There are just too many spots on our bucket list, and it&#8217;s been hard to make the time (and money) to try them all.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DQ6m_a3Dbqe\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <h3 id=\"h-what-we-ordered\" class=\"wp-block-heading\">What we ordered<\/h3>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Right off the bat, we love that their menu is straight to the point. With only three burger options available, it&#8217;s great for indecisive foodies that hate overcomplicated menus. Though there are some off-menu items you can order, you can stick to the basics if it&#8217;s your first time visiting.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DXMJXtFDcTL\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Here&#8217;s what we ordered:<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>The Mayor <\/strong>\u2014 The best seller that their team will most likely recommend if you&#8217;re opting for beef. Made with onions, American cheese, pickles, and their chef sauce.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Side Chick<\/strong> \u2014 For the fried chicken lovers, this burger is made with lettuce, pickles, and aged cheddar cheese. You can always opt to switch out the fried chicken with a grilled option.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These were a great first impression as picky burger eaters. The Mayor strikes the perfect balance because you can properly taste the meat, and the sauce doesn&#8217;t overpower the flavors. Meanwhile, the Side Chick is a solid choice for traditionalists who prefer to keep things simple, with a crispy chicken fillet and familiar flavors that don&#8217;t try too hard to reinvent the classic chicken sandwich.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DRUuBAijdy5\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Pops on the Block<\/strong> \u2014 This is basically bite-sized golden and crispy chicken that you can order as an appetizer. <\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">While we didn&#8217;t feel queasy after the burgers, it probably would have been the better choice to share the popcorn chicken with a larger group of friends rather than just two people. They were only <em>slightly<\/em> overdone, which made them a little dry after a while, especially once we&#8217;d made our way through most of the portion.<\/p>    <div style=\"height:40px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <h3 id=\"h-what-we-loved-about-urban-onion\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>What we loved about Urban Onion<\/strong><\/h3>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">On those days when you&#8217;re craving a burger that won&#8217;t make you regret your life decisions once you&#8217;re done, this Gemmayze spot does the job. Urban Onion is actually one of the few spots that serves no-frills burgers in the city.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It&#8217;s actually a lot harder than it should be to find simple bites that don&#8217;t overwhelm your palate halfway through the meal, but Urban Onion gets the basics right without relying on gimmicks or excess.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/reel\/DW1Vt12je4W\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">And their fries were surprisingly the best thing about the meal. We don&#8217;t really expect much from French fries as a side, but they were perfectly golden and crispy. <\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <h3 id=\"h-the-downsides\" class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>The downsides<\/strong><\/h3>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It opens at 6:30 PM, and it&#8217;s kind of a bummer if you want to have lunch midday on a weekend. It&#8217;s better for those days when you and your friends want to have a bite before you go bar hopping in Mar Mikhael.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We&#8217;re going to list this as a downside (but it&#8217;s not Urban Onion&#8217;s fault): we didn&#8217;t have any room left for dessert. The food was so filling, and we unfortunately couldn&#8217;t bring ourselves to have any of their desserts. Maybe next time.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>   <iframe title=\"Embedded Instagram Post\" allowtransparency=\"true\" allowfullscreen=\"true\" frameborder=\"0\" height=\"532\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/DX6LbqCDVvk\/embed\/\" scrolling=\"no\" style=\"background: white; max-width: 540px; width: calc(100% - 2px); border-radius: 3px; border: 1px solid rgb(219, 219, 219); box-shadow: none; display: block; margin: 12px 0px 12px !important; min-width: 326px; padding: 0px;\"><\/iframe>   <div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For more information, make sure to check out their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/urban.onion\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Instagram<\/a>. <\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\ud83d\udccd Location<\/strong><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gemmayze, next to <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/philandwilldeligourmet\/?hl=en\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Phil &amp; Will<\/a> <\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Click here for the exact location.<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\u23f0 Opening Hours<\/strong><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Daily from 6:30 PM until 2:30 AM<\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>\ud83d\udcde Contact<\/strong><\/p>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">+961 70 769 356<\/p>    <div style=\"height:30px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>    <p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you enjoyed this read, check out the #Burgers section on our website for more.
