Good to listen to. How are issues?
On this journey for BurgerTours, we take you to Burlington, ON, house to top-of-the-line piers in Ontario to view an incoming thunderstorm from. Deciding on the place was straightforward. One of many recognized burger joints within the space is Boob Burger. Working simply steps from the principle road in Burlington since 2016, Boon Burger additionally has a location in Oakville with an analogous menu.
Also referred to as Canada’s first all vegan burger café, Boon Burger prides itself in being 100% animal pleasant – therefore all the images of animals lining the partitions of their café.

The Nasty Vegan 2.0/Photograph by Andrew Hockridge |
I ordered the Nasty Vegan 2.0 which was loaded with Bermuda mayo, tzatziki dressing, lettuce, tomato, pickles, sautéed mushrooms, cheese sauce and crispy onions. The burger seemed mouth-watering and a handful. I couldn’t select the place to start, so I attempted and located the underside, solely to have the buns collapse and the burger collapse. So I grabbed a knife to chop it in half for higher consumption. I managed to eat the burger with a knife and a fork, and I feel I made the fitting determination.
The burger was scrumptious from begin to end. The sauces and the dressings had been dancing with my style buds. The burger was comfortable and succulent and the toppings had been a pleasant addition. The plant-based vegan patty was tender and juicy and it was the proper flavour for this burger. I actually can’t consider something that was dangerous about this burger, both than the truth that it fell aside in my fingers, however that doesn’t take away from the truth that it simply tasted superb.
General, the Nasty Vegan is an excellent plant-based vegan pleasant possibility for Bonn Burger to have. There was one thing about this burger that made it stand out from each burger I’ve ever eaten and that’s saying rather a lot. Whether or not it was the pairing of dressing and sauces on the burgers, the recent toppings on it or the freshness of the patty, Boon Burger have crafted this burger very elegantly. I give excessive remarks to the cooks behind the creation. I loved each second of it, and I hope to return to strive extra scrumptious creations from their ever-evolving menu.

Welcome again to a different BurgerTour. We enterprise as soon as once more out of Toronto to the Metropolis of Burlington the place we pay a go to to a different native favorite, Boon Burger. Having two places in Burlington and neighbouring Oakville, the Burlington location was a extra handy place for us to strive. Located alongside close to the boardwalk, this spot is ideal to seize a fast meal whereas taking in the summertime warmth. It wasn’t the summer season warmth, nevertheless, that attracted us to Boon Burger. It was the truth that all the pieces was plant primarily based. I’ve had many plant primarily based burgers up to now, however this place particularly I used to be most enthusiastic about.

Boon Burger affords the standard burgers that you’d anticipate at any burger joint, however the distinction is… its more healthy! I feel that’s one thing all of us search for when indulging in our responsible meals pleasures, however nonetheless holding our waist traces in verify.
I opted for the Jalapeno Chedda Burger – plant primarily based patty layered with Bermuda mayo, cheese, a beneficiant quantity of jalapeño peppers, topped with lettuce, onion tomato. That is all contained between two comfortable brioche buns.
Taking the primary chew… all the pieces simply fell aside, however in a great way. The flavours had been a mixture of candy, savoury, and spicy. An incredible mixtures for such a easy, but advanced burger. For an excellent whereas I assumed I used to be consuming a taco as a substitute of a burger. At one level I simply gave up and took the burger aside, and completed it off with a fork.
General, it was an excellent burger. When it comes to the warmth, it was on and off. I felt to start with there was an absence of the jalapeño peppers till I received in direction of the center, and that is the place my mouth felt prefer it was on hearth. By far this was the most effective plant primarily based burger I’ve had. The flavours simply labored and was put collectively completely. This was undoubtedly definitely worth the drive and I’ll undoubtedly be again!
