Mr Burger, by Obelix

Mr Burger has been floating around in food truck land in Melbourne for some time now. While Bureaucrat (Little Bourke Street outlet in 2015) and Snooze (Vic Markets outlet in 2013) have both reviewed the shop-front versions of Mr Burger, F convinced me to try their iconic Mr Burger from the original food truck.

So here it is in its simplistic construction: a sesame bun, ground beef patty, cheese, pickle, mayo, ketchup, onion, lettuce and a slice of tomato. To be honest, it is not much different from the Hungry Jack's Whopper in terms of its constituents. But that is not meant to be a negative thing. It's a classic presentation and represents what a burger is to many. There are times in my life where I yearn for a soft shell burger on a charcoal brioche bun but then again, there are times when only a classic will do.
