Normally,
I would say the headline says it all, but in truth at the
newly opened Bite Burger House, located in the Fallingbrook
Shopping Centre, the burgers can speak for themselves. In
fact, you would be hard-pressed to find a better burger
anywhere else. As their motto suggests � they really do
take burgers to a whole new level.
Each burger
starts with eight ounces of 100 per cent gluten-free ground
chuck and are served on a fresh brioche bun, which can also
be ordered gluten free for an additional dollar.
Different
versions include the Nana's Fav, which is served with smoked
bacon, jalape�o cream cheese and swiss and cheddar cheese;
the FunGuy, which is served with smoked portabello mushrooms,
goat cheese and truffle; and the Mac Daddy, which is served
with Panko mac and cheese, double smoked bacon and cheddar
whiz.
One of
their most popular burgers actually has no meat at all.
The Gard(e)ner vegan burger starts with a patty made from
black bean and beet and topped with Bermuda onion, Bib lettuce,
aioli, tomato and lettuce.
If burgers
aren't your thing, Bite Burger House also has some of the
best nachos you will find anywhere, including Pork Nachos
that are topped with espresso BBQ pulled pork, pineapple
salsa and cheddar whiz; and the Chicken Nachos that are
topped with morsels of grilled Buffalo chicken, cheddar
whiz, the house pico de gallo salsa and fresh lettuce.
The menu
also includes several vari-eties of poutine; the house chili;
a Cobb Salad; and something called Lamb Cigars which are
made from ground New Zealand lamb wrapped in and deep-fried
in wonton and served with cooling yogurt dip.
Everything
at Bite Burger House is made with the freshest, locally
sourced ingredients and served in a classic environment
with a unique and ever-changing selection of craft beers,
fine wines and specialty cocktails.
For those
who like to have a little wine with their meal, Bite Burger
has BYOW every Sunday night with no corkage fee!
The delicious
food aside, Bite Burger House is truly a cut above the rest.
You simply need to pass through their doors and take in
the incredible aroma of smoked pork and grilled burgers
to ignite your appetite.
The bar
and dining area are impeccable and remind one of an upscale
gastro-pub in Toronto or New York City.
The brains
behind the Bite Burger House experience are owners Bettina
Klims and Glen Klepsch. Born and raised in Ottawa, the couple
has been in the restaurant business for years.
They opened
their first restaurant, the Must Wine Bar, in the Byward
Market in 2008. Six years later, they opened the first Bite
Burger House on Murray Street. You can find their website
