Todays adventure was to Huxtaburger in Prahran (also in Collingwood and CBD). This place is from the same people behind Huxtable Restaurant in Fitzroy and is a fast food, take away styled burger joint. They do have 2 large benches and several outdoor tables if you’d like to enjoy your meal there.
The concept is derived from the Huxtable family in the famous 80’s sitcom, the Cosby Show! All the burgers are named after the characters, for example the “Denise” (the hot one) with jalapenos, the “Theo” which is a double patty, double cheese, bacon and BBQ sauce, the “Clair” is a chicken burger, and the “Rudy” is a kids burger!!
I couldn’t go past “Bills” although to remain consistent with the other names, I can’t help but think it should be called the “Cliff”?! Anyway, this classic burger is with the lot, ie Wagyu Beef Patty, BLT, cheese, egg, pineapple, pickles, mustard, etc in between a soft brioche bun (it also comes with beetroot, but I had this taken out!)
The novelty of the names, etc had me waiting with excitement and when it arrived, it didn’t disappoint! The combination of flavours worked really well and made for a very tasty and satisfying burger. Just the right size and easy to manage too, which made for a clean eating experience.
The bucket of salty, crinkle cut chips on the side were delightful too!!
Definitely worth a try, and I will be going back to try the “Theo”.
