Lunchbox Laboratory, part II

I just made a return trip to Lunchbox Laboratory - this time I brought my Dad.

He's a "basic" burger guy, no bacon, raw onions, etc. Here's his "custom" burger:














Louie got something called "The Smoker", which included a 1/2-inch stack of smoked bacon and havarti cheese:


Of course, Louie failed and couldn't finish his. But he gets to enjoy it later...

I got the "Homage to Dick's Deluxe", which didn't disappoint:



I think this place is fantastic. I wish they had a Los Angeles location. Until then, I get my once-or-twice-a-year fix here in Seattle.

Lunchbox Laboratory

I had read about a place called "Lunchbox Laboratory" in Seattle, WA. I saw pictures of their "dork" (duck & pork) burger, and their "super beef" burgers, loaded with real cheese, thick smoked bacon and plenty of greasy goodness. I knew I had to try their work. I was already planning to visit Bellevue, WA, and decided my trip must inclide a visit to Lunchbox Laboratory.

Below is a record of what was consumed.

Above is the "Homage to Dick's". Apparently Dick's is a local burger joint that sells tasty but crappy burgers. This was clearly tasty but nowhere near crappy. On the side are some lovely tater tots.

Here's the "Dork" (duck & pork) burger, onion fries on the side:


The place is very tiny, barely enough room for 15-20 people to eat at any given time. Below is a short clip showing the entire extent of the "dining room", which includes the line to order food.



The prices weren't cheap - about $60 for three burgers, fries and sodas. Once I ate there, the price could've been double. I wouldn't have cared - it's that good. Overall, I knew this would be an exercise in excess. I was correct. I'm still recovering. I regret nothing.
