Love burgers and empanadas? DE NADAS, the UK’s first empanadería specialising in Argentinian hand-shaped empanadas and cult-burger brand Tommi’s Burger Joint, are partnering to create the Burgernada alongside a very special Argentinian-style burger: the T.T.B (Tommi’s Tango Burger).
Launching on the 11th August to celebrate National Burger Day on 21st August, and available until the 31st, the partnership will celebrate a shared love of the world’s most popular dishes – burgers and empanadas. The specials also reflect Tommi Tómasson’s, the founder of Tommi’s, obsession with tango after losing himself in Buenos Aires for a year in the early 2000s to learn the dance.
The hand-shaped and freshly baked Burgernada will be available at all De Nadas shops for £4 and Tommi’s in Marylebone will feature a Tommi’s Tango Burger (T.T.B), which will be served with a deep-fried mini Burgernada with every order for £14.
The Burgernada has been created with Tommi’s exclusive burger blend with aged Hereford beef, melted American cheese, chopped US-style pickles and Tommi’s signature burger sauce, encased in De Nadas pastry and hand-shaped in the traditional Argentinian repulgue method.
The Tommi’s Tango Burger (T.T.B) will feature a thick Argentinian-style beef patty, De Nadas chimichurri, which is home-made with oregano, garlic and chilli, as well as melted provolone, the Italian cheese popular in Argentina, and topped with a mini deep-fried Burgernada.
DE NADAS was created to give Argentinian empanadas the cult-like status they deserve in the UK. Opening in August 2022 in Notting Hill’s Golborne Road, De Nadas has gone on to open a further three empanaderías in London: Shoreditch, Stoke Newington and Bethnal Green (where all its 15 different hand-shaped empanadas are made).
Tommi’s Burger Joint was created by Tommi Tómasson in Reykjavík in 2004. It has nine burger joints in Iceland, its flagship London restaurant in Marylebone and burger joints across Germany and Denmark. Tommi’s is known for championing premium ingredients with a focus on provenance and simplicity. In a world of Tik Tok burgers, instabrands and smash burgers, Tommi’s is dedicated to keeping the classics alive.
