following in MyBurgerLab’s high-profile footsteps, here’s another potential hot spot for fans of burger brilliance.

Texas Hold Me

Calorie-counters might flee in terror from Burger Junkyard’s Texas Hold Me (RM14.90, no taxes): An Australian beef patty sandwiched with beef bacon, cheddar, onion rings and smoked BBQ aioli. Tastes like the most voluptuous street burger ever.Burger Junkyard_2

Balsamic Beefin’s Onions

Char-grilled beef with caramelized onion chutney, balsamic raisin sauce, pan-roasted tomatoes, steamed aged cheddar and garden greens (RM15.90 for a 90-gram patty, RM19.90 for 180 grams). Get messy: no cutlery supplied, so everything’s finger-lickin’-fantastic.Burger Junkyard_3

Brioche Buns

Comparisons between MyBurgerLab and Burger Junkyard might be inevitable, but both outlets possess their own merits. No charcoal buns at the Junkyard, but the fresh buttered brioches here remain no less addictive.Burger Junkyard_4

Boneless Chicken Thighs

Burger Junkyard swaps minced meat for boneless chicken thighs to make its brine-cured chicken patties, like this one with celery sticks, sour cream and buffalo hot sauce (RM14.90).Burger Junkyard_5

The Brooklyn Burger

Our fave: The Brooklyn Burger (RM15.90), succulent beef/chicken with smoked turkey ham, beef bacon, grilled pineapple, tomato, onions, fried egg, cheese and aioli. All burger prices include a hearty helping of fries and Burger Junkyard’s own special sauce.Burger Junkyard_6

Vegetarian Burgers

Vegetarian burgers are available. This Ratatouille one’s something special, with its soft, savory stew of tomato concasse, onions, aubergine, zucchini, capsicum and Burger Junkyard’s signature steamed aged cheddar, which features in every burger here.Burger Junkyard_7

Rats! This Junkyard’s filled with them; fun to play with while waiting for the food. Burger Junkyard_8

On the bright side, the wait here shouldn’t take more than 15 minutes (for now). Plus, there’s a 10 percent discount off all burgers as an opening promotion this month.Burger Junkyard_9
