For this week, I kept it very local and went to an establishment that was right across the street from my work. Going into it, I honestly didn't know what to expect because I had seen very good reviews on Facebook, but no one I personally knew had been to it so it was a bit of an enigma, and let me tell you, Facebook hit right on the money.
The burger itself SOUNDS a lot bigger than it is. Don't get me wrong, it's no small burger, but just from the list of ingredients it sounds like it was going to be big, instead it was just tall. When looking at what all is on this burger, it's already got to get points for creativity. There's like a whole party of ingredients going on here
The first thing I noticed was the patty. Not only do they melt their cheeses on to the patty, but it seemed to have mashed their diced jalapenos into the meat, which was GREAT. the jalapenos being mashed into the meat gave every bite a little kick, and then with the cheese melted on it was a great flavor. I had just a couple bites of the patty/cheese/jalapeno tag team by itself and it was good to eat just like that. The meat itself was pretty juicy, but I honestly couldn't tell if there was any seasoning due to all the other things glued to the burger and honestly, I was fine with it.
The bacon that was on the burger was just crispy enough to my liking and still retained a lof of flavor, also helps that they give you a good amount, I hate places that skimp on their bacon.
The Avocado was ripe and added a little bit of coolness to the burger, but near the end was just getting mushy everywhere, but for the first 3/4 of the burger, it was great.
The Spring Greens I feel were a little much on the burger, when the burger has so much already on it providing to the flavor, the greens don't really do much. A single slice of lettuce would have been adequate to do the job that the greens did. When it comes to the tomatoes, onions, and pickles you could tell that they were there but they didn't really contribute to the overall taste of the burger except giving it those natural tastes that you get from those particular veggies so while I could have lived without them, it was no biggie having them on there as well.
Overall, this burger has satisfied my tastes in so many ways, and was an awesome addition to this blog.
