Top Notch Beefburgers

Ok, we didn't eat pizza at every meal while in Chicago.   Although I probably could have!   Now we visit a place that I heard the burgers here pretty good....    better than good, I heard they were Top Notch.

For our burger experience, I opted for a patty melt..  Not just any patty melt, I went big.   I really wanted to taste the quality beef.    I went with a 3/4lb beef patty melt...




Sorry for the poor photo, I think we were kinda hungry (which is why I ordered the 3/4lb version) and just snapped a quick photo before diving in...

Bad photography aside, this patty melt was delicious.  The rye bread it was served had a distinct buttery taste to it - just like it was buttered for the grill.   The beef was really tasty and cooked well-done  which normally makes it a little bit dry.   However, they must have pulled it off as soon as the pink disappeared because it didn't taste like a well done or overcooked burger.  It was juicy and flavorful.  Grilled onions on top of the patty gave a nice depth to the flavor and the cheddar cheese oozed out the sides.  They served sliced pickles on the side, but I threw them into the mix as well and enjoyed every bite of this burger.

I also had a banana milkshake.  It was very thick, but not too think that it couldn't be slurped up through a straw.  They used fresh bananas that tasted ripe and delicious.   Sometimes from other places I order a banana shake and either the banana flavor is a syrup or the banana's they use aren't ripe enough and don't produce enough flavor.  This one was perfect..

Overall - I highly recommend Top Notch Beefburgers for their Top Notch food..
