Are you craving for Burgers? Read about these 5 places in Bangalore to satiate your taste buds

There was a time when burgers were the essential food in the American household. But if you think Burger has American roots you are missing a fact. Actually the term ‘burger’ is the short form of Hamburger. Hamburger was brought to the USA by the German immigrants who came to the USA before 1900. However, it was made popular by the American folks only during the Great Wars.

Also, you will be amazed to know burgers were called the Liberty Sandwich because the American soldiers did not want to use a German name. If you go abroad and ask for a veg burger you will be laughed at. Because there is no such dish that they know of. Also beef is the most preferred meat for burgers. However, when McDonald's launched its outlets in India it had to replace the beef burgers with veg burgers.

Easy to eat and with each bite the mouth is filled with the juiciness of the flavour of the grilled meat, cheese and ketchup. The feeling is just awesome. Now I am sure you can imagine the taste and happiness burgers bring to your life. It will be a great injustice if I don’t write about the best 4 burger joints in Bangalore.

#1. Connie’s Restaurant & Steakhouse, Kammanahalli

This food outlet located at Nehru Road is a nice place. It is famous for Steak, Barbeque and Burgers. Apart from these they also serve Continental, American and European cuisines. I will write more about the food, but first, let’s talk a little about the ambience and service of Connie’s. The interior décor is very homely that makes you feel comfortable and peaceful.

The service of Conner’s is promising and you will not regret going to this place. The staffs are courteous, friendly and know about their menu. If you have a small appetite, then take your friends with you who are big time foodies. Connie’s portions are big as they believe in PGA “People with a giant appetite".

Dishes that you should try here:

Even though this place is a paradise for meat lovers and burger lovers, they have a lot more to offer than these. If you are going to this for the 1st time you can try Chicken Wings, Pork Sizzler, Pork Ribs, Beef Burger, and Jack Daniels Beef Steak. In the desserts, you can try Caramel Custard, waffles and dark chocolate mousse.

Also if your craving of the burger is satiated then you can also go for Dal Pakwan, Butterfly Chicken, Dabeli, Keema Bao, and Pandi Curry.
