Big fernand reviews

I liked the pictures so we headed down.

Big Fernand is a burger chain that has taken Paris by storm, and quite rightly so because the food is fantastic. Situated in the 9th, 2nd and 1st arrondissements with an additional branch out at LaDefense , these little burger joints offer a simple concept. They make their bread and fries especially; quality and taste are very important factors here at Big Fernand. All that makes it more than worth a visit — except if you have a low tolerance for frustratingly annoying waiting staff which I do. Or sacrifice a friend and make them go in and face the full force of some of the worst service ever.

Going Out Restaurants. The seemly burger — does it exist? Is it a contradiction in terms? Here comes the French marvel Big Fernand to test the proposition to the limit once again. London had its burger apocalypse some 10 years ago now. Big Fernand, a French chain offering thoroughly tasteful burgers in a pleasant environment, was created in Paris in , soon opening elsewhere in France. Big Fernand has continued to prosper elsewhere though, now with 47 branches in France and several in UAE too. Perhaps inspired by the success of the French Big Mamma group in opening Gloria and Circolo Popolare in London, they are trying again, this time, more appropriately, in the Frenchest area of London, South Ken, directly opposite the whopping Le Pain Quotidien. Yet the delivery is seriously good. And those burgers? They are as tasteful as a burger can be, if that is what a burger hopes to aspire towards. They are sensibly proportioned, not bigs, not whoppers, certainly not dirty, but sanely sized and not over-filled. The bun is fresh, the UK-sourced meat good quality, the cheeses distinctive, the sauces not overpowering, the herbs coming through clearly.

Reviewed August 30, What a Gem! Concise menu, done brilliantly. The kids shared one burger,

If you buy into the stereotypical caricature of French food as a rarefied haute cuisine that abhors any sort of perfidious Anglo-Saxon influence, then the very idea of French burgers is oxymoronic. Some think that Londoners must have burger fatigue after the burger restaurant deluge of recent years , but someone forgot to tell that to the hordes of punters filling up Big Fernand across all six of my visits. The decor is Barnyard -lite with its exposed and uneven wooden and brick surfaces. You order at the till and pick up your order at the other end of the counter. The predominantly Gallic staff were clad in somewhat goofy flat caps and chequered shirts, but were all dashingly attractive nonetheless.

Thankfully we opted to sit outside so we were sheltered slightly from the unnecessary shouting of orders to the kitchen, which is right next to the till and the tables where you will eat at if you choose to sit inside. The plus side to this is whilst you are waiting for your food; you are able to see it being prepared right in front of you.

Get food delivered. Well, mostly. The creepy chef also kept winking at my partner behind my back throughout our and both him and the waitress made her feel very uncomfortable. French 5.

Why Paris Food Tours are the perfect experience I had the Big Fernand burger while my wife went for Le Belphegor. Oh well.

I liked the pictures so we headed down. The eponymous Le Big Fernand uses a finely ground beef patty that nonetheless retained some chewiness to it. Fresh, delicious burgers, great service with amusing, interested staff happy to practice their English with us… and lots more to try. Opening Hours : seven days a week noon The BBQ sauce provided a necessary sweetness, cutting back on the incredible umami from the rest of the burger. Why Paris Food Tours are the perfect experience Holy moley. The chips were formed from whole slices of potato rather than reconstituted mush. We had to wait for 15 minutes as it seems to be a very popular spot. Reviewed August 30, What a Gem! If you want, you can dip your chips in myriad sauces — none of which were particularly memorable.
