Last Friday I caught up for lunch with a couple of my workmates at The Burger Bistro. I have often walked past and noticed it being quite popular. I have also noticed the prices and so never bothered to stop before now.
It is an intimate space (ie small) and we did well to get there just before twelve and grab ourselves seats. The burgers came out in a constant stream from the kitchen, and I enviously watched the bowls of chips flow past as we waited for our lunch.
My order was the Lamburghini. It promised so much, and failed to deliver for me. The burger itself was lovely and fresh, but I found the flavours to be very bland. The product description was hand made West Australian premium lamb patty seasoned with fennel & cumin with a shredded beetroot & orange zest tzatziki on a bed of our usual salads. For $16 I would have liked my tzatziki to zing! I consoled myself in the thought that the reason why the lamb had no flavour was because there was very little fat in it.
The burgers that I think the boys had were the chatchi’s chilli chorizo burger and the big smoke.
So... if someone suggested that we eat there, I would give it another shot. The bread used for the buns was great and the salads and all the food was was fresh, something that I do not normally associate with my workday lunch. I might just think a little harder about what I order and try the classic beef burger!
