Shoreditch House LondonThe Shoreditch House is one of many private member clubs in London. So if you aren't a member and manage to eat here, you might want to order something more .... sophisticated. Just to make a statement that you do not belong to the creative bunch of directors, writers, actors, and other artists that make up the average guests.
Although this is once again not a specialized Burger place, I must write about it as it is one of the better burgers, one should have had in one's life. Especially if you are a bit hungover. Trust me you will appreciate it.
This burger is a feast of sinful indulgence. As it comes fresh from the kitchen, sizzling, smelling of grilled meat, molten cheese, and toasted bread. Remember to work of those calories the next day, or preferably the same evening.
The burger consists a freshly ground meat patty which has been flame grilled, resulting in some charring and smokey flavours. The lettuce comes in a single leaf as opposed to the cut up slices other restaurants are putting on their burgers (hello BigMac). Very important: it is underneath the meat where it can act as a moisture barrier to the bottom bun. The homemade bun, although a bit too fancy for a true sin-burger, has the right appeal as it matches the environment. Nothing wrong with it, just because it matches the rustic feeling of the unshaped charred meatloaf, strong cheese, and the fresh greens it is served with.
The side fries are well fried. Golden, yellow-brown, crispy, not fatty, just right. Just like the burger
du musst Marienburger probieren, mein Freund
