| - Felt like going for some burgers today for lunch. And being at work really limits your options. Time and location was kinda key... sad I know. So I decided to drop by Jetsun's Burger around the North York Centre corporate area. Walked in and this is your typical diner type feel. You get some funky colours going on and you can feel the greasiness slowly but surely settling into your clothes. I quickly ordered the Cadillac Combo which was pretty expensive for lunch outta the dt core area. I decided to dress my burger with ketchup, mayo, lettuce, tomato, onions and pickles. The burgers are freshly grilled when ordered so it took a little while for them to be ready.
Got my burger, fries and coke and sat down. I ended up sharing a table with some other corporate folks as seating was a little limited, but no biggie. I ate a couple of fries and they were still covered with oil. For me, I like my fries a little bit more crispy than being just lightly fried. I believe if they were deep fried for just a little bit longer it would have made a major difference. But then again it was the lunch rush hour, so speed was definitely a factor in service today.
I took a bite into my burger and right away, not bad. The patty's seasoned well and it still maintains its juiciness (or grease?). Do note, it was a little greasy and there was a fair amount of oil spots all over the paper wrapping. The burger felt like your typical diner burger. I'm fine with it being greasy and all, heck sometimes my body just craves this. So for the health conscience, be warned.
Overall, I would say Jetsusn's burger is a little bit better than the average, but not by much. For the health conscience, I would say go for W Burger Bar as they serve many more 'healthier' options. Jetsun's is a diner type burger. You wouldn't go to McD's and expect to find gourmet burger with organic patties. Same mindset with Jetsun's but for this price... I'll have to pass. Maybe in the past I wouldn't say this but with Toronto's burger scene getting better and better, go out and try others.
