| - I do believe, the secret to having an exceptional burger at South St. Burger Co., lies in the toppings you select.
This location just recently opened in Pickering and since the received a coupon for a free small poutine, we figured we'd give them a shot.
We ordered two cheeseburgers and a drink and our bill came to just over $16.00. They're a little on the pricey side but, speaking strictly from my burger experience, worth the money.
The selection of toppings can be a little overwhelming and although the girl at the cash was really friendly, the girl preparing my burger had zero personality and little patience for my indecisiveness, leaving me feeling like I was ordering soup in an all too familiar episode of Seinfeld. I promised I would come more prepared next time.
The toppings I selected for my burger were: Dijon Horseradish, Chipotle BBQ Sauce, Red Onions, Pickles and Goat Cheese.
I do have to say, the texture of the goat cheese was incredibly smooth and creamy and the combination of the dijon horseradish and the chipotle bbq sauce was absolutely heavenly!
I was thoroughly enjoying my burger however, my husband was having a 'meh, I've had better' moment and, upon tasting his burger with his selection of toppings, I would have to agree with him. I didn't really find anything outstanding about the beef patty itself... or the bread. It's all about the selection of toppings and the difference between his burger and mine was like night and day.
We selected the veggie poutine which consisted of New York Fries smothered in cheese sauce and sour cream and then topped with diced tomatoes and green onions. This too was heavenly and the cheese was a nice change from the typical gravy.
Overall, I thoroughly enjoyed my meal and would definitely come back again for more of that dijon horseradish!!! Delish!
