It's also possible that chefs at those places consider burgers beneath them, and offload their making to some interns, or worse, minimum wage helpers.

No, not all food is bad, with burgers I think it's more of an attitude problem — a lot of people in Russia were introduced to burgers at McDonalds, so they indeed keep perceiving them as fast food. The most absurd thing, when I invited a couple of ex-colleagues to a nice diner to treat them burgers proper and change their mind about the whole fast food thing…

There used to be a whole subculture here around barber shops, craft beer and good burgers — these places kept popping up here and there, burgers and steaks were generally good, but as those were small businesses and the economic situation kept shifting rapidly, there was no way to tell how long they would last. Sometimes you come to a place that was nice just a few months later and it's already something else 😅
