[quote=“noddles, post:15, topic:43, full:true”]we’re all left wondering how you’ve come to the position where you had to consume food masticated by kindergartners.

in a severely anti-food waste household (with kids). we eat food dropped on the [very clean] floor, and sometimes, just sometimes, say… when a chunk of $19/lb belcampo pork rib is involved, i’ll eat it even if someone had spat it out. IDGAF.
[quote]I could barely taste that wonderful beef patty under the blanket of overwhelmingly sweet caramelized onion flavor in Belcampo’s cheeseburger.

i can see how that’s may be a issue to some. it’s certainly not nearly as bad as the FO burger, nor the atrociously drowned Petit Trois disaster – that thing is a like a burger ahogada salt bomb – but anywho. Belcampo, unlike PT, allows menu changes. Ask for the burger straight up: cheese, meat.
That’s exactly why I’m not a fan of FO’s burger and why I’ve been avoiding Petit Trois’ as well. And thanks, didn’t know Belcampo allowed changes; it seems like the norm nowadays for restaurants to deny any sort of substitution.
haven’t had cuz my GPS usually tells me: “No to Normandie”, “Fuck Fairfax”. That said, I think GS has one of the finest “neighborhood” burgers in all of LA.
Finally, and this is kinda my tired Belcampo trope: they raise their own livestock. Priceless and incomparable.
How do you think it compares to Golden State’s? I think I’ve tried the Belcampo one (think my partner ordered it, and I took a bite), but I’ve never been to GS.
I had both and I actually liked Golden State’s more than the Belcampo Lamb Burger. Side note I did not like my meal at the Santa Monica Belcampo (poor service and expensive) I was much happier at GCM.
I like the condiments on Belcampo’s burger better, but for the actual meat, I like GS. Maybe I’m just weird, but I thought the lamb at GS was gamier than the Belcampo one, hence why I like it better.
Service was quick and friendly, but it was lunchtime on a Wednesday so not at all crowded.
