Lunch at Romer's Burger Bar at River District Centre in East Vancouver on May 8, 2012.
Devon and I hit up the new River District development in the Fraserview/Killarney neighbourhood of Southeast Vancouver for some burgers. Romer's takes it meals seriously. Up front, they let you know they don't rush and your burger will take as long as it take meaning a little extra time to be prepared just right.
Unlike most restaurants, fries don't come standard with your burger so I got an order of garlic fries. I love fries, am not picky, and garlic makes everything better. They were very crisp and didn't skimp on the garlic.
I ordered the righteous rib burger with thick-sliced applewood bacon, braised short rib, sweet onions, Gorgonzola garlic sauce, and fresh thyme leaves. It was pretty solid and well-cooked, a mouthful.
Devon went with the magic mushroom burger with angus beef, chopped portobellos, arugula, herb and garlic Boursin cheese, and caramelized onion with a twist.
For a dollar more, you can "make it green" and substitute your bun with two rolls of lettuce. Needless to say, it got messy and she ended up eating hers as a salad.
It was a very filling meal and the beef quality was high with nicely cooked burgers and crisp, tasty fries. We enjoyed the meal overlooking the seaside dock in this up and coming development.
