Delicious! A bite into Bean-a-licious and…utter I did…delicious! What exactly is Bean-a-licious? It is a rare breed of handcrafted- burger created with love and flavoured with the freshness of best ingredients! It is a wholesome meal which comes packaged in a smart cardboard box. One bite into the burger bun and I realised that I was not eating something that was layered with preservative and synthetic flavours.  Bean-a-licious uses handcrafted buns with assorted bean patty with Monterey Jack cheese, black Garlic mayo, tartar sauce and rocket leaves. The smart box had Pronto printed on it. The Bean-a-licious burger came from this cloud kitchen.
