Burgers Etc!

Dearest followers!!!

Please accept our deepest apologies for not having posted in AGES! Mr. Fussy and I have been VERY busy bees planning our wedding for this summer, finishing school, working, and starting up different blogs all over the place! In honour of you, our lovely followers, and in honour of this beautiful summer that has just started, we're introducing to you a wicked delicious restaurant. Now, it's been so long since we've posted, we don't even really remember how we're scaling the restaurants we decide to rate, so perhaps from now on we will try something a little more simple? Lets see how this goes:

I don't know if many of you Vancouverites/Burnabians know, but you have a GEM of a burger/smoked meat joint right on Hastings street in the Burnaby heights area. Mr. Fussy and I decided to take a break form our wedding dieting recently and helped ourselves to one of these each:

Of course, my delicious smoked beef burger had cheese in it, and Mr. Fussy's did NOT. Mine also had bacon, for really, if you think about it, what is a burger without bacon? Might as well go all out. The service was really fast for the fact that their small restaurant was half full, and the waitresses are always knowledgeable and polite! Better yet, they offer such a huge menu that far exceeds anyones expectations. The tangy BBQ sauce is made fresh, the meat is all fresh, smoked in Cal's beautiful smoker...I mean, what is not to love? We adore the food, the sides are delicious, the location is close by...beauty.

The only thing I think we can see being a problem is the parking! There isn't much room to park, but...it's a sacrifice we're willing to make for fresh, delicious food of this caliber. When you're finished eating your meal, you will guaranteed feel like you're full of real food. Mc What? I took mine with a side of corn nibblets (that were sweet and delicious) and Mr. Fussy had his with good ole frites. Another thing we love about this place is that you can find the old Boylan sodas in the original glass bottles! You know, the colas that are made with real cane sugar? Brilliant! 

The decor is sweet, the place is really clean, and the waitresses, the chefs, and Cal are all really nice people. We went once with the Chatterbox family and had the smoked ribs. They were legitimately to die for. Check out the website for information, and please be sure to take a look through the menu as well! We rate this place a 9.5 out of 10, the .5 deduction being only for the lack of parking (which I'm sure is something that really can't be helped by the restaurant, really).
