Seems to be the trend these days, burger places pop out of nowhere invading every corner of Casablanca...and we love it! Nothing better than going out for having meaty meat, when you're really in the mood and you can't have one is worst than a drug. So we tried this new little restaurant called Gourmet Burger, that is a chain already established in Rabat and is already very successful here in our white town. Altough considered by some people to be fast food, we rather think that having a burger can be a special time between friends, and even so anti-romantic that can be cool for a date.
Gourmet Burger is located in a tiny street close to Bv d'Anfa, you spot the place at once, it stands out with its very clean and modern style, just 'comme il faut'. You can remain on the first level and check how your order is made in the open and spotless kitchen, or you can go for a more intimate experience in the mezzanine.
In the menu: two sizes of burgers, every topping you can dream of in case you want compose your own, or if you're lazy to think they propose some burgers with different styles; they all come with fries and a mini (decorative) salad. The small ones are around 40-50 dhs and the big ones between 60 and 100. We tried the american one with pickle cheese and fried egg. I was surprised they didnt ask how cooked I wanted the steak (it arrived medium, but I would have prefered it 'blue' or rare). Ten points less. Other thing did not convince us was that we asked for mayonnaise and they brought one but was not home made, the usual Hellman's with its particular artificial taste. But the presentation was very good and the place is quite cozy with all those wood tables and Charles Eames chairs; nonetheless the lighting is a bit agressive and had no music as background, but they just opened so it may -or may not- improve with time. They do not have alcohol license.
