🍔 Lotteria 

롯데리아 

 
When it comes to Korea’s most popular burger franchise, Lotteria takes the crown. Founded in 1979, Lotteria has been a leader in the Korean fast food industry, serving up unique menu items that cater to local tastes. Unlike other franchises, Lotteria’s flavors are less intense and more subtle. So, what are the must-try items you can only find at Lotteria? 

JEONJU BIBIM RICE BURGER

This might just be a first for you! Inspired by Jeonju Bibimbap, one of Korea’s iconic dishes, the Jeonju Bibim Rice Burger uses rice buns instead of bread, topped with a soft-cooked egg that’s pure perfection when the yolk breaks. Add little spicy-sweet gochujang sauce, and you've got an unforgettable taste experience. 

HANWOO BULGOGI BURGER

Ever heard of Hanwoo, Korea’s prized beef? Known for its tenderness and juicy texture, Hanwoo takes center stage in this Bulgogi Burger. The patty is marinated in savory bulgogi sauce, creating a perfect balance of umami flavor with a hint of sweetness. This burger is a must-try if you're looking for a taste of Korea's unique beef flavors.

MIRACLE BURGER

Released in February 2020, the Miracle Burger is Lotteria’s vegan-friendly option, made without any animal ingredients. The 'meatless meat' patty is crafted from soy and wheat protein, topped with a plant-based sauce instead of egg, and even the bun is made from 100% plant-based ingredients. Its clean, mild flavor has made it a hit among those who prefer vegan food. 

Lotteria also offers other popular items, like the Korean-style Bulgogi Burger, which is deliciously coated in sweet and savory bulgogi sauce—a bite full of Korea’s classic flavors. For a unique side, try the deep-fried chili peppers! Stuffed with meat, they’re crispy and impossible to resist. 😁

🍗 Mom’s Touch 

맘스터치

 
A popular franchise where you can enjoy both burgers and chicken, Mom’s Touch is a huge hit in Korea. As the name suggests, it aims to deliver the wholesome, homemade taste of a mom’s cooking. Mom's Touch specializes in chicken-based burgers and is known for its tasty and juicy chicken patties that are loved by many. While they originally focused on chicken burgers, they’ve now expanded their menu variety. Today, we’re diving into some of Mom’s Touch’s signature chicken burgers. You'll be amazed at how delicious a chicken patty can be, so get ready!

SUPER THIGH BURGER

This is one of Mom’s Touch’s most famous and popular burgers. With a crispy and spicy chicken thigh patty paired with fresh lettuce, it’s a signature burger with the perfect balance. When you take a bite, the juiciness of the meat fills your mouth. And if this burger is a little too mild for your taste, try the Spicy Thigh Burger, topped with a spicy sauce for an extra kick.

INCREDIBLE BURGER

If you love a burger packed with ingredients, this one’s for you. It features a thick, whole chicken thigh patty, double ham, a fried egg, lettuce, and onions—so big it’s almost hard to fit in one bite. With the added ham and egg, it’s even more satisfying and flavorful. Before you take a bite, press it down with both hands, and get ready to stretch your jaw—this burger is seriously massive.
