They do look good, but can you be more specific about where it is? Is it in the same building where S&P now is?
Hangtime burgers contain 20% fat according to their FB post.

400bht for a burger at Hangtime when I can get for 100bht a 300gram tenderloin steak ( carefully chosen by myself and excellent quality) from Makro - it is a no brainer.

It's amusing, in a sad way, when someone makes such an irrelevant interjection in the real world. They usually seem oblivious that everyone else in the conversation - for a moment - stopped talking, looked at him with a slightly quizzical expression, then turned back to the resumed conversation, ignoring him from them on. If you thought about him at all, you'd wonder if he intended the comment to get that reaction, or if he thought he was keeping up.

I have little time for these ridiculous, towering piles of nonsense that are so ostentatious they can’t be eaten without a knife and fork. A burger is a quick bite, not some gourmet contraption designed to do nothing more than empty your wallet. Take the Cornish pasty, the sandwich, the pizza, samosa, roti, etc. etc. Simple food designed to be eaten on the go and on a modest worker’s salary.

For my money, you can’t beat Binta Burger for taste, value for money and the attention to detail that goes into making each and every one.

Yeah, it could turn out to be road-kill but it still takes some beating.

And Hangtime cook their burgers in a frying pan, who the hell does that. It should be cooked on a BBQ/or griddle.

Don't think I'd pay a tenner for a burger anywhere in hua hin unless it was made of Angus and came with blue cheese!

I would not agree with you. I don't eat meat often but when I do I want something good. A good burger is more than a quick bite. I don't mean it should be huge, some places seem to think that if they make the burger 100mm high it is good, in my opinion it is not.
I started this thread looking for suggestions on good and special burgers, everyone has their own opinion but so far no really good burgers have been suggested, in my opinion.

One thing you can guarantee when talking about food, is that you are certain to get opposite views on what constitutes good and bad and as we’ve seen above, some like it tasty but cheap whereas others are willing to pay handsomely for a premium product - you pays your money and make your choice!!

The hangtime looks pretty good to me, why not try it and then tell us what you think? And if I get there first, I will do the same.

I don't think there is any rule about how burgers have to be cooked?

Anyway, the whole place gets really good reviews on trip advisor:

And you can make your own mind up from this video. It does look a fatty offering, but no harm if an occasional treat. Looks great to me!

because I don't want a burger cooked in a frying pan with really fatty bacon and a sauce poured on top. The potatoes look good and have some nice herbs in it, a good change from fries. If you watch the video it is a basic homemade burger, nothing special.

There is no range. It's a simple burger, with cheese although I don't take cheese with mine. Big enough to fill me up and comes with some good crispy fries. The meat is well cooked and very juicy. Standard lettuce, tomato etc. What I like about them is the meat is good quality, probably 1/3 lb, not over/under cooked and very flavorful.
