San Francisco, CA 94123
Occasion: Dinner after grocery shopping at Trader Joe's. It took us half an hour to find parking, but it was worth it. Something to compare to Umami Burger about 6 blocks down the street. 12.02.11
Drinks: Cane Sugar Cola and Ginger Lime Soda
Fry Fecta Fries
Here we have a trifecta of fries: Russet Fries, Sweet Potato Fries and Zucchini Onion Haystack.
I couldn't decide between the three types, so I decided to try all three. The russet are just regular fries with what seemed to be parsley sprinkled on top. I love sweet potato fries, but the highlight in this bowl were the zucchini onion haystack. Graded zucchini and onion are deep fried and freaking delicious. It's not starchy like the fries where you get to bite into something mushy. Since they're grated, it's light and crispy. We loved the light crisp of it.

Truffle Parmesan Fries, Gruyere, Avocado, Caramelized Onions, Watercress, Dijon Mustard
Everything in this burger appealed to me. I was a bit disappointed as my burger only had like 1 or 2 truffle parmesan fry, which didn't have too much of the truffle flavor to it. Caramelized onions were sweet and soft. The use of watercress instead of lettuce was different, but it worked as it is thinner and easier to fit into the burger. I love avocado in anything so that definitely added flavor to it. I though the flavor of the dijon mustard actually took over flavor wise. It was hard to taste everything in one bite because the taste of dijon mustard was very overpowering. Between the classic burger and this burger, I would choose this one eventhough not all the flavors were executed well.
