“It had the best burger I’ve eaten in my life. The Lamburger, with few fixings because that’s all it needed. Great bun, slice of cheese and mayo aioli.”

replying to u/chocobos1: I find myself craving the black vinegar sauce with sichuan peppercorn at Xian. I've been to the original in Flushing, as seen on No Reservations, and I continue to think about it. If The Breslin was still open, I'd go back there dozens of times for their triple cooked fries.
