| - I haven't reviewed Cheeburger Cheeburger yet? Shame, for shame. So here goes.
It's a build yer own burger joint. But hot damn is it awesome. You have the Chassis. Start with a delicious glossy moist bun. The patty, anything from 1/3 of a pound to the full-pounder. On that you can pick from an impressive array of cheeses and like the menu says, you can have it without cheese but why would you? This is followed by a plethora of free toppings and not-so-free topping, but worth every extra penny because you can go freaking nuts on the combination possibilities.
I had the semi serious, which is 1/3 of a pound and opted to slap some bacon and a fried egg, with mayo, ketchup and American Cheese. It was crazy good. The patty was piping hot, well seasoned, moist, fatty and delicious. The toppings were amazing. The bun is simply AMAZING.
I had a side of Onion Rings. The only thing I can say that's wrong about the rings is that the onions were not allowed to dehydrate overnight after being cut, when that's not done, the moisture makes the batter mushy. But they were still awesome. The fries.... poor, poor Americans. They couldn't make good French fries to save their lives. I've eaten all over in the states and only at the Navy Yard's Bistro did I find good fries, otherwise, they are always dry and crunchy. But they weren't bed, just not how I like me some fries.
All sides (fries and rings) come with a choice of 5 dipping sauces. I of course hit the melted cheese sauce... you can dip the last remains of the burger into it as well.
Wait it gets better. Made to order soft drinks served in Masson jars. Cherry Coke in a Masson jar.... just perfect. But wait again, it gets even better. Homemade milkshakes. Tasty, cool, delicious shakes, about 30 different types. I love me a good shake.
Tacky 50's decor which is cool, great service, supremely nice owner, trivial pursuit cards with the condiment tray, 50's music, lotsa pink and what is currently the best burger experience in Montreal. Nothing else comes close to it. So despite some very minor blunders, it's SERIOUS 5 outta 5
