Yeoksam burgers before a salon visit: bacon & double cheese, Daily Fix

Where is Daily Fix Gangnam Main Branch?

Daily Fix Gangnam Main Branch is a burger place near Yeoksam Station, right in front of Sindonggung Gamjatang. I'd walked past it a few days ago and always noticed it, and it turns out a famous singer featured it as a great restaurant, which made it a well-known burger spot in Yeoksam, so I went :)

Daily Fix Gangnam Main Branch🍔

It's right in front of Sindonggung Gamjatang (pork bone soup) at Yeoksam Station~!

Here's the restaurant,🌝 and even though it was neither lunch nor dinner time, there were tons of delivery orders while we were there, and lots of people were getting takeout or eating in.

What is the atmosphere like at Daily Fix?

Inside, the ceiling is high and there are seats on the 2nd floor too, and the vibe suits a burger place really well -! Unlike a typical hamburger joint, the interior reminds you of an American diner. It's casual but has atmosphere, so it'd be nice for a light meal with friends or a partner.

I was also impressed by the chefs' background: I heard the brand was created by chefs who graduated from the CIA, the American culinary school, and worked at well-known restaurants in New York. Maybe that's why it felt like American-style burgers that care about ingredients and cooking, rather than ordinary fast food.

The Stella draft beer here is rumored to be great, but I had a hair salon appointment right after eating, so sadly I couldn't order one today🤣

What did we order at Daily Fix?

We ordered the bacon cheeseburger, the double cheeseburger, thick fries and cola. The bacon cheeseburger is famous as the burger a famous singer raved about, and the double cheeseburger is a hot menu item! We also got the thick fries that everyone at Daily Fix Yeoksam says are delicious, and the refillable cola🍟🥔

Since these are handmade burgers, they don't come out the moment you order, so they brought the cola first, and the cola looked so pretty!! haha The pin spotlights overhead give warm-toned lighting that makes photos come out well and is great for pretty selfies!!💡

What makes the Daily Fix bacon cheeseburger special?

The Daily Fix bacon cheeseburger is the signature item, made with house-made bacon, a 100% Hanwoo patty and cheese. After a short wait, the fries with their overwhelming look, the bacon cheeseburger and the double cheeseburger came out, and the bacon cheeseburger is what Daily Fix presents as its signature! They say what makes it special is the bacon they make themselves!

Unlike the thin bacon we usually eat, I heard it's made with lots of time and care. On top of that come a patty made from 100% Hanwoo and cheese. It's a style where the salty savoriness of the bacon, the rich flavor of the meat patty and the nuttiness of the cheese go well together!🧀🍔

When I eat a handmade burger, sauce matters, but I think it's also important that you can really taste the meat itself. I think the bacon cheeseburger is especially good for people who like a rich meat flavor. Turns out it's also known as the burger a famous singer introduced on YouTube!!

What kind of burger is the Daily Fix double cheeseburger?

The Daily Fix double cheeseburger is a classic American-style cheeseburger focused on two Hanwoo patties and cheese. If the bacon cheeseburger adds the flavor of bacon, the double cheeseburger is closer to a more classic American cheeseburger! With two Hanwoo patties, the meat clearly takes center stage.

If you love cheeseburgers, you know how much the combination of meat and cheese matters. A burger centered on patty and cheese, rather than flavored with lots of complicated toppings, makes the taste of the ingredients feel more important.

Bacon cheeseburger vs double cheeseburger: which to choose?

Both burgers are centered on meat, but I think you can choose according to your taste.

• Bacon cheeseburger if you like rich bacon flavor
• Double cheeseburger if you like the combination of meat and cheese

How are the thick fries at Daily Fix?

The thick fries at Daily Fix are a side where you get a crispy outside and a fluffy inside together. It's a bit disappointing to eat a hamburger without fries, right? haha Personally, I think thick fries like these have a different charm from thin ones.

If thin fries are mostly about crunch, thick fries let you enjoy the crispy outside and the fluffy potato inside together. If you like the texture of the potato itself, try the thick fries🥔🍟 Add a cold cola and the burger combo is complete. :)

Why are handmade burgers so good?

A well-made handmade burger place definitely has its charm. First, a shop's personality shows in the thickness and doneness of the patty and the combination of ingredients. Even with the same cheeseburger, the taste varies quite a lot depending on which meat is used, how the patty is cooked, and how the cheese and sauce are combined.

Another plus is that at places that prepare their own ingredients, you can experience a flavor unique to that shop. What impressed me at Daily Fix, a Yeoksam Station favorite, is that they make not only the Hanwoo patty but also the bacon, pastrami and sauces themselves. With a handmade burger, it's less about eating just a hamburger and more about enjoying how each ingredient comes together.

Do I recommend Daily Fix for lunch near Yeoksam Station?

The burgers at Daily Fix were so good that I even got some to take home. As a hamburger meal, the healthy taste of a handmade burger kept me full for a long time, and it was a good day finding a tasty burger place with lots of American feel after so long - if you're craving a handmade burger near Yeoksam Station or can't decide on lunch, I recommend Daily Fix!
