Honest Burgers partners with Venezuelan street food concept Petare for one-off chicken burger
The Masa Fried Chicken is available in all Honest sites until 25 November.
Honest Burgers has teamed up with Venezuelan street food concept Petare to develop its newest one-off burger: the Masa Fried Chicken.
Available 29 October to 25 November in all Honest site, the new offering combines buttermilk fried chicken thigh with bacon, American cheese, guava glaze, charred corn slaw, habanero mayo, lettuce and pickles. The said ingredients are served on Honest’s burger bun with their signature homemade rosemary salted chips for £12.50.
“Petare’s fried chicken has won every award going, making its founder Rotsen a London street food star. He’s taken the food he grew up with in Venezuela and put an original spin on it, like his guava glaze and a habanero mayo. It’s got to be tried,” Honest Burgers co-founder Tom Barton said.
"When you start out as a street food trader you look at businesses like Honest Burgers and they encourage you to dream big. You create a killer dish and you work hard every day to make it a little bit better. This collab is a big deal for us. I’m excited to feed thousands of new customers,” Petare founder Rotsen Ibarra added.
Liverpool Street outlet opens
The chain also announced the opening of their newest store in Liverpool Street.
The 136-cover restaurant will showcase a local special burger in collaboration with Babek Brothers called the ‘LIVERPOOL ST’, which combines Babek-spiced Honest beef with British halloumi, red pepper relish, tomato, white cabbage, garlic mayo and pink pickled onions.
Honest Burgers’s newest site will also feature a cocktail in collaboration with local whisky bar Black Rock Tavern, who are offering special ‘coins’ for the first thousand sold.
The coins can be exchanged for a double ‘Maker’s Mark’ in London’s first whisky vending machine at Black Rock Tavern.
