VIP 13
The showpiece of the Black Angus line: a black bun with a Black Angus beef patty, mushrooms, feta and cheddar, tomato, lettuce, red onion rings and pickles. What makes it unusual is the sweet side: caramelised pear and blackcurrant jam, finished with a house sauce with truffle oil. The black bun matches the gloves and the brand.

About Black Star Burger
Black Star Burger opened on 17 September 2016 on Novy Arbat in Moscow, backed by Black Star, the record label of the rapper Timati. The launch was pure celebrity marketing: the queue on opening day was entered into the Russian book of records as the largest dancing queue, 668 people. Burgers came with black disposable gloves so nobody got sauce on their hands, and the gloves became the chain’s calling card.
Restaurants across Russia and franchises in several neighbouring countries; the network has shrunk and regrown since its 2021 peak.
