If you’re ordering a hamburger while on holiday in Bali you’d be well advised to ask about the size of the burger beforehand.
A case in point: the Stadium Cafe on Jalan Kartika Plaza in South Kuta recently cooked a "whopper" of a burger weighing 10 kilograms.
The idea of the restaurants' Sous Chef, Gusti Nyoman Putra Yasa, the burger's recipe called for 1.5 kilograms of cheese, 3 kilogram of bread buns and 5 kilograms of ground beef. And, considering a normal burger might tip the scales at between 80-100 grams, you might also bring along 100 or so friends along to help consume such a giant sandwich.
The entire cooking process took almost an hour, including 45 minutes in a hot oven to cook the hamburger meat.
The owners of Stadium Cafe are said to still be making enquiries to see if their giant burger qualifies for some sort of world’s record, the giant hamburger did achieve its real goal of creating a wave of publicity for the recently opened sports bar in Kuta.
Happy at his handiwork, Chef Nyoman said he’s looking for an even larger oven that will accommodate future plans for an even larger hamburger.
