London’s most prestigious burger blogger (er no, not me) has created his own burger menu.  Burgerac is my fav London burger detective, and his taste in music is almost as good as mine. He’s not a Bruce Springsteen fan (I’m working on it) but he is all about great tunes. What a relief! London now…

Review: Parrilla Natural (Burger), Algarve, Portugal

This seemingly unimportant burger became much more significant when Springsteen joined the stage with The Rolling Stones in Lisbon recently. I get through a lot of burgers. I’m too embarrassed to tell you how many. Let’s just say about 50% of the burgers I eat make it on to here. I need to choose the…

Review: The Joint, Brixton, London

Are you one of those people loitering around the bakery section of the supermarket? I am. I can’t resist the smell of freshly baked bread. If you’re into that sort of thing too then you must get your ass down to The Joint in Brixton, South London. The Joint is well known for being one…
