Simple
I was showing this burger to a friend who likes simple burgers so decided to give it a second try myself.
(BTW I’m sorry for the bad pic)

How tasty is the Motherf*#$&r? – 7/10
I was passing by and decided to try the absolute classic from Bleeker’s Burgers… a cheeseburger. Especially considering I didn’t like the blue cheese from the previous burger I tried I was hoping I can find the better recipe. And I was right!
The size: Small
The burger had:
- Beef Patty
- Lettuce
- Onions
- Mayo
- Chedar
- White Bun
With a simple burger like this one we need to start with the patty as I believe it would be its centrepiece. Between my two visits nothing has really changed (consistency is good) and as per the last review, I can’t really complain too much about the meat. Yes, I’ve certainly had higher quality meats in a burger, better spiced ones, but non-the less this was a really good beef. Certainly, beats all the fast food burgers you can find everywhere. But just as last time, when you are giving me something with a simple recipe I expect top quality products and that wasn’t exactly the taste.
Lettuce was crunchy, and onions added the acidity the burger needed, it really felt like a classic burger. I expressed my preference for caramelised onions to fresh ones, but I guess it really depends on the taste buds.
Let’s face it I had basically the same burger in Bleecker’s but with cheddar instead of blue cheese. I have to see that cheddar is certainly the right way to order a burger from this joint. It is potent enough and because the burger is so simple you can properly feel the cheddar.
Burger joint venue and overall experience? – 6/10
The service is quick. The fires are really good and you have a good variety for a place like this. They have nice small selection of drinks I believe fits their menu quite well. Especially the Stone IPA I recommend it. Fries could be ordered as a mix of skin on, sweet and basic and they were really nice but were the more filling part of the burger/fries combo.
Quirkiness level of the experience? – 6//10
Basic quality junk food burger.
