We recommend the Mr Ed burgers to anyone who has become a bit jaded with 8bit and the like. We’ve received burgers that don’t see us waddling out of the place having completely stuffed ourselves.īut we consider the quality of the ingredients and cooking and the resultant flavours well worth the money we have paid. We’ve enjoyed and admired the Mr Ed take on burgers. The jalapenos are somewhat out of place but the cornichons hit the spot and the carrot and cucumber are true delights that are pickled somewhat in the sweet, delicate Japanese style. We both love pickles so we both love this. We complete our meal with a mixed pickle plate of jalapenos, carrot, cucumber and cornichons ($5.50). Once-boiled and once-fried, they have tender, hot innards that veritably scream: “Potato!” My heart sinks a little when I spy what appear to be wedges but … wedge-shaped they may be, but our chips are fabulous. The beef patty is about an inch thick, well seasoned and delicious, and the dressings and zucchini noodles are wonderful.įor sides, we get a small serve of the home-made fat chips ($4). I go the Wagyu beef burger with pickled zucchini, raclette, baby leaves, house relish and mustard mayonnaise ($14.50, top photo) – and it, too, is a doozy. He’s (very) used to hamburger patties, whereas this is in effect a steak sanger and he grapples, but only very momentarily, with the eating skills required.

He loves the way all the varied, high-falutin’ ingredients – including “the nicer than normal ham” and the runny egg – combine. It’s proves to be a very messy proposition but that’s fine, of course. How about rainbow slaw, purple congo/kipfler/bullhorn pepper fry-up or merlot pickled onion rings?Īhh, but not tonight – on with the burgers!īennie goes the Buddha burger of minute eye fillet, soft egg, kassler, oven dried tomatoes, crumbled aged cheddar, house relish, roasted garlic aioli ($16). Having looked at the varied ingredients and the prices, Bennie wondered aloud if the Mr Ed burgers would offer sufficient eating.Īmong the ingredients listed for the nine burgers are pickled zucchini, Hereford beef, bourbon bacon jam, confit baby tomatoes, tomatillo salsa and shredded kale.īut will we get a good feed or dainty, boutique burgers gone in a mouthful?Īctually, at another time and on another visit I might choose to compile a meal just from the very alluring list of sides. The previous night, Bennie I had perused the menu – see the Mr Ed website here. Tonight we’re in the house to check out the burgers. Having checked it out in the former regard – see here – it’s become a sometime coffee spot for me, and perhaps I’ll grab one of their terrific pies or sweeties. “Cafe By Day, Burger Bar By Night” – that’s Mr Ed in Kensignton.
