"It's about an hour and a half to find an idea, run to a supermarket to get everything, cook, shoot and eat. We didn't actually planned to create a website. Only after a few try, we started taking pictures in our kitchen with an iPhone and decided to put it on the internet..."
The creators use the finest ingredients to create the burgers, spending up to $70 on each one.
