burgerlab, parkdale

31 Mar

Crank those Bunsen burners and prep those test tubes because Mamma’s been on the hunt for delicious burgers… for the sake of science.

At the end of Parkdale’s main strip of restaurants is the family friendly Burgerlab. On a beautiful day, take a seat in their front beer garden or escape from the elements and find a table inside where there is a small television playing cartoons (which is not visible from all tables if avoiding screen time).

With a varied menu, burgers include fried chicken, spicy, vegetarian and seafood. Mamma couldn’t go past the house special - Burgerlab’s take on a traditional cheeseburger with Raclette cheese *drool*.

If burgers aren’t your thing, there are plenty of other items on the menu - from lamb chops and chicken wings to burrito bowls and grilled salmon.

Their kids menu also offers a variety of dishes. Mamma’s two year old loved the kid’s chicken popcorn and chips which came in its own container for easy leftover transport home.

The added bonus of Burgerlab’s location is the Parkdale skyrail directly opposite which filled a certain little trainiac with pure joy every time a train went by.
