| - After a good lifting session, not only was I craving a burger, I felt like I deserved a burger. A couple guys suggested Flipp'n Burger. Without question, I headed straight over with my gym gear on. Flipp'n burger is located in the heart of Kensington - it was a Thursday night around 7:30PM and parking could easily be found on the streets. I quickly glanced at the menu board and decided to go with the signature flippin' n burger to go. I sat and waited so I was able to browse the interior a bit. It seemed a little retro looking and small with a few tables at the front and seating near the window. There was also seating outside but it was too cold for that. I noticed there was a lot of glass bottle sodas and a freezer full of popsicles near the counter where you pay.
After a few minutes, I was called to choose my toppings and that's when I noticed that the burger I had ordered came with two beef patties! Haha, I guess that's what happens when you quickly glance and order. Any who, there are the general toppings you can choose from as well as a handful of sauces. I got everything but the jalapenos and olives. My burger came with cheddar & swiss cheese, 'crispy' onions, sautéed mushrooms, beef bacon and flipp'n sauce....Boy, my burger was flipp'n huge!
When I got home, I couldn't wait to dig into my flipp'n burger. When I took it out of the paper bag, it kind of fell apart, which was sad because it wasn't wrapped properly but I did not fear as I knew it was all going to the same place, my belly :) I ate with a fork and knife and I found the bun to be too bready and a waste of calories. The pattie itself was seasoned well and juicy but slightly on the dry side, and my onions weren't crispy (must have been the drive home) but the beef bacon was delicious!! I found the combination of the burger to be pretty good but it wasn't flippin' amazing.
Maybe next time I'll dine in and have my burger fresh!
