After finishing my work in Rajshahi today, @NahidHossain Bhai and I started looking for the best burger in town. Neither of us had a clear idea, so we started searching Google Maps to find a place with good burgers and also nice spots for taking photos.
After looking for a while, we found a restaurant called “Helium.” The reviews and interior photos looked nice, so we decided to go there.
We took a rickshaw and went to Helium. As soon as we entered, we liked the place — it was spacious, nicely decorated, and had a good atmosphere. After placing our order, we walked around the restaurant. There were some beautiful spots made just for taking pictures. We also took a few photos.
The best part was their open kitchen. We could see the full cooking process right in front of us. We got our food even before the expected time.
We ordered two types of burgers, both were new to us. One interesting thing, they gave hand gloves with the burgers, so it was easier to eat without making a mess.
The burgers were so big that it was hard to finish them all at once. We were eating slowly and talking about the food. At one point, one of the staff came to ask for our feedback. I used the chance to show him how to give a review on Google Maps.
Overall, it was a great experience. This was one of the best burgers I’ve ever had.
