International Hamburger Day: Your Way
Monday 25 May, 2026
There are few foods more universally loved than the hamburger. Simple, satisfying and endlessly customisable, burgers have become a staple for everything from casual family dinners to elevated weekend entertaining. With International Hamburger Day landing on 28 May, it is the perfect excuse to celebrate one of the world’s favourite comfort foods.
What makes hamburgers so enduring is their versatility. They can be classic and nostalgic or elevated and gourmet. Some prefer a traditional beef burger with lettuce, tomato and beetroot, while others lean into slow cooked brisket, spicy relishes and artisan breads. However you build yours, the quality of the ingredients makes all the difference.
For those inspired to create burgers at home, Kiaora Place has everything needed to take your burger night to the next level. At 1888 Certified, premium quality beef is front and centre. Their ready made burger patties are ideal for an easy dinner, while their beef mince offers the perfect base for homemade patties mixed with your own herbs, spices and flavour combinations. For something more indulgent, a slow cooked beef brisket can transform a simple burger into a true centrepiece. While there, it is also worth picking up a gourmet relish or chilli jam to add depth and personality to your final creation.
Bread matters just as much as the filling, and Bake Bar delivers options well beyond the standard bun. Their range of artisan rolls and focaccia creates a more refined burger experience, whether you are after soft milk buns, crusty rolls or something more rustic and textural.
Then there are the essentials. Woolworths makes it easy to stock up on fresh salad ingredients, cheese, sauces and classic burger additions…..no burger feels complete without beetroot!
Of course, not everyone wants to cook. If leaving it to the professionals sounds more appealing, White Rabbit’s much loved White Rabbit Beef Burger remains a local favourite and an easy way to mark the occasion without lifting a finger.
Whether you are grilling at home or dining out, International Hamburger Day is a reminder that great food is often the simplest. Visit Kiaora Place, the vibrant heart of Double Bay, and celebrate your way.
