The Assembly Burger ($21)

I'm partial towards a classic cheeseburger, so gourmet type burgers don't quite appeal to me as much. This was alright, with a large 6.5 ounce patty that was pretty well cooked. I liked the roasted bun, crispy on the edges, soft and fluffy on the inside.

But the thing about gourmet burgers is that the ratio of cheese to bun isn't what I would call optimal. One slice of cheese for such a thick patty doesn't quite make for a flavourful burger. Besides, despite what they claim about how their patty is hand formed using organic angus beef, it just tastes like every other restaurant that has a burger in their overly diverse menu. The fries were ordinary frozen ones too. All that gave rise to a rather formulaic, dull burger that is just decent.
