The question of whether there’s room still for more burger restaurants keeps being asked. And the answer is… OHHH YES! It will not hurt to have more burger stores I say! But to be on top of the game you need to stand out and be different. And that is exactly how the idea of Kung Fu Burger came about. The brilliant idea behind 3 very ambitious young entrepreneurs was to create a freshly made burger with an unexpected Asian twist. Inspired by the legendary Bruce Lee’s jumpsuit, the interior plays with simple bold mustard yellow and details of black and red to give an Asian touch yet still appeals to the Melbourne funky restaurant scene. Due to the size limitation, we have chosen the most impactful, bright and bold colour to create something unique, fun, memorable and most importantly to have its own identity and street appeal to stand out amongst the crowd. Color can alter our perception of a room’s size and shape and that is exactly what we took advantage of. To create an illusion, we have decided to paint the wall and the ceiling with the same lighter colors which enables your eyes to travel continuously around the space, making the room appear more spacious. With the same color, you don’t see boundaries and space seem to continue.  Big mural art work by Melbourne artist – Xue Ning creates a moment of quirk and fun.
