DUBAI: The US west coast’s favorite burger shack In-N-Out Burger opened a pop-up in Dubai as customers rushed to get a taste of its famous Animal Style cheeseburger.

The fast-food outlet appeared in the city’s Ibn Battuta Mall parking area and with only 300 burgers in stock, 75 of them sold within 45 minutes.

“No plans to open in the region in the immediate future, but never say never,” Luis Hernandez, manager of special foreign events, told Arab News.

All the ingredients were brought over from the US, including four staff members, Hernandez said.

 

It was the second time the burger shack had opened a pop-up in Dubai, with the first coming in 2017.

A double cheeseburger cost 14 dirhams ($3.80), while chips were 4 dirhams.

Apart from food, In-N-Out Burger also had merchandise for sale, including T-shirts, hats, and bumper stickers.

The burger chain is only found on the US’ west coast, namely California, Arizona, Utah, Nevada, and Texas.
