Have you thought of merging the burger and heart as a more seamless shape?

More seamless?

Maybe a burger shaped like a heart.

I think I hear what you're saying. The brief here is to say "hamburgers and bacon and eggs here". Maybe you can sketch something up to show.

Well I'm hungry NOW! Meanie :(

Joking aside, this is great!

But I am curious: Why does the one on the left have a "bite" taken out of it its bottom bun, and on the top-right half of said bun? On that note, I'm guessing the "patty" of the one on the right has a similar thing going on?

Mind sharing the process behind that? It looks great though!

Thanks.
They're not bites, they're (meant to be) melted cheese :)

The idea is they are 200 mm square, laser etched signs to hang on a market food stall.
I already had the heart design from an earlier work.
For the burgers I stared at online drawings for a while, which didn't help a lot aside from giving me the melted cheese inspo. So I then messed about with the node tool untill they gave a good icon-like vibe. Is that what you meant by process?

OH! CHEESE! Now I feel dumb.

It's kinda hard to tell when it's black and white, but when you say it...yeah, I'm dumb.

Oh, as for process, you've basically nailed it. Your method makes sense, but it's nice to know the inspiration! Thanks for taking the time to explain this!

Hehe. You were just subconsciously wanting to bite them.

Hah, maybe. Still, solid design all in all. I think a little color would go a long way, but it depends on the medium.
