Burger Foundry has been Founded by Me

Bonsoir readers! Sorry for not posting again on Sunday (like I said I was going to, but cooking got the better of me and I ran out of time - I will post up the recipe another time for that).

Anyways, new joint I have to talk about. It's called Burger Foundry on Magill Road (below the post). Went there on a cold Saturday night, and though it is only a small joint, it was certainly busy! What can I say? It was definitely worth waiting for. The shop was quite easy to miss, but if you are heading away from the city up Magill Road, it is on the left - park on the side of the road or any side streets are fine.
The menu was written on the wall (I love the simple decor and how the menu is written with chalk on the blackboard), and there were numerous choices. It was a hard decision with either choosing beef, chicken or vegetarian option initially. Twas' a great pity that they ran out of the hand cut chips, but nevertheless, definitely a next time I say. It was around a 20 minute wait, but I didn't mind as the smell was fantastic. I also really liked how the chef was cutting up the vegetables and dressing up the burger literally in front of the joint (shows the freshness of the ingredients which is what makes a tasty and delicious burger).

I ended up ordering the "Rocky Mountain High":
Rocky mountain high - amazing beef burger

Visual presentation of the freshness of the ingredients

From bottom to top: tomato slices, crisp bacon, melted cheddar cheese, caramelized onions, char-grilled beef, mesclun greens all handcrafted in an amazing fresh toasted bun
The burger was huge — extremely satisfying. From the first bite, the cheese and beef just oozes onto the tastebuds leaving you hungering for more. The burger was pretty much perfect, with just the right amount of saltiness from the bacon and the greens to balance them out, and that beef was beautifully chargrilled - not dry at all! Highly recommend the Burger Foundry, especially if it hasn't founded you already ;)

Bon app étit ~~
