Who doesn’t like a good burger? No one. Well, I’m sure someone doesn’t but they don’t really count. Me, I love a good burger and the better burgers I’ve had lately have been at Byron Burger’s Gloucester Road branch, and more recently at their new Soho branch. Byron Burger has spawned seven stores across London in the last two years, with more (this is secret squirrel: he’s thinking Canary Wharf and Covent Garden but shhhh, don’t tell anyone) opening in the coming months.

And here I thought my post from the LA trip in October was big. Goes to show how much I know because this post laughs in the face of the old one. It sh*ts all over the old one, and seriously, can you believe this trip was actually shorter?! I can’t. But it was. My luggage put on 6kgs while it was there and so that it didn’t feel bad, I stuffed myself full of SoCal culinary goodness and gained like 6kgs myself. Or something like that. I mean, this post doesn’t even cover it all! There was already that dinner at Market, followed by channelling my inner Homer with a pizza & beer dinner. And there’s also a fabulous dinner at Izaka-ya by Katsu-ya but that one’s gonna get a post of its own. This post is for all the adhoc eating that I did. And boy did I do a lot. Buckle up!

I started doing this post the way I start all of my posts. I flick through my photos and after wiping a sufficient amount of drool off my keyboard, I get my creative juices flowing and smack them into some sort of an aesthetic collage, “kook” them a little, “vignette” the sides and supposedly, on the other end of this process, I am presented with a unique piece of eathography. But not this time. Because remember, Ted, the miniature gerbil in charge of the Creativity Dept in my head was accidentally made redundant not so long ago.

I’ve never professed to know anything about what makes food “good”. I mean, sweet chilli sauce is one of my favourite condiments for gods sake and I know that saying blogging that out loud has already condemned me to the bland and empty depths of foodie hell, to spend eternity in a damp pit of “nasty” condiments like sweet chilli, mayonnaise and BBQ sauce. Oh my, what a lovely hell.

There are three things in life that I can’t say no to.
Offer any of those to me, in any order, or better yet – all together – and I am in a slice of catty heaven.
