The Limited Edition Raclette Burger from Crepaway
Georges seated us at a table along the glass railing, overlooking the hustle and bustle of the mall, and proceeded to hand us the large Crepaway menus. “We’re here for the Raclette burgers,” I announced, gently declining the menu and requesting a Perrier. “Ok, I’ll be right back with your order,” replied Georges, peering at me intently before inquiring whether we were bloggers. “Uh, yes,” I conceded. “I’m Beirutista.” “Ooh, so does that mean I’ll be featured on your blog?” The burgers, dear boy! Within a scant few minutes, and I do mean minutes, two runners arrived with salvers balancing open-faced burgers. Supple, poppy-seed bun slathered with a lick of special sauce. Grilled Angus beef patty. Pan-fried hash brown. Crisp lettuce. Juicy tomato. And the pièce de résistance: a thick sheet of molten Raclette cheese slowly sliding off a metal tray and onto the beef.
