Yesterday I met up with the Vic Burger Blog guy, Donald, to mow down on a burger to add to his outstanding list of Victoria burger reviews.
I wanted to hit Cabin 12 on Pandora Street. Last week, I met up with Robin Farrell of Kool FM for a bite, and we ventured to Cabin 12 and I was mighty impressed with the service, cost and quality of the meal. Robin and I rocked wraps, this time, Donald and I would be trying the burger.
Donald ordered some creation with a fried egg, some bacon and cheese on top. Pretty much a breakfast AND lunch combo thing. I went with their classic, Cabin 12 burger.
What to say about it? I loved that it wasn’t too saucy, an overly saucy burger makes me want to drag net the ocean bottom. The burger came open faced on a hearty whole wheat bun and came with all the standard fixings.
Right away, the burger could do no worse than par.
The patty tasted like some kind of homemade creation from a picnic long past. It had that “mom” feel about it and some surprises as you bit in. Red and Green peppers? sure, I hope that is what it was. Donald and I had a hard time deciding if this was good or not. The dude mentioned that the burger was very similar to the Floyd’s Burger, something about the owner being a former employee?
For the $8 something I paid and the funky vibe of the joint I’ll give this burger a firm recommend and it will become a new favourite diner for me. I’ll need to drag Coral down sometime for a breakfast. Ha, maybe this morning when I wake up before work. Friday is pay day!
Go with yourself.
The Morning After 
interesting…
i’m personally a burger purist. meat and spices only please. i hate veggies in my patty, unless it’s a veggie burger.
the all time worst offender for me is when people put onions in their patties. i hate onions, and thus the entire burger is inedible.
that burger heaven place in new west does that… i ate there once about 10 years ago, and never again. i was very upset about it, especially when there’s no mention of it on the menu.
i do enjoy the open face presentation. makes sure the lettuce stays crunchy until i’m ready to assemble.
and $8 is a good price for a burger.
yeah, its a neat place. Next time you take an adventure to Victoria, we’ll go. It is a really simple little place. Funky, cheap and friendly.
Donald and I, like I said, conflicted on the peppers in the patty… but it was something surprising… so yeah.
