Epic burger battles
Burgers are in! But when were they 'out' though? Nevertheless, given that Dhaka today has a myriad range of some fantastic burgers and burger places than ever before, the 'burger fever' is indeed at its peak.

Read on for the epic burger battles and be sure to watch the entire video of the Burger Battle!
