| - I am tough on burger joints. My allegiance lies elsewhere...... but I seriously gave Zinburger a 150% shot.
First of all, who wants to dine on a huge burger while staring a huge mural of a cow in the face? Not me! Makes me feel bad. Probably a big reason I am a fan of Chic'fil'A, eating chicken while staring at a cow, awesome! Anyway..... the decor is cool enough, other than the giant cow watching you eat his cousin.
On to the food. $10-13 for a burger seems to be a standard these days for the upscale burger joints. So, it didn't really bother me. If it came with a side it would have been perfect. So the roommie and I want to get a good taste of everything so we shared a few options; the turkey burger, a glorified bacon/cheddar burger, double truffle fires, zucchini fries and a mint chocolate shake.
1.) Turkey burger - probably the best I have ever had. Perfectly cooked, great flavor and seasoning and the toppings were great. Cabbage rather than lettuce is a genus idea!
2.) Bacon/cheddar burger - meh.... could have gone without ever having this thing in my life. First of all we asked for it to be cooked medium and when it showed up the bun was a bloody mess, I would call that rare. The bacon and thousand island dressing battled to the death and neither won. Way too over powering for such a dominating burger. Over all, wouldn't order it again, ever!
3.) Truffle fires - how do you f*** up truffle fries? It's damn near impossible. They were great. I could tell they were freshly cut and were served with an awesome aoli. Get 'em!
4.) Zucchini fries - blech! Almost sent them back just to get them out of my face. Looked awesome and tasted worse than original Cheerios. The batter they are in sucks, is soaked up all the oil from the fryer, and were as soft as noodles. I tried to make myself eat 3 of them but couldn't take it anymore.
and finally...
5.) Mint chocolate shake - it was okay, in the most generous way. Way too much milk was added so within 5 minutes is had morphed into this sloppy-slushy-watered down concoction that bored me. Flavor alone, great! But the texture, disappointing. I will stick with the Diner, where they know how to do it right.
I have to say the staff was great. Very friendly and were there to take care of any need we had. But for the food itself, I will only ever be back for my once every other month turkey burger craving.
