Nash and I hadn’t had a gourmet burger in a while so we took a walk to Roncesvalles to The Rude Boy. The place has a casual vibe, a bar and cool posters like this one:
I ordered the Greek Spot (top photo of post) which had cucumber and tomato salad, oregano vinaigrette, feta cheese, pickled red onion and tzaziki. I added a piece of their home-cured double smoked bacon for fun. I thought it had a good combination of flavours and perfect amount of juiciness to the burger.
Nash had the signature Rude Boy burger containing home cured pemeal bacon, their double smoked bacon, smoked cheddar, fried egg, pickled red onion, garlic aioli, blanche de chambly mustard.
We shared some fries and of course we took the option to add feta! There was a hint of herb and the ketchup had a kick from jalapenos.
I also had a sour summery cocktail to accompany my meal (the name and ingredients currently elude me).
Despite the name of the restaurant, the service was friendly and we loved our burgers! We’ll definitely be back.
