| - I've been walking past this place for a little while and finally found the time to pop in. I was really drawn in by their "buy local" and fresh made, ground in store burgers and really interesting and tasty sounding salads. B.Good seemed to be offering fast food that was fresh and locally sourced. I was expecting an owner run shop, but this place is run like a franchise without any ownership present. Which wasn't a problem by any means, it was merely an impression I received from looking at it from the outside, as they have the owners name on the front door. The staff did a decent job, but like any franchise run store, the employees don't seem to care all that much.
All of that aside, the food was ok, I had the COUSIN OLIVER burger which was to have fresh veggies including home made pickles! I also had their fresh fries and a chocolate milkshake which they boasted had the best handmade ice cream ever in it. Well The burger was just ok, the patty was actually smaller than the bun lol, I also found it very crumbly, super dry to the taste and hard to keep together, partly because they used 2 super thick slices of tomato which were very mushy and not fresh at all. Sadly they also forgot the homemade pickles! which was VERY disappointing... as it was a big reason i ordered it. There was nothing I could do as I was home already and definitely was not going back just for pickles lol.
Over all the burger had potential but was assembled quite poorly and again quite dry and overcooked, it was also smaller than the average home made burger by far. The milkshake was also just average, the ice cream was honestly nothing special, or not nearly as special as they advertised, in my opinion for $5.99 it should have blown me away... I've definitely had MUCH better.
What was as advertised though was the fries, they were delicious. in conclusion, my experience at B.Good could have been much better, but it was far from lousy, I will definitely give this place another try and next time I will be more diligent and inspect my order thoroughly before leaving, I will also give one of their pretty tasty looking, but very highly priced salads a try as well.
Finally, Be prepared to shell out more Shekel's or Drachma's for this food, as this place not cheap by any means. I'll update this after my next visit, here's hoping it's a better experience!
