"What makes The Beef Chief’s burgers the best? He is the master of combining savory, salty and spicy flavors to make a mouthwatering creation that will blow your socks off. While The Beef Chief has a variety of burger options, we always go for the KimChief if possible, with spicy homemade kimchi and sriracha. Dreamy."

"Once upon a time there was an epic burger battle. (Kimchi Radio’s Burger Beer Battle, to be exact.) And in the battle, despite the extremely high level of competition, The Beef Chief’s Berlin-inspired burgers won with a three-part flavor strategy: fresh, local, and simple. (And, luckily, pretty cheap.) Go for the spicy KimChief, kicking with homemade kimchi and sriracha."
