559628 Tue Sep 23 12:20:57 -0700 2008 8 15 Pennsylvania 0 4055580 I’ve been to Pub & Kitchen twice now. There are two burgers on the menu, the Simple Burger and the Windsor Burger. I got the Simple Burger last week and wasn’t impressed. The meat had a strange consistency to me. Then a friend sent me this link raving about the other burger: http://www.phoodie.info/2008/09/15/pub-and-kitchen-pabbit-perfection/ So this week I tried the Windsor and still wasn’t impressed. I expected the meat to be an upgrade but it had the same weird consistency. The bun was how I like it (i.e. soft and grilled) but overall I found the burger and the fries to be really uninspired.

I didn't care for the fries much, though. The potato crisps on the bar snack menu are much better.

It wasn’t dry and crumbly though which again to me made it strange since it wasn’t really moist or rich tasting either. The link mentions: “Chef Johnny Mac starts with slaughtered-ordered-cryovacced-and-shipped-same-day Painted Hills Natural Beef, and makes magic. He says he’s been perfecting this burger since leaving SnackBar, and uses percentages when creating his patties.” I would love to know what these “percentages” consist of but I suspect that they are using a leaner beef in the mix.

Any unique beers on tap that you cannot find elsewhere?

If I remember correctly they have 6-8 taps, nothing I've never heard of before but mostly good stuff, Rogue Dead Guy, Victory Fest (I think? It was a marzen). Sample a few things from the bar snacks menu. Fri Oct 24 08:36:11 -0700 2008 4126255 29811 Buckethead 3 4126304 cool, I look forward to it . As always, thank you BH. Fri Oct 24 08:49:36 -0700 2008 4126268 21388 juice 4 4126403 Sure, let us know how it goes! My favorite thing there (so far) is the chicken and irish biscuits. Fri Oct 24 09:58:47 -0700 2008 4126304 29811 Buckethead 5 4131671 The food was good. We all had burgers and everyone was pretty happy (they only have 1 burger on the menu now, the Windsor). My friend said she liked it better than Good Dog. We got the mussel special which was good, not great. Another friend raved about the cheese dish while I had the fish mop app (almost like a white fish spread on a small piece of toast.) Tasty. The girls enjoyed the house Malbec while I drank Speckled Hen, Haufbrau original (which I didn't care for, too light) and then a Vicotry Marzen they had on tap. The marzen was the best. It's a cool spot and got pretty busy as we were leaving. Happy I tried it. Mon Oct 27 09:05:56 -0700 2008 4126403 21388 juice
