Happy Fourth of July!!!!
Hmm, for some reason people in the UK aren’t celebrating the day a few hundred years ago when they lost their arses to the Americans. Not sure why…
To celebrate a Happy Independence Day, I went to Gourmet Burger Kitchen to have a burger with my American friend:
This is what I ordered:
1. Cheeseburger
2. Chips(Fries for you Americans)
3. Lemonade
4. Bottled Water
Tab: ~20 GBP or $40 USD for a meal for two. God Save the Queen.
The burger was good, like an American six dollar burger, except twice the cost. I haven’t tried the angus burgers that are at all the pubs here but the word on the street is that they suck arse.
This burger had a pile of fixings on top including lettuce and tomato. The meat was excellent except for the prions. The aged cheddar was a nice touch. It’s much better than that standard American Cheese crap. They have this excellent garlic mayo that was made out of raw garlic, except raw garlic is not good for a workday lunch…who would’ve guessed. The only thing that was weird was the “relish”. What I was expecting was the green pickle stuff we throw on top of good old American hot dogs on a 4th of July. Instead I got this red sweet pastey stuff. Cheers.
All in all, it was a nice American-style burger….I recommend it for those in London who get sick of eating bangers and mash.
