In the year that mainstream Girl Power turns 30, Spice-Mania hits the Royal Mail and a reunion confirmation merely another Mel B slip-up away, 2024 is shaping up to be a year of spicy milestones (including, be honest, Victoria’s 50th). We may need a moment to cry into our millennial mugs before whipping out the leopard print and platform boots again, but even Gen Z can admit it’s still a Spiceworld and we’re just living in it! Which of course hasn’t gone unnoticed by trend-setting burger brand Fat Hippo, as they dedicate their limited edition Valentine’s special to the best-selling girl group of all time.
The burger giants, whom eagle-eyed viewers may have spotted recently in Netflix’s new viral show ‘Fool Me Once’, are gearing up for the spiciest moment since Geri’s hands caressed King Charles’ behind. Watch them swing it, shake it, move it and make it as they show just how good they are with a triple threat of Valentine’s specials that you’re going to wannabe all over this February!
People of the world! You are invited to Spice Up Your Life (or not?) as Fat Hippo are offering a spicy twist which sees guests presented with a choice of a ‘hot’ or ‘not’ spice packet to customise the heat of their meal to their liking. The aptly named burger boasts their signature crispy fried chicken drenched in char siu-caramel, loaded with sriracha mayo, pickles, white onion, hot honey and liquid cheese, served in a sesame seeded brioche, alongside their limited edition Hot Honey Cheese Fries, topped with hot honey, liquid cheese and sesame seeds.
Fat Hippo Operations Director, Michael Johnson said: “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 know 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”
And just like the best of 90’s bands, sometimes a split is on the cards. Stop right now, and check out the last in the Valentine’s trilogy, Split It, consisting of a brûléed banana split, chocolate fudge and vanilla ice creams loaded with whipped cream, Biscoff, Oreo crumb, fudge sauce, sprinkles and cherries on top. Perfect for sharing with your spoon partner this Valentine’s!
Say you’ll be there this February as the Spice Up Your Life burger, Hot Honey Cheese Fries and Split It dessert will be available from 6th ‘til 29th, exclusively at all 17 Fat Hippo locations across the UK. Takeaway is too easy - as they will also be available on Just Eat, UberEats and Deliveroo and on their in-house Click + Collect service.
