Who? Juliann, Navi, Mana, Jade

Food Style? High Class Tapas

Newcomers to the food scene, Egmont St Eatery sits unassumingly around the corner from Four Kings/Five Stags on the tiny little street that runs behind the Soho Apartments. I find them a bit overpriced for what they serve, but at least the food is good quality. I didn't originally schedule these guys into my plan, but several recommendations from others meant I couldn't pass this opportunity up. We went in instead of our regularly scheduled Spicy Food Tuesday restaurant.

Burger: Cheese, Beets and Meat

A good solid burger with plenty of well-balanced flavours - sweetness from the beets, savouriness from the onion, saltiness from the beef - and just that extra richness from the cheese. Though the buns look a bit black and burned, they were more caramelised to accentuate the smokiness and give it more crunch.

An impressive burger that hit the spot. I gave them eight out of ten.
