Walking down King Street in Newtown, one of Sydney's oldest suburbs, one's senses can become completely overwhelmed. Despite its colourful boutiques and a seemingly endless array of second-hand book stores, it's the tastebuds that really get the work-out with the strip's vast line of culinary delights. I've walked King Street many times and have counted over 140 pubs, restuarants and cafes along it.

These never stay static either. Constantly changing, upgrading, renaming and expanding one can always expect a new gastronomic adventure to greet them when visiting King Street.

Well, I'm determined to end that and achieve the near impossible: to feast from every restaurant/cafe/bar on King Street and live to tell the tale.

Burger Fuel

@ 172 King Street, Newtown

To date, there are three places along King completely dedicated to burgers; Burgerliccious, Moo Burgers and Burger Fuel. This upholds a commendable practice - to use as little packaging as possible. When receiving your burger, it'll not be wrapped, instead it's just placed neatly into your paper bag (made from recycled material). There is a cardboard holder to grab at the counter, whereby after you sit down, you'll drop your burger into this to help you hold it (and not get your hands dirty) while eating.

The burgers cater for all diets, from those who want to keep the kilojules down (the lightweights)to those who prefer not to have meat with their burger to those who prefer to go gourmet style with their bun and meat. Also on the menu are kumara fries which I strongly suggest you get aioli sauce to go with (it's the best!) and there are even soy options for the malt shakes (if you don't like soy, don't choose this option - you can't taste the shake for the soy milk!) if you're a picky eater with a need for some fuel to pick you up, there's only one place to go.
