      <title>Hache Burger Connoisseurs - Brilliant burgers by chrisp</title>

Diligently and objectively they rate each example from outlets as varied as Ed&#39;s Diner and Joe Allen, but still their favourite is that served at Hach&#0195;&#0169; in Camden - it gets 14/15, which I&#39;m guessing is pretty hard to top.<br /><br />Well, I&#39;m not as diligent or objective as the Food and Drink in London boys, and I&#39;m not going to waste my time traipsing around London eating mediocre burgers when all the hard work has been done for me. So on Saturday afternoon, dodging the pouring rain, I walked over Albert Bridge to Hach&#0195;&#0169; in Chelsea, the second outlet in the capital after the wildly popular Camden branch.<br /><br />I have often railed against restaurants that try to be all things to all people, and end up being nothing to anyone. You can spot them a mile off, with their huge yet strangely timid menus, dishes plucked seemingly at random from all corners of the globe with nothing connecting them except a total and spectacular failure in execution. And here, delightfully, at the other end of that scale is Hach&#0195;&#0169;, unapologetically selling nothing but burgers and burger accessories. A hundred different types of burgers, sure, made out of anything from venison to lamb to tuna (oh and beef as well of course), but still recognisable as burgers, tasty thick patties inside a toasted bun.<br /><br />I was just on the verge of ordering the classic &#39;Au naturel&#39; when the Catalan variation caught my eye, topped with chorizo and spiced with fresh red chilli.<br /><br />The beef itself was rich and flavoursome and cooked perfectly medium-rare. The chorizo added a lovely crispy layer, and although I could have done with a bit more of a chilli hit this was quickly rectified by dropping in a couple of the tiny red birds-eye chillies that came with a halloumi side. There&#39;s absolutely nothing better than the first bite into a huge tasty burger, as you work through the crusty bun, past the crunchy topping and deep into the glistening, moist meat. Add in the extra note from the fiery chillies and this becomes pretty much the best burger I&#39;ve had in London. Which is pretty much what I was expecting, so it was just as well.<br /><br />From what I can gather, the variations on the theme served to my fellow diners were just as successful. We were particularly amused by the "low calorie" version which came with just as much gorgeous fatty meat but substituted the top half of the bun for a green salad. I&#39;m guessing the brains behind Hach&#0195;&#0169; have decided that if you can convince the local Sloanes that swapping a bit of bread for dressed rocket counts as the healthy option, even if you sneak through just as much of the good stuff, you&#39;re on to a winner.<br /><br />In the same corner of the city that Tom Aitken has decided needs somewhere you can buy a mediocre fish and chips for &#0194;&#0163;25, it warms the cockles of the heart to discover there are people willing to serve the best hamburger in London for a measly &#0194;&#0163;6.50. As you can probably gather, I really loved Hach&#0195;&#0169;, with its straightforward hearty food, sparkling friendly service and bright and trendy dining room.

Instead of getting a single round pizza your orders are merged together in an uber-pizza in a rectangle shape.

Instead of getting a single round pizza your orders are merged together in an uber-pizza in a rectangle shape.  Suddlenly 2 or 3 pizzas look huge as they come on a giant wooden platter that sits in the middle of the table.  And 4 pizzas well it starts to look like a monster&#33;<br /><br />No question that this is a tasty and fun place with a relaxing and non chain atmosphere (a little deceiving as their card tells me they have 6 places in London as part of the Made in Italy Group).<br /><br />I would have given it 4 if the staff were just a little friendlier...however, I suppose it is being an authentic Italian ;-)<br /><br />It get&#39;s v busy so worth booking esp on prime evenings like Thurs/ Fri.]]></description>

The venue in Fulham is extremly convenient as it is right next to the cinema, so you can treat yourself in many manners on a night out. Pricewise...

Thanks for pointing that out guys... :) <br /><br />I feel as though I (or should I say we) have discovered a little gem. <br /><br />Trip 1: Dinner on Thursday night<br />We (2 girls with a good appitite) arrived at 7:30 to a fairly quiet resturant. The staff were very attentive and allowed us to poor over the menu for an extended amount of time. Still undecided on what to order due to so many good options, we opted to share some crispy duck pancakes to start (about &#0194;&#0163;6.40 for 1/4 duck) while we munched on the delicious entree we took the opportunity to watch other peoples dishes go by. Just when we had almost decided on our order we saw some cripsy noodles go past and decided since it looked huge, that we&#39;d share that after realising how filling our entree was. We were delighted with our choice.. crispy beef noodles (approx &#0194;&#0163;5.??) - although the serve was not as generous as I first thought we were stuffed and left very satisfied. <br /><br />Trip 2: Dinner on Friday night<br />After such a good experinece the night before, I just had to go back to Huy Hoang again and try some of my favourite Vietnamese dishes... it was a lot busier and by the time we left the resturant was near full but the staff still delivered great service. We ordered some fried mushrooms (approximately &#0194;&#0163;2.80) to start (picture to follow at some point), and a pork and prawn golden pancake (approx &#0194;&#0163;5.40) both delishous.. For our mains I ordered a traditional Vietnamese noodle soup with beef (Approx &#0194;&#0163;5.30 for a large).. which I decided would be the comparison dish... and they passed with flying colours.. it was maybe a bit small but full of flavour and a fresh lift. We also ordered a main of chicken cooked with lemongrass and chilli  (approx &#0194;&#0163;5.40 + &#0194;&#0163;1.80 for rice) this dish was also fantastic... with amazing flavours. <br /><br />In summary, if I had to make a complaint about this place it would only be that the servings appear small (but somehow always fill you up). The tables for two are a bit small too. That aside, although the prices are slightly more than what you pay around Old Street, I definitley think its worth it for those in the SW area who don&#39;t want to hike across town for some scummy food. <br /><br />Great food, great service.. too many new dishes to try.. I&#39;ll be back agian.. and again :)   I saw this place on Trusted Places and although I have walked past it many times, I had never noted that it was a Vietnamese resturant.
