VTEC
The fully vegan burger, built on BurgerFuel’s own vegetable patty of mung dhal, cauliflower, kale, carrot, potato, hemp and onion. It comes with vegan cheese, avocado, grilled pineapple, salad, relish and vegan aioli. The patty is soft and savoury, the pineapple adds the Kiwi sweetness, and the whole thing tastes like vegetables done properly rather than an imitation.
