An Ode To Kissproof’s Royale Cheeseburger

Strap yourself in because we’re about to introduce you to hands-down the best cheeseburger in Beirut (and perhaps even in Lebanon).

The photos below may be of the cheeseburger, and not the Royale with Cheese, but you get the gist

Head to Badaro’s iconic all-day pub and restaurant Kissproof where you’ll find the most addictive burger in town. Alongside making some of the most well-crafted cocktails in town, their unique and tiny menu boasts satisfying meals made with quality ingredients.


Their Royale With Cheese burger will remind you of the beloved Happy Prince burger that we all loved and miss. Sink your teeth into the pillow-y bun and you’ll be met with a succulent beef patty decorated with caramelized onions. Dill pickles will provide the perfect cut of acidity to the fatty meat, and kewpie mayo brings the whole dish together to make it the tastiest bite in town.


If you are not feeling up for a cheeseburger (weird), you can try out their smoked areesheh labneh that is served with crusty bread and fantastic olive oil. Also on the menu are a charred corn salad and a grilled cheese sandwich that feels like a warm hug.


Enjoy!
