What makes a smash burger different at Double Roti?
Double Roti's smash burgers use fresh beef patties that are pressed hard onto a hot griddle — creating a crispy, caramelised crust via the Maillard reaction. The result is a thinner patty with significantly more flavour surface area than a traditional burger. The Double Smashed Chipotle Chicken Burger uses two such smashed patties stacked.
