Burger Theory in the media

Five Thousand - By Daniel Gladys
You are walking down the street like a centipede that has lost 98 of its legs. It's cold. You are hungry. Lonely. You want a burger bad, but that often ends up a dirrrty burger, a triple cheese or a stunner deal. Out of nowhere a graff-coated truck pulls up. It's OK, it's not a Wicked Camper full of Swedes or some hippies' love wagon. The shutter raises. The smell of delicious local beef fills the air, spicy burrito flavours lick at your nostrils, warm and salty chocolate cookies tease you like that girl Michelle you fancied in year 6. You want them bad. You've fallen into a sweet and savoury dream.
In our post-pie cart city Burger Theory are making street food in our town real, not just some wack dream, and they are jumping through bureaucratic hoops to make it happen. We're not talking soggy dawgs, or crunchy deep fried crickets, but delicious Coorong angus beef burgers, burritos stuffed full of "mole" black beans - I'm not sure what that means, but moles go deep and the best beans grow deep - and the icing on the cake, or cookie with your coffee, is just that. A cookie that everyone is talking about: Small Batch soft-baked with a thoughtful sprinkling of Murray River salt on top. What's next in the dream? We're all hanging in front of a whole line of dream wagons that are dispensing tasty treats.
