AMAZING
1st SURF & TURF BURGER
Choptank Riverboat Co, Hurlock
Jackpot! Mr Carastian played it well- a wonderful angus beef patty, topped with the house crab dip and generous lumps of jumbo lump crab meat. Toss some cheddar on it and you have bliss on a plate.
REALLY GOOD
2nd VATO LOCO BURGER
Burger House 2 - Max-Weber-Platz, München
Trying to sample from their 'fancy burger' menu, we opted for the Mexican version with guacamole, peppers and bacon. Sadly it did not measure up to the regular burger - a clear case of less is more. However, the guac had a nice zing to it and if you are not such a burger purist, this would make a nice change of pace.
3rd THE DAISY DUKE
Atomic Burger, Oxford
Love their "swap' policy where you can pretty much build your own burger or use an existing template and change it at will. Take for instance this beauty. Original has "american cheese", bacon and bbq sauce - which was changed to cheddar cheese, bacon and garlic mayo (on the side thankfully, cuz that was some POTENT stuff!). Burger was good, but not excellent.
4th THE CHUCK NORRIS
Atomic Burger, Oxford
The catch phrase is correct - a good burger is not rocket science. Love that they make their own buns on site, and the yummy combo of beef patty with pulled pork - but found the bun not very exciting. The place has a great menu of very fun burger combos... would be a good hobby to work down the list if one lived near there!
NOT FOR ME
5th BLACK & BLUE BURGER
Fish Market Restaurant, Alexandria
Yes - mr Carastian was that crazy! Having meat in a place called "Fish market"? Yup that is the kind of wild rebel behavior we expect! The burger was grilled to order (medium well) and the blue cheese was there - yet the pattie was a bit too dense and the cheese to plain to be exciting
6th BAYERN BURGER
Rosenheim Sommerfestival, Rosenheim
Remember seeing Pink Floyd? Remember the division bell tour? You do? You don't and ask yourself why in god's name was your musical taste not up to par back then? Well we have seen the real deal live and thought- why not recreate that with a UK cover band as the lazy old farts don't tour anymore. To go with it a burger of the horrid kind - bad pattie with coleslaw, crispy onions and BBQ sauce??! Oh well shine on you crazy diamond lets have a beer.
