| - So my pal and I ventured to P&L Burger this afternoon. We waited in a fairly long line along the wall (which you can draw on with washable markers) for about ten minutes. The lineup was mostly comprised of hipster-y young men with a smattering of business-minded folks. As in the case of its predecessor, White Squirrel Snack Shop, there was minimal seating, and would not be ideal for the claustrophobic customer.
We both ordered the Castor Burger and brought it home, close-by. My friend's fry-cup wasn't even close to filling up to the brim, which was disappointing. The fries, however, were decent. Onto the burgers - they were fantastic. Charred on the outside, juicy and drippy on the inside. Topped with peameal bacon, cheddar cheese, mayo and BBQ sauce, the burger is hefty but not vomit-inducingly so. Bun is substantial and sturdy enough to support the wonderful cast of players, and upon further research is made by local Silverstein Bakery - my personal favourite.
On a strip of Queen Street saturated with burger joints and in close proximity to "burger corner", P&L is a standout. Looking forward to trying out the rest of the menu.
