Burgerman and I celebrated my birthday at this fine cafe. What terrific service! As it was my birthday, they gave us each a glass of champange on the house, and didn't charge us for our dessert!

The burger, in my opinion, was magnificent. The bun was just right, the burger meat so fresh it crumbled, the temperature was just right, and that truffled cheese made all the difference. Burgerman was an even bigger fan of the fry plate! Who would have guessed that he'd like a fried lemon?

We haven't been back yet, but I do plan on going again.
