Dinner at a burger joint

Due to a total lack of planning on our part, we had nothing to eat for dinner on Monday after work. So we decided to go check out a new burger place that opened recently in Kirribilli.

It's a small little place but we got a seat at the bar.


It's vey much an American-type burger place: all the typography and decor are throwbacks to old American diners. Not only that, but we both noticed the menu items were in American English: French fries weren't "chips," and floats weren't "spiders". And yeah, I think it's totally creepy that floats are called spiders here!


And in keeping with the American theme, our food was super unhealthy. But I had something I hadn't have in over a year: corn on the cob! And I also ordered the mac & cheese side, which was the first non-homemade mac & cheese I've had here. They were both pretty tasty!


Toby went for a veggie burger and fries. Despite the trouble with eating such a tall burger, he was happy with his food choice too.


Of course, nothing closes out a super unhealthy meal like a milkshake.


We'll have to eat salad for the rest of the week's dinners, but it was a fun taste of home!

    1. It was super cute! And I thought they did a good job recreating a 50's American burger place. =)

      We'll put it on the list for when you're here!
