Plan B customers, Justin North has fulfilled your burger needs by creating a burger menu catered for those with various likes and tastes (including vegetarians). For those who have never been to Plan B, it’s a small hole in the wall which sold burgers and of course their awesome banana custard tart (see my previous write-up).

With the amount of exposure and attention his burgers were receiving, it was obvious to him that burgers were something which weren’t done propperly and a high potential for good high quality burgers was to be found.. which lead him to his latest establishment – Charlie & Co. Burgers.

Price tells all that this is no ordinary burger (Burgers are not your average price which cost $10-$18). To set the record straight these burgers are made with premium quality meat and as Justin explains over bubbles and Parmesan truffle chips, its not any kind of meat mashed into a patty.

In this case the most popular burgers are the Wagyu Burger which is my ultimate favourite (pickled gherkin, beetroot relish, aged cheddar on fresh brioche bread which is made daily). Other favourites are the Federation Burger (Angus beef, fried egg, sauteed onions, aged cheddar, bacon, iceberg lettuce and tomato on a sesame sourdough bun) which i’m still yet to try.

This is his original burger, which most of you would have noticed when going to various sydney food events like Taste of Sydney / Winter Festival etc. This is one you must try if you’ve never had one of his original burgers before. During the westfield opening up to 600 burgers were sold! OMGGGGG!!!

Parmesan & truffle fries
The fragrance of the truffle makes me want to smear my face into it. Perfect combination to have a side with your burger. Fancy chips at it’s best! Chips were a huge sell out. Up to 120kilos of chips were fried, sold and eaten by consumers! That’s gotta say something about the chips!

Charlie who? How Charlie & Co. Burgers got it’s name..
wiki: Born in Wisconsin, at 15 Nagreen was a vendor at the 1885 Seymour Fair. After not experiencing success selling meatballs, he had an idea. Knowing that the visitors to the fair would be hungry after gazing at the exhibits but wouldn’t be able to walk and eat, he smashed a meatball and placed it between two slices of bread. The name of the Hamburger came from the idea of “Hamburg steak”, or ground beef. Since this was a popular item in Seymour at the time of the 1885 fair, Nagreen decided to call the sandwich the “Hamburger”.
