a pretty good burger: Zaitzeff


We decided on burgers this evening. I had been sniffing around Zaitzeff lately...the interior of the Financial District cafe seemed: clean, simple and subtly rustic. And the menu boasted wine: is there any other way?

We both selected Kobe burgers with bacon and avocado. A thick, delicious mess with sauteed onions, crisp lettuce and tomato on a homemade Portuguese bun. We shared an order of hand cut fries: salty and earthy. I'm going to go ahead and admit that after my first few bites I had to get a fork and knife. This is a first for me. There's just no other way.

If you have it, I'd recommend putting a dab of Sriracha in your ketchup.
