I just had lunch at RUMI, and without a doubt, it was the absolutely best hambuger that I've eaten in Beijing. Though they did skimp a bit on the sauted mushrooms, the burger was very generous in size, juicy and with perfect flavour, excellent cheese addition, all the trimmings on the side, and the bun was with enough substance, but still soft and light enough compliment th burger. Excellent fries on the side, and they provided adequate containers of both catsup and a brown mustard in bowls on the side. Nothing else I've had in Beijing has compared.

I never would have thought of Rumi for a burger. Their meat is excellent, though, so its not a big stretch I guess.

Thanks for the tip!

Wouldn't it be great if Fuddrucker's opened in Beijing? Now they serve good hamburgers!

I always liked the burgers at the Den, how do they compare?

For those of you who don't know, RUMI is on Gongti Beilu, almost just across from Pacific Century Plaza, and the first building in from 3rd Ring East. The burger was far superior to the Den, and Grandma's Kitchen wasn't even in the ballpark. It was 49rmb, but it was a very generous portion and came with fantastic fries, and if you order at lunch, it comes with a bowl of (Persian) soup, and a dessert. The rest of the menu is a variety of Persian appettizers (mezza), kebobs and stews, which are all (mostly, with some exception) fantastic. By the way, the meat is halal. For those who don't know what that is, google.
