Bangkok--25 Oct--CHAR Bangkok
CHAR Restaurant & CHAR Rooftop Bar at Hotel Indigo Bangkok Wireless Road combines the best of French reds with American burgers with Burgers & Bordeaux. Every Thursday, CHAR features burger specialities straight from iconic eateries across the US, perfectly prepared to match the bold flavours of the French Bordeaux wines also highlighted.
Burgers are a classic American dish, which have been elevated to more than ground meat encased in a bun. CHAR pays homage to three mouth-watering favourites from three celebrated restaurants from its heartland:
- Super Smash, aka The Lace Burger (THB 250++): Since 1959, Carl's Drive-In in St. Louis, Missouri, has tempted diners with a luscious burger, smashed so the juices cook into a lace around the patty. Served with American cheese, chopped onions, pickles, french fries, and homemade sauce.
- The Fried Burger (THB 370++): For over a hundred years, visitors to Memphis, Tennessee, have indulged in Dyer's Burgers. Passing on the grill, they deep fry their burgers. Served with double cheddar cheese, sliced onions, pickles, french fries, and homemade sauce.
- Oklahoma Onion Burger (THB 250++): Established in 1970, Sid's Diner in El Reno, Oklahoma, has made a name for itself for having the best onion burgers around. Served with grilled onion ribbons, American cheese, french fries, and homemade sauce.
To complement any of these delectable meals, CHAR has selected three medium-bodied Bordeaux wines from France, each effortlessly drinkable and bold to hold their own with these burger creations:
- Thunevin Bad Boy, Mauvais Garcon Rouge, Bordeaux, 2015: Merlot and Cabernet Franc blend for cherry, herb, and mixed berry notes (THB 500++ / glass, THB 2,500++ / bottle).
- Château Massereau Bordeaux Superieur, 2016: Merlot, Cabernet Sauvignon, and Cabernet Franc create a sense of sage, cherries, and leather (THB 450++ / glass, THB 2,200++ / bottle).
- Château Clarisse Puisseguin St. Emilion JS, 2016: Merlot and Cabernet Franc elicits black cherry, mulberry, and ginger (THB 580++ / glass, THB 2,900++ / bottle).
