| - I guess the thing is that I don't really like burgers? I've said it before and I'll say it again, someone "up there" means for me to be a vegetarian because, when I do eat meat, it has to be so abstracted from it's original form (i.e. McNuggets) to be edible. When I see real, meaty looking meat, I back away. I get all heeby-jeeby and I can't do it.
That said, I ordered a regular ole' cheeseburger, poutine and a chocolate milkshake. As is normally the case when I'm faced with the "how would you like it done?" question, I answered "Umm....like, really, really well done. Like, you could hit something with it afterwards and it wouldn't break." So the burger, though apparently incinerated, was fine by my standards.
The poutine and the chocolate shake, though, were fan-tastic! One of the better poutine's I have had in the city.
Big Smoke Burger is small on the inside, with little room for frills. I guess the problem with lack of frills is that you wonder why you're paying $29 for two burgers when McDonald's would charge like $4 for the two AND you can play in the Play Place for free.
But, as I've said before, if you want quality, you spend. If you want post-bar or heartburn-inducing food, you go to McDonalds.
All in all pretty good.
