We all have been in the
situation when 1 or 2 burgers are not enough and then we are torn between
ordering another one or just ordering some crunchy sides; well Johnny Rockets
has found a way out by introducing an All You Can Eat aka A la Carte menu!!
With unlimited burgers, sides, salads and shakes starting at just Rs.449, who
needs to think now.
As you enter their outlet, an
enthusiastic staff and many a time the diners shout out to welcome you, from
that moment itself the experience starts. To ease out the process of ordering
both for the customer and for the staff you now have to write your name and
tick on all that you want to order. 6 basic patty options paired with 6
signature flavours; now that is a permutation and combination one would like to
do. I started with the Smoke House Burger, thick cut strips of smoked bacon,
cheddar cheese, onion rings and a lamb patty smothered with BBQ sauce. You can
also substitute the patty for a paneer or chicken one. Then came the rock star Rocket Burger, a heaven for the vegans it had a
succulent paneer patty with a crisp, fresh lettuce leaf, tomato, onion, cheddar
cheese and their special sauce. Also, one can choose between a whole wheat bun
or brioche.
Now, burgers were obviously the
star product but what really made me fall in love with this A la Carte concept
was the sides. Unlimited cheesy fries; these three words definitely can take
anyone’s breath away. Crunchy onion rings, masaledar tater tots, super juicy
spiced sausages; I just cannot recall how many of these I had. We also tried
the oreo shake which kind of gave us a sugar rush. They also have a salad
option which frankly I didn’t try as I was blindfolded with the goodness of
burgers and tots.
I also had a small conversation
with Chef. Bakshish Dean, the person who played a vital role in helping Johnny
Rockets to enter the Indian market. He has been in the industry for 23 years
now, a man with so much experience up his sleeve was the right person to ask
the difference between the Indian and western food preferences. According to
him in countries like US they are inclined towards enjoying the taste of the
patty whereas in India we lean towards the condiments or add-ons.
Each year, Johnny Rockets serves
17 million Hamburgers, 11.3 million soda pops, 8.3 million Shakes and Malts, 8
million pounds of Fries, 2.1 million orders of Onion Rings and 815,000 gallons
of ice cream; and frankly now we will be adding to this count even more. Guests at Ambience Mall, Gurgaon and DLF
Promenade, Vasant Kunj outlets can enjoy a six-course meal starting from
pre-appetizers, appetizers, Johnny Rockets signature shakes and burgers to
salads and desserts.
Well as
they say at Johnny Rockets good times roll and now with this new influx of
unlimited food it will be our bellies and tummies rolling with joy!
