FLIP Burger

After I paid the bill... I Flipped my wallet upside down and all that was left were some dusty old lint.

This ain't cheap like Kystal's but if you order a sack full, be prepared to assume the position because it's like getting kicked in the nads. Hero worship is not a new thing to Blais and he knows how to work it. These 3.5 oz. burgaz are not really worth upwards of $10 for the semi dry Wimpy meatball stuffed between a pair of hard buns that glitzens like the ones found on an elliptical at your local gym. But hey, I'll gladly pay you tuesday for a hamburga today...

This joint is all about to see and be seen. The grub is just conversation. The decor itself is "cute" with a tad of trendiness on the side. The long bar is well thought out... Extra sitting/standing space to pile in the herds of sheep itching for a glance of the consulting chef and his ginormous tank of liquid sex on ice.

Sampling of...

Lamb Burga- The best of the bunch. The lamb was moist but it was so hard to bite through that bun which was made from Earth's upper crust.
Bun Mi Burga- For the price of this burga, you coulda got 5 wicked tasty banh mi's at Quoc Huong. Eh.
Pork Belly Burga- That Kraft single serving slice of cheese draped over that pinky size pork belly like Houdini and made it disappear! Even the server (greener than a side salad) didn't know which burga it was.
Sweet Tater Tots- Seems like it's inconsistent with these little guys. Sometimes gweezy and sometimes perfect. The bleu cheez foam was not too shabby... He needs to come up one for my bubble baths.
Nutella Shake- The burnt marshmallows is a nice gimmick but try sucking that burnt crud up that straw. For $7, is it too much to ask to include a spoon with the shakes?


Fwies- Nice and crispy. Great crust. Tastee.

2 glasses of wine (why no beer w/ da burgaz? b/c I felt like it.)

I hope it works out for them... But with all the burga joints already in town and 5 years too late with the gourmet burga scams that's commercialized in NYC... we can only wait and watch if they will FLOP, I know I won't be eating there every week, just Weight Watchers for me.
