Burger Wellington


Wellington On A Plate, the capital’s food festival, kicked off today and runs until 26th August. As part of the festival there is a competition called Burger Wellington, where restaurants create a burger and offer it in their restaurants. The eating public then submit scores, and there is a cook-off amongst the restaurants with the highest average score. A number of these restaurants are within easy striking distance of the office, and so a plan has formed…



Today we went to Capri Bar and Eatery, a bistro just up the road from our office, to sample their Buxom BBQ Beef Burger. This turned out not to be a burger in the traditional sense, but a fillet steak in a burger bun; it was cooked quite rare, but the meat was good enough to justify this. The smoky barbecue flavour was also a plus. Accompanied by string fries, this is one of the more expensive burgers on the list. I scored it a 7 on the Burger Wellington scale - mainly on account of it not being a "proper" burger.
