    Looks like a fantastic burger, and it better be for that price! A runny egg yolk and beef just go together so well. However, the reservation fee and time limit make the place a total turn off for me. But, I'm glad you enjoyed it. Dessert looked good, even though it was "free of fun"😂(and I totally agree!) Listen, not one, no one gets out alive. While we are on this little rock in space, make the best of it and enjoy everything you can!

      Absolutely! Yeah, that was a really special burger. It was annoying dealing with that reservation fee and the dining time limit. Next time, I'll just sit at the counter. It never got too crowded anyways. Indeed, the dessert was tasty, but I still prefer ice cream with dairy. Overall, despite the issues, I made the best of it that evening.

    I finally came back today after almost 4 yrs. Was here the Friday before the city shut done for covid in 2020 and I honestly thought they didn't make it through. The Mac and cheese was AMAZING!!!!!!! with the chunks of bacon....OMG!! The first bite of the hamburger took me back and it was so good. The fries were very hot and fresh. Didn't have room for dessert but we'll be back. Yes we paid for the reservation and it was worth it since it was very busy and we were seated immediately.

    Love your videos, keep it up! So I have been to Minetta many times and the black label is my favorite. Unfortunately I hadn't really gotten around to try other places yet but I see you have been to a few other burger places in NYC, curious how would you rank them thus far?

    • @Jamesnu
      @Jamesnu  Рік тому +1

      Thank you! So far Minetta's black label burger is my clear favorite, but then it gets sort of tricky ranking them. I think Au Cheval might be my number two followed by Raoul's for number three. The Emmy burger at Emily would come in 4th and Peter Luger's burger would probably be my fifth favorite. However, I think those rankings could change just based on what I have a taste for from one day to the next.

    So I know that the name refers to the egg served on the burger, but you still might have to twist my arm to get me to have a burger at a place named after a horse.
    Having said that, while I have yet to go to a new place because of your recommendation, you have in the past given good reviews to more than one place that I know and like, so I think it's safe for me to follow your taste.😃
    I remember 30 or 40 years ago when one of the Boulud restaurants first charged $20 or $25 for a burger and there was outrage and amazement... now I suppose an haute cuisine gourmet burger is probably $50 or more... actually, you would pay well over $20 now for a burger at P.J. Clarke's. Did I also see fried bologna on the menu at Au Cheval? That sounds interesting. I suppose if you had a burger and also fried bologna that would be the "daily double".

    The burger looks incredible, and I would be tempted to order the bacon even though I haven't had any bacon for 5 years. You said the cheese was sharp cheddar, and later you said it was American cheese. Which one? I cannot stand that most places use American cheese that is all chemicals and not too tasty. For a pricey burger, I think blue cheese, goat cheese or a strong aged cheddar should be used. The fries did not look like anything special. The best fries have the skins on them and cut inside the restaurant.

    • @Jamesnu
      @Jamesnu  11 місяців тому

      It was an amazing burger and that bacon was some of the best that I've ever had! The cheese is American cheddar, which is how the restaurant describes it on the menu.

    au cheval doesnt mean to put an egg on it. "Cheval" means "horse", and "Au" can be translated to "at". So you can translate it as : At the Horse. Horse being the name of the restaurant. A bit weird when you try to translate it I wont lie..

      That's true, that's the direct translation, but the phrase also has the meaning of putting a runny egg on top of a sandwich.

    I've heard some chefs say that multiple patty burgers shouldn't be served on brioche buns because the buns can't take all the liquid that comes out after the 3rd or 4th bite, and it all degenerates into a sloppy mess thereafter. Lots of people seem to like it, though.
