Fortunately, Australia has one - Grill'd. Their burgers are excellent, and feature the sorts of ingredients that the competition doesn't - read that as the ingredients that are expensive like herbs and spices, or the ones that go off quickly or need to ripen, like real avocado.
All up, I rate their burgers very well, and damn well hope they'll come to New Zealand and show Burgerfuel up. Burgerfuel was once good, and also had ingredients like Camenbert and Pear, but removed all of these to save on cost. That was one of the their first mistakes.
The second of Burgerfuel's mistakes is to not make the owner work in the business. Without this, you can hire some third rate staff, and wouldn't you know, end up with third rate burgers. That is something that won't happen at Grill'd, or at least not with their current franchise agreements.
The only downside I've found so far with Grill'd is that their chips are cooked in oil so hot that it takes ages for them to cool to an edible temperature. On the other hand, they're drained properly.
Overall, 8/10. The last time I went to Burgerfuel, I might have given them a 4 at best.
