Brisbane might be bustling with more burger places than satisfied stomachs can handle, but the next addition to the meat-and-bread fold is still cause for excitement and then some. After delighting diners in a former secondhand bookshop down Burleigh Heads way, Gold Coast favourite Ze Pickle is setting up shop in Fortitude Valley.

If you're wondering why you should get your tastebuds in a twist, other than Ze Pickle's ace name, then let us enlighten you on their menu. Ever wondered what a burger with corn chips, Kanye's fried cheese sticks, bacon-laced waffle buns fashioned entirely from mac 'n' cheese, or made between two grilled cheese sandwiches tastes like (yes, cheese is big here)? Well, you'd best get on the Pablo Escobar, 3am and 4.20am offerings — as well as the famous beef, cheese, bacon and pulled pork-laden Triple Loco — pronto.

Those with a sweet tooth needn't despair, nor shy away from mixing their meal with dessert. The Cronut Burger's reputation precedes, it — and yes, it really does slap a wagyu been patty on everyone's favourite hybrid pastry treat, then tops it with Nutella bacon. Nutella bacon. With deep fried Oreos in doughnut batter served with Messina white chocolate hazelnut gelato and liquid Nutella, the aptly named Oreogasm hails from more traditional after-main territory.

At Burleigh, the American-influenced burgers and other bites aren't the only drawcard, and we're sure Ze Pickle's laidback bar vibes — and drinks menu to match — will continue in its second venue. An alternating array of craft beers course through their taps, and then there's the cocktail list. Who can pass up a Kim Karpassionfruit, Hood Juice or the on-theme Bacon Old Fashioned?

Find Ze Pickle at 1 Prospect Street, Fortitude Valley from November 21, or visit their website and Facebook page for more information.
