Honest Burgers deliver lockdown takeaway 2.0

Honest Burger’s home delivery service has all your burger cravings covered

Words by Will Halbert

Not to get nostalgic or anything, but remember game nights, get-togethers, shindigs, and regular, ol’ fashioned socialising? You know what I’m talking about; the beers, the cheers, the chit chat and, of course, the inevitable takeaway. 

If there’s one area of our collective existence to have improved dramatically over the course of the ongoing pandemic it’s the takeaway. Historically, they’ve always been a kind of compromise; you settle for a forgivable dip in quality in the interest of a slight gain in convenience. Then COVID came along and restaurants started upping the ante, beguiling us all with an array of culinary backflips and gastronomic pyrotechnics delivered straight to your door. As a result, I’ve stained cuff and collar alike on some of the finest wining and dining that home delivery has to offer – but I’m of the strong opinion that you can’t beat a good burger. 

Honest Burgers’ ‘Honest at Home’ forms part of a growing number of restaurant meal kits that strike the perfect balance between quality and simplicity. The kit is straightforward enough that you can’t possibly mess it up, yet immersive enough to feel like you’re actually doing something. It’s home cooking with the rails up, or the stabilisers on, depending on your preferred metaphor for things that can’t possibly go wrong. Haute cuisine it ain’t, but it’s still a lightly-involved, convivial way of cooking that will surely find an even greater stride when the days of proper shindigging finally return.
