| - Full disclosure: I am not a burger girl. I'm not one of these people who freaks out every time a new burger joint happens. In fact, I couldn't even tell you the last time I had a burger. However, I was somewhat craving one so I decided to accompany my burger-loving boyfriend on a mission to check out our neighbourhood's new burger place--you know, just to see what it was like.
Inside, its diner style reminds me a bit of a roller skating rink as a single disco ball rotates in the middle of the restaurant while subtle colourful lights flash around. I couldn't resist the charm of this place and upon seeing a family enjoying burgers in old fashioned presentation, I decided to give it a shot. I ordered the Mozart burger--a 4oz cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, red onions, pickles and bass sauce, which is kind of like a garlicy, rosemary-esque mayo concoction. I confess, i actually liked it a lot. Picture a Wendy's burger all grown up. Fresh, soft sesame buns surround a homemade freshly-ground patty. We also tried the super greasy onion rings and the fries, which were both alright though cold by the time we got home, yet still wonderful for soothing our hungover bodies. The boyfriend said it wasn't quite as good as the Priest, but would still totally go back. I probably will too.
One thing to note: Not that I'm a big bacon person, but I was kind of weirded out that they specified beef bacon. Maybe it's just me, but nothing about that sounds appealing. Other than that, it's great to have an awesome burger joint in the neighbourhood. I think I might bring my parents here next time they visit. Quick service, ample seating, and burgers are cooked to order.
