I am not sure about you but Friday is my night off from cooking! It is usually a take-away and a dvd or we pop out for a quick bite with the family. Either way Friday night calls for a chilled evening, with delicious soul food and great company!
What better way to chill and relax into the weekend, than by enjoying a yummy gourmet burger! So What’s Hot on the burger scene in Cape Town? Well if it is Southern Suburbs relaxed dining you are looking for, then Oh My Burger, is your answer to gourmet-burger dining ~ at its best! Oh My Burger (OMB) is situated in the Westlake Lifestyle Centre. OMB is open only 4 nights a week at a restaurant, which doubles as an organic deli/ bakery during the day.
OMB is the wonder child of local Capetonian Karin Volbrecht.
Burgers are my passion,” says Karin. “I wanted to create a place where people could get together and enjoy a delicious selection of gourmet burgers, and that is how the OMB concept was born. Each of our burgers has been very carefully created to marry the best taste experiences into one satisfying, tasty, wholesome meal.”
We recently visited OMB for a family night out {aka me not wanting to cook!} and a great opportunity to sample a few of their burgers. The menu caters to meat-eaters, chicken-eaters, ‘Tim Noakes” eaters and even vegetarians, with the hand-made, home-made kidney bean, potato and sweet corn patty, or the OMB Black Mushroom – a large black mushroom, drizzled with home-made pesto and topped with hallumi cheese. Added to the mix are options of either potato or sweet potato chips or “Posh Chips” – to wet the appetite, Posh Chils can be drizzled with truffle oil and lightly dusted with pamersan cheese.
I decided to try the top selling burger, which is the Babe Burger, a hand-made beef burger topped with crispy bacon, avo and Emmentaler cheese. It was delicous and if you take away the roll and you have the perfect Banting Meal {I did not as Friday night is my “cheat-night”!!!} The hubby had the Lamb Burger, while the girls opted for the OMB burger. The food was really good and we all felt extremely satisfied{mildly stuffed actually – be warned the burgers are huge!}
The OMB burgers range from R65 for the OMB Burger to R110 for The Fat Boy Burger and even the little people are taken care of with a kiddies burger costing R48. If it is something sweeter you are after why not try one of their delicious milkshakes R24 for a small and R34 for a large!
So if you are looking for somewhere to eat on a Wednesday to Saturday evening, that will keep you coming back for more, make sure you pay a visit to OMB. For more info please visit the Oh My Burger facebook page and also find them on twitter and Pintrest.
