Big 7 Travel’s acclaims Gasoline Grill’s burger as the best in the continent

A wise man once said: “Hamburgers. The cornerstone of any nutritious breakfast.” Later that day he had a moment of enlightenment and retired from being a hitman, just hours before his partner ended up getting killed on the john.

But enough with the spoilers: there’s plenty of those at McDonald’s and Burger King.

For the best “Mm-hmm! This is a tasty burger!” experience in Europe, look no further than our very own Gasoline Grill in Copenhagen.

With seven outlets in the capital region and counting, it’s quickly become the nation’s favourite.

Epic levels of tastiness
So it’s no surprise to see that Big 7 Travel has named it as the producer of the best burger in Europe.

“These guys are winning awards left, right and centre for their burgers around the world, and it’s not hard to see why. Epic levels of tastiness,” praised Big 7.

“The burgers are handground in-house daily, with crinkle fries golden and crispy and organic ingredients. Don’t let the line outside put you off – it moves quick, and these burgers are worth the wait.”

Completing the top five were Goiko Grill (Valencia), Burger And Beyond (London), 7Bone Burger Co (Portsmouth, UK) and VLND Burger (Tallinn, Estonia).

Odense and Aarhus earn some relish
Two other Danish establishments squeezed their way into the top 50.

At number 23 was Burger Anarchy in Odense, which Big 7 praised for its innovation and unusual ingredients.

“There’s wild boar meat with spices, palm of heart, and Applewood cheddar. But for a burger you’ll need to really tackle, order the Burgernator: it’s a huge 720g of beef with bacon, smoked cheddar and all the trimmings,” it noted.

And at number 27 was The Burger Shack in Aarhus, which Big 7 claimed “offers a unique taste experience with their tasty and award-winning burgers, parmesan and thyme French fries and their deep-fried chicken”. 

The “simply delicious” burgers, meanwhile, are “made from scratch with fresh ingredients, Danish free-range cattle and home-baked buns”.

A survey carried out by Megafon for TV2 has found that 71 percent of parents have handed over children to daycare in spite of them being sick.

Moreover, 21 percent of those surveyed admitted to medicating their kids with paracetamol, such as Panodil, before sending them to school.

The FOLA parents’ organisation is shocked by the findings.

“I think it is absolutely crazy. It simply cannot be that a child goes to school sick and plays with lots of other children. Then we are faced with the fact that they will infect the whole institution,” said FOLA chair Signe Nielsen.

Pill pushers
At the Børnehuset daycare institution in Silkeborg a meeting was called where parents were implored not to bring their sick children to school.

At Børnehuset there are fears that parents prefer to pack their kids off with a pill without informing teachers.

“We occasionally have children who that they have had a pill for breakfast,” said headteacher Susanne Bødker. “You might think that it is a Panodil more than a vitamin pill, if it is a child who has just been sick, for example.”

Parents sick and tired
Parents, when confronted, often cite pressure at work as a reason for not being able to stay at home with their children.

Many declare that they simply cannot take another day off, as they are afraid of being fired.

Allan Randrup Thomsen, a professor of virology at KU, has heavily criticised the parents’ actions, describing the current situation as a “vicious circle”.

“It promotes the spread of viruses, and it adds momentum to a cycle where parents are pressured by high levels of sick-leave. If they then choose to send the children to daycare while they are still recovering, they keep the epidemic going in daycares, and this in turn puts a greater burden on the parents.”
