Selfish Burger (No. 180 Zhuangjing Road, Xinyi District, Taipei, tel : +886 2 2345 0825) is in the game for burgers that are fun. Aside from one classic burger on their menu, most of the rest are more...progressive/experimentative and flavour forward. No so much for purists. But what do I know.
There's a Smoky Cocoa burger for their fall/winter. Beef patty, bacon, caramelized onions, caramelized bananas, cocoa spread of sorts and rockets. Chocolate's assertive with this one, countered by a fruitiness from the caramelised onions. And then bananas, bacon and beef. Rockets fell by the wayside. I think it's not bad, interesting even.
Blue cheese burger. Blue cheese sauce, rockets and balsamic vinegar. I don't know if the intention was to keep the blue cheese intensity moderated. I mean, it's there but I personally feel more presence would be nice.
Fried chicken with cream cheese and crushed honeycomb. That and a horizontal cut slice of apple beneath. The flavour combination worked. I liked this. I could come back for this. That fried chicken was outstanding.
There're options to upgrade burgers into a combo meals that comes with a side and a drink. 有點饿 (a little hungry) includes fries while 超級饿 (super hungry) tops those fries with onion rings and a fried chicken wing.
Fish sticks were much nicer than the name suggested. Those are real fingers of real fish meat, some with skin on still.
Their brown sugar whiskey milk shake was nicer than appearances suggest.
