Where a burger became a community

Where a burger became a community

There are places where you eat good food. And then there are places where you eat good food and feel something else entirely – a sense of familiarity, care, belonging. Places where the food is the starting point, not the destination. If there’s something more, you feel it. You just do.
There’s a place in Verona that’s famous across Italy for its burgers, but that’s not the whole story. It’s called Buns.

Meet Jack Ballarini

Jack Ballarini is the owner, founder, and the brain behind every single burger on the menu. Sure, you might think – all this fuss over a burger? But making something complex and layered out of something that seems so simple is a lot harder than it looks. Jack pulls it off. He takes bold, multi-layered flavors, studies them for months, and lands on a sandwich where everything is exactly where it should be.

We’d been wanting to go for a while – to see the place and meet the community where the Burger Lover’s Club was born. We finally made it.
Here for the video.
