American Diners.....in Edinburgh???

The City Cafe
Well, up by The Tron there is this gem of a place.
Make no bones about it, this place is designed to be a 50's American Diner.
By night it turns in to a pub, need to try it one night actually!! I just went there for lunch.

Big comfy booths with all the sauces, seasonings,serviettes and menus all tucked up at the wall. Encouraging as I now have the means to put what I want on...what I want....a nice juicy burger!!

Really good friendly staff, good service, good presentation and what I was really impressed with....no need to use any of the sauces for the burger, just a dod of ketchup for the chips...nice chunky chips that were cut thick like planks and everything perfectly seasoned.

I got the Californian burger, chicken breast with guacamole and the usual salad items. It was delicious and very well seasoned and cooked to perfection leaving the chicken juicy! Liked the idea of the chips being served in a miniature deep fry basket. The burger roll is specially made for the City Cafe and it was quality bread, canot stand the usual standard sesame buns you usually get.

My colleague got the Apache burger...he loved it...check out the webpage for the different types of burger on offer...I'll be slowly working my way through them. The City Cafe unfortunately my pics are a bit dark I'll get better ones next time I'm in.
