| - After a pretty significant biatus (burger-hiatus), I managed to work in some post-holidays burgasm goodness on New Years Day. Chef Burger has been taunting me for ages (my girlfriend lives right near it, and I always drive by it), and I just couldn't take it anymore.
This place has a real 'mom and pop' vibe to it. There are plenty of tables inside (with abnormally comfortable seats I might add), and a TV/MP3 corner spitting out entertainment. They also offer free Wifi.
They offer standard burgers, quarter pounders, and 2 monsters, the Super and the Chef Burger, and I ordered one of each monster.
The topping selection can't be beat. They'll even throw in quality items like mushrooms for a small fee. I couldn't recgonize one of their condiments, and inquired. The extremely friendly gentleman preparing the burgers (perhaps the owner?) told me it's their own sauce, which was basically mayo with additional herbs and whatnot to give it its own unique flavour. He seemed pretty proud of the stuff, so I had him throw that on the burgers.
These patties were huge! Another thing I really liked about this place (unlike joints like Wimpys), is that they have their own custom buns to accomodate their huge freakshow patties, and don't just let patty hang out the sides of standard buns, like some fat guy in tiny jeans. They'll also toast the buns as well, which is cool.
The prices weren't too bad given the amount of burger you receive. My Chef Burger and Super Burger came to around 15 bucks if I'm not mistaken.
As for the burgers themselves, the buns were fresh, and the burgers were perfectly cooked and tasty. The special sauce wasn't too shabby either. It reminded me a little of the sauce they put on the burgers at Licks, and that's not a bad thing.
Thanks for knocking me off the wagon, Chef Burger. I'll definitely return.
