Food Style? Burgers

I’m in the mood for a burger. Amsterdam looks like it has a very strong burger scene, with some Dutch specialties like bitterballen making its way to even the local McDonalds menu. However, something else has caught my eye at this casual joint near my hotel - a burger with truffle sauce. It’s got all the right ingredients to make something amazing, so let’s see how it turns out.

Mains


Truffle Royal: Angus beef, brioche deluxe, parmesan cheese, beef bacon, chives, arugula, truffle sauce
First of all, I just have to say, I love thick cut fries, and I love mayonnaise as a condiment instead of tomato ketchup. Europeans definitely have the point for that one. As for the burger, it’s deliciously meaty and the truffle is subtle but there in the sauce. I think a little bit more arugula would have helped to cut the richness of the sauce, especially with so much fatty content in the burger. The bun is nice and soft and the patty is cooked medium rare, with a clear pinkness visible from the outside. An excellent combination of flavours that delivered. Some red onion would have been the perfect addition to add crunch and acidity.
