It's the last day of September and the warm Vancouver weather seems to
be holding up believe it or not (well, except for those chilly mornings). Hang on to the last bit of the warm, extended
summer weather and take this opportunity to enjoy a delicious patio meal.
Romer’s Burger Bar opened up in my neighbourhood a short
while ago and it finally got warm enough for me to enjoy one of their tasty
burgers on their beautiful patio overlooking the Fraser River.
Unlike most burger joints, Romer’s Burger Bar doesn’t include any
fries or salad with its burgers. Because I couldn’t enjoy my burger without a
side of fries, I ordered a basket of their garlic fries ($5) to supplement my
Standard burger ($9). The fries had a very strong raw, garlickly flavour.
Romer’s has a whole page of different fixins for diners to customize their burgers. I chose to add local goat cheese ($1.50). It was a bit of a disappointment because for a whole extra $1.50 on top of what I paid for the burger, all I got was a tiny smear of cheese. Although it added great flavour to the burger, it was certainly not enough for the entire burger.

I also had the opportunity to try out the SoCal burger
($10), a turkey patty with avocado, tomatoes, watercress and few other typical
add ons. This was a super flavourful burger, juicy and extremely tasty.
