A personal blog detailing dining and eating experiences
Tried out this restaurant for a friend’s birthday out in the Castro. Menu is fairly small, but if I were in the area I would go back.
For drinks got a glass of sparkling wine (not sure of the name, but pretty standard), and a Malbec (friend I was with loves that red wine).
For the appetizers, we shared meatballs, pig cheeks, and a salad. All were great.
For the main, I got a double cheese burger that was well done. Thought it was pretty good (but maybe next time I’ll try the pork chops).
Apparently this place is the first gourmet burger place in the Netherlands!
I got the cheeseburger. Overall, the burger was ok, but there were two reasons I didn’t fully enjoy it. The first is that the bread was toasted (which is not really used to with a burger). The second reason is that I think the cheddar cheese overpowered the burger (Swiss cheese might’ve been better to use. I think though that other people would enjoy the burger.
We stopped by this place for dinner on the way back from Napa.
Overall, food was good. I got the cheeseburger with cheese fries. It was a great combo.
Also, I liked the vibe since it was outside, and they had space heaters (and they do serve wine and beer).
