Hard Rock’s World Burger Tour is back, and ready to take guests on an international adventure. World Burger Tour, a limited-time offering of Hard Rock Local Legendary Burgers, inspired by the taste and flavors from cafe locations around the world, hits tables at select participating Hard Rock Cafe locations around the world beginning May 1 and continues through June 25.

“To celebrate the third year of World Burger Tour, we thought it was important to share Hard Rock’s heritage with guests, and what better way to do that than through our Local Legendary Burger collection,” says Darryl Mickler, senior director of research and development for Hard Rock International. “For a limited time, guests from around the world will now be able to taste the unique flavors from cities like Cartagena, Colombia or Seoul, South Korea, without ever leaving their hometown Hard Rock.”

The 2017 World Burger Tour lineup features the Seminole Cattlemen Burger, which pays homage to Hard Rock International’s parent company, The Seminole Tribe of Florida. The specialty burger, available in select Florida locations, uses traditional Seminole ingredients including zippy swamp cabbage, also known as hearts of palm and tupelo-breaded gator tail.
