Purveyor: Hive Bar, Erskineville, NSW, Australia
Menu Item: Sriracha Chicken Burger
Price: $9 Lunch Special (normally $18)
Squawk: Great bun. I believe the correct term is “brioche.” Super tender white meat – maybe even too marinated, not a flavour bomb, but overly moist. Decent fries, but a bit cold. Great (read: unusual) beers on tap.
Buaawk: Last time I checked Sriracha had some heat. This burger did not. Wasn’t spicy, no mouth burn, not even a tingle. They’ve mixed it with so much mayo, they may as well call it the “Red Mayo Chicken Burger.”
Rating: 5/10
