Holy Cow! – a good fastfood burger in Zurich

On Saturday, we tried a new burger fastfood restaurant called "Holy Cow!" located in Zurich nearby Central.
The restaurant opened in spring 2013 so it's quite new and I don't think many people know this place because it's located on a quiet side street, parallel to Niederdorf.

For fastfood, the menu there is a lil too pricy and the hamburger patty tastes like 'real', good meat like in restaurants (and not like cheap meat from some big fastfood chains…) but since you can 'eat in' or order 'to go' and the meal is served very fast, it's literally a fastfood place. ;-)
They only use chicken, beef and bread from Switzerland and offer Swiss-made drinks like 'Süssmost', mineral water from the Swiss alps, Swiss ice tea, homemade sirup (which you can even refill for free), beer and even wine - all Swiss-made!

I ordered the "Bacon Avocado Beef"-set menu, a beef burger with smashed avocado, bacon and 'red onion jam'. The menu comes with fried potatoes and a drink; price CHF 19.90 (burger only: CHF 13.90).
The burger was good but personally, I didn't like the sweet onions… They really tasted like some kind of fruit jam with a slight onion taste…
But like already mentioned, the patty was good and the fries were freshly made, thick, still a lil crunchy on the outside, hot and not too salty.

Holy Cow also offer unusual burger toppings like blue cheese (!), chorizo, teriyaki with wasabi & ginger, apple cider chutney, basil mayo,... :) Need to try some next time!
