If I wanted to be precise maybe but the word burger is a shortened form of
Burger in a bun which is what the image clearly is.. In day to day usage we
just ask for a burger so I see no reason not to just ask for a Ha'DIbaH
ghIH. If the Terran serving understands that much I'm sure you'd get what
you'd asked for.
