So here we are.
I have a professed love for burger that has burgeoned into a near weird obsession and I thank my friends for bearing with my interest and passion for these cute little potato bunn-ed/brioche bun things for the last couple of years.
Here are nyc burgers that a vast majority of New Yorkers or I have strongly liked for your perusal and fancies.
Curious as to know which burgers are my favorites in the city? (HINT: I love those verging on the salty, savory, packed styles, and I most certainly love a thick, tall patty, YUM!)
On a scale of the basic to the experimental:
My Homily to Burgers
Savory Experimental;
Comments: Patty is on the sweeter side
Comments: Very good, it’s worth venturing into another borough
Savory:
Bar Sardine
Comments: Vertical burgers
Comments: Burger is on the salty side because of that delicious cheese. You’ll either love it or hate it.
Barneys New York – Chelsea Downtown
Comments: Not fond of the fries, “pomme frites,” that come with it, but the burger is delicious.
Comments: Sadly closed. (RIP)
Savory Traditional:
Bar Luxembourg
The Jane Restaurant
Comments: Solid, greasy shoestring fries
L’Aile ou la Cuisse
Ruby’s
Comments: Eh.
Minimalist Traditional:
Nectar Cafe
Comments: Very good, but I think the patty is very fatty or something. I get sleepy quickly whenever I go here to have their burger.
Mel’s Burger Bar
Park Avenue Tavern
Minimalist:
J.G. Melon: Not really a fan, (gasp) sorry.
P. J. Clarkes: Not really a fan, (gasp) sorry.
Wilfie & Nell: Not really a fan, sorry.
Comments: From the times I went to get burgers here (more than a few times), all of them had a weird aftertaste smell. Maybe it was just me, or the times I went. Either way, a good burger joint’s burgers should be consistent, non?
Eli’s Market:
Comments: Eh. It is clean. Not bad.
Note 1: I know I’m forgetting a lot, but there were just too many burgers!
Note 2: Maybe you’re all right. Maybe I’m eating too many burgers. 😀
Note 3: I’ve purposely omitted Shake Shack, and In-N-Out. Those aren’t the point of this.
Note 4: If you have suggestions for burgers in the city, please, please send them my way.
Bon exploring good burgers :).
