| Ata Altay Agva & Rashad Khialov / BURGER RESPONSE / COMD 357 Multimedia Journalism İlkbahar 2022-2023 Listeleme Projesi Let’s Travel, See, Eat: So Where Will We Visit? As the weather warms up, we’ve visited four different kitchens for our dear followers. In today’s article, we hope to provide you with comprehensive information about the places we visited in Ankara. Our aim is to give you an idea of how we will shape our blog, and to get your feedback on how we should proceed. Our focus today is on the best burgers that you can find in Ankara, which will provide you with a unique experience. We have gathered information about the places we visited, and we will share our opinions about these fantastic burgers and restaurants. So without further ado, let’s get to know the places we’ve chosen to examine a little better. 1. Sofa Burger The first place we visited and would like to share with you is Sofa Burger, a small boutique burger joint located in the peaceful environment of Umitkoy, Mutlukent. As soon as you enter the place, you are greeted with a nice and calm ambiance that radiates positive energy. You can enjoy your time in the garden of the place as well. During our visit, we had a little chat with the owner of Sofa Burger and learned that they used to serve homemade foods before switching to burgers. The meat they use in their burgers consists of 90% beef and 10% lamb and each patty weighs 120 grams. They make their own bread in their own kitchen, which is buttered and soft. We tried two of their most popular burgers, the truffle burger, and the goat burger. Although we liked the truffle burger, it wasn’t our favorite, even though the patty was juicy. On the other hand, the goat burger was a winner, and its unique taste was due to the fact that there are not many places in Ankara that use goat cheese. The goat cheese was melted perfectly, creating a sweet and sour flavor. The burgers were filling, served with crispy and delicious fries if you still have room for them. The prices were reasonable compared to other burger cafes/restaurants. Sofa Burger is definitely a place we recommend you try. The location of Sofa Burger in Ankara is quite convenient, as it is easily accessible by public transportation. We enjoyed our experience at Sofa Burger, and we would love to hear your thoughts if you decide to give it a try. Address : Mutlukent Mah. Mutlukoy Sitesi 1948.Sok.

Our second stop was Smash N’out in Beytepe. Firstly, we must mention that they have been delivering delicious food to their customers since 1985, which is an impressive feat. As soon as we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a friendly atmosphere, comfortable seating, and spotless cleanliness. The employees emanated good vibes and were knowledgeable about the menu, which made the ordering process smooth and fast.
They recommended their specialty “dana yanak” burger, and also suggested that we try the “double cheeze” burger with onion rings, so that we can share our opinion about the taste with our followers. We immediately noticed the unique taste of their sauces, which were all homemade and customizable from the menu, as well as the aroma of their meat. The meat was cooked for 10 hours straight under heavy fire, which resulted in a flavorful and juicy patty. Furthermore, they made their own sauces and buns, which made their ingredients even more unique.
The pricing was also reasonable, considering the price-performance ratio. We thoroughly enjoyed the burgers, and believe that they were one of the best burgers we have ever tasted. Additionally, to our surprise, they also made incredible tiramisus for a burger restaurant, which we highly recommend trying.
