Five Guys Burgers and Fries recently opened a location on 7th Avenue in Park Slope, Brooklyn. The D.C. chain (with 400 locations to date) has been highly lauded by numerous publications- but I'm not sure it merits the title the "Willy Wonkas of Burgercraft" (Washingtonpost.com). I think it's safe to say that customers can get a consistently decent burger here. But if you're looking for memorable, I'd head to Shake Shack or the nearby Dram Shop. The burgers come in two sizes- standard and the "Little" (pictured) which is actually the perfect size to order if you are getting fries too. Toppings are key and more importantly FREE- so don't hold back. With some inspiration and a little creativity one could probably craft a great burger. I stuck with a few of the basics, tomato, mayo and cheese. But the burger still remained a bit on the dry side. Next time I'll go with more sauces...
