The Man Who Started Melbourne’s Burger Boom, Dani from Royal Stacks Tells All!
Description
This week on The Food Guys, we sit down with Dani Zeini the mastermind behind Royal Stacks and one of the pioneers of Melbourne’s modern burger movement.
Dani takes us all the way back to his early days in hospitality, the moments that pushed him to open his own venues, and how spots like Dandenong Pavilion and Grand Trailer Park shaped a new era of burgers in Australia.
We dive into the creation of Royal Stacks, the inspiration behind the brand, the original menu, scaling in a very competitive market, and how Melbourne’s burger scene has changed (and why it might be having a resurgence).
Dani opens up about consumer expectations, pricing debates, social media’s impact, and what he’s learned building one of the country’s most recognisable burger brands.
We also chat what’s next for him, including his work with Sooshi Mango and wrap up with a blind ranking of Lebanese dishes and a spicy quick-fire round.
This episode is loaded, and we couldn't do it without our guest and sponsor of The Food Guys, Royal Stacks!
