The perfect burger

The most popular burger joint in Berlin, The Bird, uses English muffins for their buns, which was/is a point of contention. People also got pretty cranky about the menu, specifically some of the burgers names were deemed ‘offensive,’ the instructions on the perfect burger temp (MR), and how to eat them — with one’s hands, of course.

The owner’s a New Yorker through & through, and his attitude permeates the entire menu. The patties are massive (at least 8oz), and very greasy. I think they’re still great burgers, but my system doesn’t handle that much grease well anymore.

Plus, there’s an amazing new smashburger place in town I’d easily scoot the 25 min to, and it doesn’t destroy my insides :slight_smile:
