Neil Perry's Burger Project Is Coming to Brisbane

Get ready to chow down on mouthwatering Neil Perry hamburgers. Since opening in Sydney's World Square in October 2014, the celebrity chef's high-end fast food joint Burger Project has become a favourite with Sydney foodies, serving up a variation of his iconic Rockpool beef burger at a fraction of the price. Now, after cutting the red ribbon on his first Melbourne burger joint just the other week, he's announced that the Burger Project will be coming to Brisbane in 2017.

Perry's a busy guy, you see. Along with opening his newest store in Melbourne's new luxury shopping precinct St Collins Lane, he's also committed to opening another in the city in September along with three more Sydney venues this year. Then comes our turn. In 2017, another six Burger Project stores are slated to open along the east coast in the first half of 2017 — and Brisbane has been named as the location of at least one of the new stores.

So, what exactly do they serve at The Burger Project, anyway? Well, Perry is sticking closely to the winning World Square formula, so you can expect a variety of tried-and-tested tasty burgers including the Magic Mushroom, the spicy fried chicken katsu and of course the classic American cheeseburger. Side options include chips with salt or chipotle chilli, and crispy hot wings with Sichuan pepper. And for dessert, dive into one of their decadent ice cream creations such as the Blueberry Pie or The Bounty Hunter with vanilla bean ice cream with chocolate sauce, toasted coconut and crushed meringue. Don't act like you're not impressed.

Burger Project is set to open in Brisbane in early 2017. Stay glued to burgerproject.com for more updates.
