Manhattn's Brussels (7.5)
Our first burger place was Manhattn's, where they promise american style burgers and hand-cut fries. Overall experience was satisfying but not impressive.
Menu: Great choice of burgers, soft drinks and sauces. Options for vegetarians are a plus.
Burgers: Decent meat and really good sauces (especially mayo). But overal no wow affect if lined up next to other burger places. No special creativity in combination of flavours and the buns are a bit too puffy and not warm enough. Fries are hand cut but unimpressive, especially for Brussel's standards.
Ambient: Mantattn's looks positively industrial and gives that cool hipster underground feeling. Black wall paint, a brick wall, industrial looking lights and of course the hipster bulbs. The waitors are very friendly but staff at the counter seems a bit lost.
Practicalities: They have only two toilets, so if you need to go you better be fast. However, they're quite efficient so you won't wait too long for your food even if there is a cue. However their "pay before eat" system doesn't make you feel very special.
Overall rating: 7.5
