Burger Wars Episode XXXIV: Lucky Wagon

Tell me about the buzz with street food here in London, so many bloggers posting about these places, twitting to share the exact location, and creating a huge snowball effect. Pop up restaurants, food trucks, underground places, and more. One of the new additions to this movement is Lucky Chip. I first read about it in Kang’s blog. A new contender in the street food fight for the heart of the Londoners.

Lucky Chip

The current location is the Netil Market near London Fields, the menu burgers, fries, and hot dogs. The variety 6 different burgers, 4 dogs, 5 fries, and 1 option of onion rings. No big queues like other vans, quality and tasty, prompt and excellent service.

It took me a while to decide, at the end I went for the El Chappo burger as it reminds me a very good old friend, Wasabi mayo and Ginger sweet chilli fries, and a Lucky Dog because they ran out of Chili Dogs.

El Chappo

The El Chappo comes with smoked bacon, blue cheese, roasted jalapenos, garlic aioli, and crest. The Lucky dog fried bacon wrapped hotdog with pickles.

Chappo, Chappo, Chappo, Chappo, and more Chappo

The verdict, Amazing, I just love the place, the flavour was excellent, the bacon, blue cheese, jalapenos combination is a win win. It was so tasty and good I didn’t care the burger was medium instead of medium rare. The Lucky dog was good, not as good as the burger, it was a shame they ran out of chilli dogs I was looking forward to trying those ones. The fries were good, the wasabi mayo superb, the ginger sweet not my cup of tea but the combination and the fries were superior to other street food places.

The damage, 16 quids for the hotdog, the burger, the fries, and a coke.

The conclusion, Brilliant, I sincerely think is better than the meatwagon, and no queue!!! I just love it. I will give them a 7.5 in my scale and definitely a solid 10 for street food.

Go and judge by yourself, 3 months operating in North London, open Wednesdays to Sundays 12:30 ‘till late.

This contender situation reminds me the Seinfeld episode “The Apartment

Janice: I've never been able to be with just one person. I can, however, carry on strictly physical relationships which can last for years and years. It's a shame you're married...
George: I'm not. It's just a sociological experiment!
Janice: Please…
Jerry: You have no idea what an idiot. Elaine just gave me a chance to get out and I didn't take it. This is an idiot.
George: Is that right? I just threw away a lifetime of guilt-free sex and floor seats for ever sporting event in Madison Square Garden. So please, a little respect. For I am Costanza. Lord of the Idiots!
Roxanne: You're all winners!
George: But suddenly, a new contender has emerged.

Let me get you down, ‘cause I’m going to London Fields

Last weekend I had the chance to pass by London Fields for the independent free festival “Little London Fields”, the place had the typical entertainment, two stages with live music, food, dance den, and even a celebrity graveyard karaoke.

Little London Fields Festival

And if that wasn't enough just south of the park you can access Broadway Market. As usual I wandered around the market to see the different vendors and stalls. Since the first time I visited the market I’ve been curious to try the crepe stall, usually they have the longest queue in the market, so it was time to see and judge their food. They serve crepes and galette, I went for the second one, a classic galette with has ham, cheese, and mushrooms. You can also have different combinations with these ingredients plus spinach, and eggs. Moreover, If you want something sweet you can try the classic crepes.  

Crepes & Galette Stall

The food was amazing, that’s the reason why the huge popularity of the stall, also the staff is really friendly and chatty. So if you’re around Cambridge Heat area, take your time and pass by the market to try these amazing crepes and have a laugh with the small talk of the French staff.

Classic Galette
Ready to enjoy

This entire crepe incident reminds me the Seinfeld episode “The English Patient” when Jerry is visiting his parents in Florida.

Jerry: This is quite a condo.
Morty: The Mandelbaums own the Magic Pan restaurants.
Jerry: The crepe place?
Morty: Yeah. This is all big crepe money.
Jerry: There's crepe money?
