Dining Out: A Quick BurGR Bite

BurGR
(inside Planet Hollywood)
3667 Las Vegas Blvd S, Las Vegas
702.785.5555


Being a huge fan of cooking shows and being fortunate enough to have actually met a few of my culinary heroes, I was definitely intrigued when I saw Gordon Ramsay's BurGR restaurant at Planet Hollywood in Las Vegas.

With a wait time of forty-five minutes, however, I decided to try my luck at the bar area instead. Luckily for me, there was a seat opening up right as I walked over. Sorry, family-of-five waiting in the wings ~ papa needs to drink!

Honey-Pig Bao Bun
Since I didn't experience a full BurGR sit-down, I won't give a full review. However, let me tell you that the Honey-Pig Bao Buns was amazing! A slow roasted pork belly garnished with cucumber and radish strings, teased with cilantro, and drizzled with honey hoisin sauce sat beautifully on my plate as I watched a baseball game and drank my Stone IPA. 

This was a great afternoon distraction from walking up and down the strip all day. I was definitely glad that I stopped in and decided to stay a while.

Considering the incredible service I received from the bartenders and the high-quality bao bun they brought me, I would venture to say that BurGR is worth a dining trip. However, it's not so bad for a quick bite either.


RATING: 7 out of 10 (bar area)
