Burger Bloggers Open Burger Stand In Chinatown

Chinatown has a new burger shop opened by burger bloggers, featuring meat and vegan options for under $7.
Burgerlords, which first existed as a popular burger-centric Tumblr, has soft opened in Chinatown, Eater LA reports. Owners Fred and Max Guerrero are the sons of The Oinkster's Andre Guerrero, and both worked there for several years. They've partnered with Kevin Hockin (Boxed Water) for this new venture. And they previously held pop-ups before this opening.
For their soft opening, they have a small, simple menu to start. You can get a single ($5) or double burger ($7) topped with thousand island, lettuce, tomato and onion, with cheese for $0.50. They also have a vegan option for $6, made with grains and veggies and topped lettuce, tomato, onion and vegan thousand island. Snag a side of shoestring fries for $2, or make it a combo with fries and a drink for $3.
Burgerlords is located at 943 N. Broadway #102 in Chinatown. They're currently open Tuesday through Sunday, from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m., with plans to expand hours soon.
