Amid Spice-Mania hitting the Royal Mail and the looming possibility of a Spice Girls reunion, burger enthusiasts across the UK are in for a treat this February as Fat Hippo, the trend-setting burger brand, pays homage to the iconic girl group with a sizzling Valentine’s special.
As the mainstream Girl Power movement celebrates its 30th anniversary, Fat Hippo is set to spice up 2024 with a limited edition Spice Up Your Life burger, a tantalizing creation dedicated to the best-selling girl group of all time. Just when you thought you had a moment to mourn the passage of time, Fat Hippo invites you to don your leopard print and platform boots and join in the celebration of all things spicy.
Eagle-eyed viewers may have recently spotted Fat Hippo in Netflix’s viral show ‘Fool Me Once,’ but the real show-stopper is their triple threat of Valentine’s specials that promises to make hearts race faster than Geri’s hands caressing King Charles’ behind.
The star of the show is the Spice Up Your Life burger, featuring Fat Hippo’s signature crispy fried chicken bathed in char siu-caramel. Choose your adventure with a ‘hot’ or ‘not’ spice packet to customize the heat of your meal. Loaded with sriracha mayo, pickles, white onion, hot honey, and liquid cheese, all sandwiched between a sesame-seeded brioche, this burger is a symphony of flavours that will make you wannabe back for more.
Fat Hippo Operations Director, Michael Johnson, reveals the inspiration behind the creation: “If there was one request we get often when we ask guests to tell us what they want, it’s something spicy! But our BurgerLab knows spice preference is a spectrum. Our aim is to always make our food as accessible as possible, so we knew we wanted to try something that could appeal to everyone.”
But the spicy journey doesn’t end there. For those who love to share, Fat Hippo presents the Split It dessert, a delightful brûléed banana split with chocolate fudge and vanilla ice creams. Loaded with whipped cream, Biscoff, Oreo crumb, fudge sauce, sprinkles, and cherries on top, it’s a sweet treat perfect for spoon partners looking to indulge in a shared Valentine’s experience.
Say you’ll be there this February, as the Spice Up Your Life burger, Hot Honey Cheese Fries, and Split It dessert take centre stage. Available from the 6th to the 29th, exclusively at all 17 Fat Hippo locations across the UK, these delectable creations are also just a click away on Just Eat, UberEats, Deliveroo, and Fat Hippo’s in-house Click + Collect service. Whether dining in or taking away, Fat Hippo is ready to add a spicy twist to your Valentine’s celebrations. So, grab your spice packet and get ready to spice up your love life at Fat Hippo!
