This was what Derrick, the person with the biggest appetite in our group at last Thursday’s dinner, made a beeline for - the Basic Burger (B.B.) with double patties.
A genuine jaw-dropper (and jaw-unhinger), it comprises of two 170gm patties that blends grass-fed Angus beef neck, Aomori Gyu ribeye, Toriyama Umami Wagyu A4 tenderloin and Sendai Wagyu A5 brisket together, as well as slices of American cheese, housemade bone marrow “butter”, locally farmed lettuce, organic tomatoes and a special sauce between perfectly-chosen soft buns spread with unsalted butter. Derrick also added caramelised onions and pickles because he loves his burgers with extra relish.
I had the single patty version of the B.B. and was very satisfied with it. But come a time when I am feeling ravenous, I know what I’ll be ordering.
