Re: Burgers : Chicken or Beef ?

When they are made with chicken, fish, or beef - why are they still called Hamburgers?

That must be in the UK only. In the US, a hamburger is a hamburger. Anything else is always called by the proper name ie: fish sandwich, chicken sandwich etc

Re: Burgers : Chicken or Beef ?

The worse thing that ever happened in Australia was Maccas. I never thought they would catch on.

Every deli and milk bar in Australia made a much better burger using their own patties, onions , lettuce, bacon, eggs, beetroot (I didn't like that), pineapple, toasted bun etc. After the pathetic things in the UK at Wimpy Bars - literally a thin meat pattie in a thin bun - they were a revelation.

These days Maccas occasionally has a special "Aussie Burger" to relive the good old days before they came along and spoiled it.

Now clubs and some restaurants have revived those great burgers (at a price)

In the UK those hamburger chains were a leap forward, in Australia a step backwards.

Not sure this is true but legend has it that the name hamburger was named for a restaurant cook, in NYC, who came from Hamburg, Germany.

Re: Burgers : Chicken or Beef ?

I am very picky about hamburgers. After all here you get one at pretty much any eating establishment here.
Cheese
Lettuce
Tomato
Onions
Mayo
Bacon
Sometimes Jalapenos
prefer them on buns made from potato bread.
