The Fat and Furious Burger Project

Lucy Freeland

If, like us, you dread yet another limp sarnie eaten at your desk, get excited by Fat and Furious Burgers. This ‘thinking outside the box’ initiative is the brainchild of Thomas and Quentin, who aim to revitalise the weekday lunch by cooking up whacky burgers, covering them in decoration and photographing them in ostentatious settings – all during their lunch break. So how did the humble burger become a work of art?

Having founded ‘Furious’ Graphic Design and Art Direction Studio, creativity comes naturally to the proactive pair, whose shots of arty burgers have now amassed thousands of followers on Instagram and Facebook.
Thomas and Quentin’s foodie projects follow particular themes, from Excaliburger, resembling granite, to the Burger d’Amour which comes trussed up like a giant toffee apple. Some burgers are painted and some come adorned with seeds, cocktail umbrellas and even wigs. This is not therefore, simply the making of a speedy fast food classic – it’s the tongue in cheek creation of something bizarrely beautiful.
Having now published a Fat and Furious Burger Cookbook with Michel Lafon, it seems not only are beautiful burgers bursting into the media mainstream, but will soon be arriving in our very own kitchens.

Since you are here, we would like to share our vision for the future of travel - and the direction Culture Trip is moving in.

Culture Trip launched in 2011 with a simple yet passionate mission: to inspire people to go beyond their boundaries and experience what makes a place, its people and its culture special and meaningful — and this is still in our DNA today. We are proud that, for more than a decade, millions like you have trusted our award-winning recommendations by people who deeply understand what makes certain places and communities so special.

Increasingly we believe the world needs more meaningful, real-life connections between curious travellers keen to explore the world in a more responsible way. That is why we have intensively curated a collection of premium small-group trips as an invitation to meet and connect with new, like-minded people for once-in-a-lifetime experiences in three categories: Culture Trips, Rail Trips and Private Trips. Our Trips are suitable for both solo travelers, couples and friends who want to explore the world together.

Culture Trips are deeply immersive 5 to 16 days itineraries, that combine authentic local experiences, exciting activities and 4-5* accommodation to look forward to at the end of each day. Our Rail Trips are our most planet-friendly itineraries that invite you to take the scenic route, relax whilst getting under the skin of a destination. Our Private Trips are fully tailored itineraries, curated by our Travel Experts specifically for you, your friends or your family.

We know that many of you worry about the environmental impact of travel and are looking for ways of expanding horizons in ways that do minimal harm - and may even bring benefits. We are committed to go as far as possible in curating our trips with care for the planet. That is why all of our trips are flightless in destination, fully carbon offset - and we have ambitious plans to be net zero in the very near future.
