A Michelin star London restaurant has created a burger for Shake Shack
Its skilled head chef and co-founder John Chantarasak has created the special menu item by artfully bringing together an Aberdeen Angus beef burger fried in red curry paste, which is then topped with ox tongue glazed in scallop roe and smoked chilli jam, before some wild garlic and green olive purée is added, alongside som tam infused pickles. Gosh. The whole thing is served on a toasted potato bun brushed with spiced honey butter.
It'll be available on July 11 at the Covent Garden branch of Shake Shack only, from 12pm until they sell out. You'll also be able to order some laab spiced fries; crinkle cut fries seasoned with a laab spice blend, and topped with fermented yellow soybean mayonnaise and wild garlic sweet chilli relish.
AngloThai opened at the end of 2024, and won its first Michelin star within months of launching. The restaurant fuses Thai flavours with British, seasonal ingredients. Time Out gave it a glowing five star review, and praised its 'reimagining [of] some of Thailand's most celebrated dishes via the lens of fastidious fine dining'.
'As a long-time admirer of Shake Shack, I'm thrilled to be creating my very own burger and fries that showcase the bold flavours and ingredients we like to cook with on our menus at AngloThai,' says Chantarasak.
'I'm a big fan of the mustard-fried burger technique seen in America and wanted to take inspiration from this by frying beef fat red curry paste into the burger patty as it sizzles on the plancha, giving a rich and warming flavour to the meat. I'm also grilling slices of beef tongue and glazing them in a Thai-style chilli jam made from roasted chillies and smoked scallop roes, giving the burger deep umami and celebrating a lesser used, but very delicious cut of beef.'
Net proceeds from the sales of the AngloThai burger and fries will go towards north London food charity and agroecological farm, Grow.

British BMX trickster Kriss Kyle ‘puts mum and dad through hell' even before epic never-seen-before stunt with F1 car
Scottish hero reveals he lived illegally at skatepark aged 15 - with only rats for housemates and sweets for food JUMP START British BMX trickster Kriss Kyle 'puts mum and dad through hell' even before epic never-seen-before stunt with F1 car KRISS KYLE admitted he put his parents 'through hell' - even before he decided to risk death by 'playing chicken with an F1 car'. Scottish BMX rider Kyle, 33, took his daredevil exploits to the extreme, even by his lofty standards with his latest stunt. Advertisement 9 Kriss Kyle landed the scariest trick of his career Credit: Red Bull 9 The BMX rider successfully jumped over a Formula One car Credit: Red Bull 9 He had to nail the jump within 0.2 seconds Credit: Red Bull That is because he risked his life by jumping over an actual Formula One car racing towards him on the track at Goodwood. Kyle had the crazy idea two years ago and teamed up with sponsors Red Bull to make 'Can He Hop It?' happen, with the company providing Sebastian Vettel's 2011 title-winning RB7 V12 model motor plus the precision timings, given to the rider by a beep in his ear. After seven months of training, much of it centred around strengthening his legs including looking like a 'nutcase' walking the dog in a weighted vest, the initial date had to be aborted due to strong winds. So a back-up date was set at Goodwood, where - despite still some significant wind - Kyle had a 30-minute window and one take to pull off his monumental feat on the custom-built one-off titanium and carbon fibre bike.

Kyle told SunSport: 'This was probably the scariest one that I have done so far. So many things could go wrong. 'All I need is a bad gust, and I'm not gonna make it, or be too early or too late. 'You could like hurt yourself, or you could die. It's so horrible but the feeling when you land it, that's why I do it, for the sheer feeling of that, it's like no other.

'The car was doing 60km/h so about 40mph. Fast enough to do yourself in. Advertisement 'You have to trust the Red Bull timings are spot on, which obviously they are. You are trusting your life with other people. 'I was prepared to really hurt myself but was really hoping it was gonna be landed. I forgot to call my mum when I landed and she thought I was dead Kriss Kyle 'Parademics were there. There were two ambulances, one for me and one for the driver.' Kyle got into BMX-ing through his older brother and moved out of the family home in Stranraer at 14 without any qualifications, sofa-surfing 100 miles away in Dumbarton as the police tried to take them to court over his non-existent school attendance. Advertisement Then unbeknownst to his parents, he spent a year illegally living in the Unit 23 Skatepark - with rats for housemates and sweets for meals. Kyle explained: 'It was like super, super scary being in there by yourself. 'It was like a horror movie. 'F***, the amount of s*** I'd hear in there. I hated it.

And it has certainly given him - and his loved ones - some hair-raising moments through the years. Kyle, who has escaped relatively unscathed by only breaking his ankle, toes, ribs and thumb, added: 'It's my job to think of these crazy ideas that no one's done before. Advertisement 'I skated in a floating skatepark 2,000ft in the air in a hot-air balloon and jumped out of a helicopter on to the top of the Burj Al Arab hotel in Dubai.

'When I'd done the skate park in the sky, she was crying then as well. I forgot to call her when I landed and she thought I was dead. Advertisement 'I put my wife through hell as well. And I've got a 16-month-old son now as well. 'I'm not making it easy on anyone or myself but they're super proud of me.' 9 9

Solo traveller details surprising aspects of Ibiza nightlife and safety tips for women
A woman from the UK has shared her experience travelling to Ibiza alone and was surprised to find out what it was like to head to the clubs and strip on her own A British woman who embarked on a solo trip to Ibiza has shared her experiences of hitting the mega-clubs and strip alone, revealing one surprising detail. Penny Uro spent four days and three nights at Hotel Vibra Algarb in Playa d'en Bossa, just two miles from Ibiza Town. She decided to travel independently, wanting to "let her hair down" after facing some personal challenges. The 41-year-old single parent took to Instagram to share her insights with her 24,000 followers in a video titled: "Things I learned as a solo traveller to Ibiza". The Daily Star reports she advises single women to pack earplugs, opt for comfortable footwear in nightclubs, make friends with other solo travellers, and explore beachside eateries together. The globe-trotting enthusiast first gave her verdict on the clubs. Penny said: "Go to the Old Town, Ibiza has so much more than bars and clubs. "Ushuaïa Ibiza had the best atmosphere by far. Pacha and Hï Ibiza were packed, think tinned sardines. Drinks were prohibitively expensive - €18 for water, €30 for vodka and Coke." Speaking to What's The Jam later, she revealed the world-class nightlife was the 'sole' reason she chose to visit Ibiza. Despite most people travelling to Ibiza in large groups, Penny didn't want to miss out on letting her hair down and decided to go alone. Although initially attracted to the Spanish island for its nightlife and clubs, she found the beach clubs were where she had the most fun. However, Penny - who practises as a solicitor in the Midlands - confessed she was taken aback by the widespread drug scene on the island. While strolling along the strip, Penny remarked: "Every other person who walked past me was as high as a kite, but no one was intimidating, and everyone was just there having a good time. "Alcohol in clubs is extremely expensive, so I can see why people turn to other things. "While walking from the club to my hotel at 1am, about a 10-minute walk, I was approached eight times by different men trying to sell me drugs, which I found quite surprising." Beyond that, the only other drawback was feeling like a 'sardine' in the 'packed' clubs where Penny felt like she couldn't move much, let alone dance. Her video has garnered more than 26,000 views and countless comments on her 'Penny Goes Travelling' Instagram account. Back in June, Penny journeyed to Egypt and admitted she "couldn't wait to leave" the country. Join the Daily Record WhatsApp community!

Despite having visited Egypt multiple times before, she described the "hassling for money and scamming culture so exhausting" during her latest trip. She was allegedly bothered by Uber drivers, tour guides, street vendors, and airport staff - even whilst travelling with four men and a child. The globe-trotter described her hotel experience as "shocking", citing relentless harassment for tips and catcalling. She further commented: "Even though I was travelling with four men, it seems that doesn't put the locals off. I used to get hassled a lot, but I was never put in a place of fear. "But this time, I experienced physical force, aggression, and people actively following me into private areas like the ladies' toilets. "If you don't mind being ogled at, cat called, constantly asked for money in return for nothing, and if you enjoy your personal space being invaded, then Egypt is perfect. "Otherwise, get back on the plane."

This Surprising Brand Is Full Of Could-Be Designer Dresses - And I Can't Stop Wearing Them
Confession: I recently pledged to dress appropriately for the great British summer, and it's been a revelation. Having spent most of my summers in the Mediterranean and the tropics, my idea of warm-weather dressing has never quite aligned with the UK's… let's say interpretation of summer. Earlier this year, I found myself obsessed, compulsively refreshing Monsoon's new-in section and making 'accidental' detours past the gorgeous Princess Street store in Edinburgh. The colourful prints, the rich colourways - they lure me in every time. Plus, I found that Monsoon dresses were versatile enough to become my go-to for whatever the British weather throws our way during summer. Mission complete. ©@annelorasscagliusi ©©@annelorasscagliusi It all started with the pink Patricia ruffle-sleeve midi dress I wore on Mother's Day. Honestly, I felt like a princess for the day. The dress caught plenty of stares, and the good kind. Those ruffles? Bold but totally wearable, with a flow that felt like it was made just for me. It's hands down the best dress in my wardrobe right now, and I've shamelessly worn it on repeat for my anniversary and any day I want to feel a little extra. Since then, Monsoon has had me hooked, a seamless mix of daily go-tos, workwear wins, and occasion-ready pieces that I keep coming back to. The prints always feel like a holiday, and the shapes somehow flatter perfectly. Whenever I'm stuck on what to wear, these dresses save the day — always on point, just like my favourite Self-Portrait pieces. They're the kind of dresses that never fail to make me look and feel flawless. ©@annelorasscagliusi ©©@annelorasscagliusi If you're not familiar with the brand, Monsoon's designs are effortlessly elegant yet approachable. Think floaty silhouettes, intricate embroidery, and rich textures that nod to bohemian romance without feeling overdone. Moving seamlessly from easy day dresses to occasion-ready styles, some pieces could easily be mistaken for designer without the eye-watering price tag. And I'd say most of the pieces I have fit true to size, so I always recommend sticking with your usual. As a petite woman, I find its dresses tend to run a bit longer than I'd like, but that hasn't bothered me. So, without further ado, and after plenty of scrolling, here are the Monsoon dresses truly worth your attention. Consider this your go-to list of pieces you'll want to wear on repeat. 1. Patricia Ruffle-Sleeve Midi Dress If I had to choose just one Monsoon dress to wear forever, it would be this. My beloved pink version is sadly sold out (for now), but thanks to its cult following, it's back in stock in a rich red and classic navy. Honestly? If I were you, I'd get both - it's the kind of dress you'll want in every colour. The exaggerated ruffle sleeves are dramatic yet totally wearable, the skirt has the dreamiest swish, and it's guaranteed to make you feel special. I reach for it on anniversaries, family occasions, or any day I want to feel extra feminine. For daytime, I pair it with mesh ballet flats; for evening, strappy heels do the trick. 2. Mae Devore Midi Dress Bow, puff sleeves, and polka dots, the timeless trio that never loses its charm. This sheer, velvet-spotted midi is finished with a collared neckline, short puff sleeves, and a statement bow at the front, making it equal parts feminine and polished. It's the kind of piece you can wear to work, a meeting, or a smart dinner without having to overthink your outfit. Just add heels, and you're set for morning-to-evening dressing. 3. Agatha Tie Front Check Midi Dress New in and already a pre-fall favourite, this dress will quietly dominate wardrobes once the leaves turn crimson. In rich burgundy check, with charming tie-front bows along the bodice, it's perfect for those "just in case" plans. Dress it down for coffee or style it up for dinner — it's a versatile winner you'll reach for on repeat. 4. Tasmin Button Denim Midi Dress If denim isn't usually your thing (it's not mine either), but you'd still like to weave a little into your wardrobe, this dress could be the one. What won me over is its perfect balance, casual thanks to the denim, yet polished with its structured shape. If you're only buying one denim dress this year, make it this one. A classic collared, button-through design with long sleeves and a swishy midi hem, it's timeless and endlessly versatile. I've worn mine to a weekend picnic, for a leisurely city stroll, and even on a quick coffee run. Pair it with boots in autumn, trainers come spring, or sandals when the sun's out. It's the definition of an effortless wardrobe workhorse. 5. Briana Tie Floral Appliqué Midi Dress Black in summer? Always. I wore this on my birthday with my Strathberry Osette Raffia bag, and it was the perfect celebration dress. The XL tie straps (totally on-trend), super flattering form-fitting bodice, and sheer A-line skirt scattered with bold embroidered florals make it effortlessly dramatic. It's the kind of dress that turns heads without trying too hard, and it's the kind of dress that makes you feel confident about your body, even if you're showing some skin. 6. Sicily Fit and Flare Midi Dress Polka dots aren't just for New Year's Eve; this print has ruled every IT-girl's feed all summer, and it's here to stay. For dressier occasions, the Sicily fit and flare midi (available in multiple prints and colourways) secures its place as a forever dress. It was the most popular dress on the internet last year, and with its fitted sleeveless bodice and swishy fit-and-flare skirt, it's easy to see why. Universally flattering, endlessly wearable and yes, it has pockets. 7. Suki Long Sleeve Ruffle Maxi Dress Another ruffle moment? Absolutely. This one is pure magic, think peak Sienna Miller in her 2000s boho-chic glory. Made for autumn days when you want to turn heads, it features romantic blouson sleeves, a smocked waistline, and cascading ruffles that flow as you move. Wear it desk-to-dinner with heeled boots and nothing else. 8. Nancy Appliqué Puff-Sleeve Midi Dress For butter-yellow lovers, this is your dream dress. This one's earned its fair share of 5-star reviews and for good reason. The fit is beautiful, the shade of yellow is spot-on for the season, and it pulls you in at all the right places. Simply put, it's a dress worth buying. Made from a cotton-linen blend in a dreamy yellow shade, it features voluminous puff sleeves, delicate appliqué swirls, and vintage-inspired buttons down the front. It feels like sunshine and nostalgia rolled into one, the ultimate pick for brunch, cruise holiday, garden parties, or any sunny occasion where you want to channel British summer vibes to the fullest.
