The Precinct at Alberton (Formerly The Port Club)

But no, this American fad won't work. Bloody Seppos!

Gold burger at golden grove is also excellent. I have had a fascination with burger bars lately and am in the process of experimenting on a near weekly basis. I have attended 4 places so far and I rank my experiences as follows:

1. Burger theory
2. Gold burger (very very close second)
3. Nordburger
........Daylight!.........
4.......
5. Burger Foundry

I obviously have many to try still and have FB's, Burgastromony, chuck wagon and burger club on the horizon for the next 6 weeks or so. Burger Foundry is shit.

Granted I haven't yet tried the Burger Theory bricks and mortar, but I always thought their food truck burgers were overrated. Low & Slow slayed them for mine.

I've only had Burger Theory at the Union St store, and yeah, its good as. Too many `gourmet' burgers have the patty as nearly a sphere, and/or have the texture of a brick.

It's time the Port Club bistro followed what the Prince (POW) has been doing right for years. Great salad bar with a simple but well spread side dishes and good old pub meals. This American crap the Port Club is trying to do just doesn't work. We're on many occasions have given them ideas and they say they'll try them, but hardly ever take it any further. Also, there are way too many steak dishes. It's time the PCB listened to it's customer once in a while. You know the old saying - The customer is always right... well most times they are.

If you weren't such a serial sook I'd have thought this was some sort of parody post.

I like Nord Burger best out of the ones I've tried - I haven't been to lots but I like them more than Burger Theory. The new one at Hindmarsh is very handy for dropping by on the way to Adelaide Oval from my side of town

Slightly off topic but I just want to say that so far I haven't had a single burger in Melbourne that comes close to being as good as Burger Theory.

They've recently opened up in Melbourne - 293 La Trobe Street - http://www.burgertheory.com/

I can see the burger thing slowly dying out as hipsters lead the charge towards the new bread & dripping fad.

Liver - I think

So basically you can improve on it by just having bacon.

What can't be improved by adding bacon?

And subtracting liver.

I don't really rate Burger Theory.

Fudds is the way to go

 

[cmpower]

127 days is one of my favourite burger joints

 

[Concussion]

[Zakk Wylde]

I like Semolina.

Fancy Burger for mine.

Gold burger at golden grove is also excellent

Not really a fan personally, although the chips are pretty great. I feel a bit sorry for the guy though, there never seems to be anyone in there.
