The 1926 is our official first day lunch at Londolozi but the chips never seem to get their fair due in acclaimation … they are easily worth asking for a double order!!!

Well, I had to wait a moment to stop salivating after seeing the burger and then reading the recipe. Now I’m ready to go out and buy some ground chuck and make one. Thank you Anna!

Would you please tell me what HP sauce is. Thanks Bill

Anna Ridgewell

Thanks Bill! HP Sauce is a brown sauce. HP stands for Houses of Parliament and is a classic UK sauce. Delcious with a bit of a kick.

Anna, Did they ever use wildebeest or impala or any other wild game for this?

Anna Ridgewell
Alumni: Executive Chef

HI Patrick, you could use a game meat for sure, we don’t with the 1926 burger.

Also, do you call those potato cuts, French fries, freedom fries or chips?

Anna Ridgewell
Alumni: Executive Chef

Thick cut chips! and then tossed in parmesan!
