Sunny’s Hamburger
Sunny’s Hamburger
7003 Ogden Road S.E.
Burger : Jumbo mushroom burger ($6.35 for a combo including fries and a drink).
Two patties covered in a mushroom and onion sauce on a plain bun.
Sides : Krinkle-cut fries. Poutine is also available.
Atmosphere : A converted house in Ogden the walls of the main floor are green and yellow and it’s furnished with mismatched chairs and square brown tables.
There are some tiny framed art pieces on the walls a giant photo of what I think is the Brooklyn Bridge and a dresser topped up with potted plants. It’s not fancy but it’s comfortable.
Menu : Breakfast burgers chicken fingers and teriyaki chicken or beef sums it all up.
Decision : Of all the mom-and-pop places I’ve been to this might be my favourite. I can’t give it a complete pass because the patties were preformed but the balance of the offerings was good. I was terrified that the mushroom burger would be coated in Campbell’s mushroom soup but thankfully that wasn’t the case. The sauce had real mushrooms grilled onions and a well-balanced flavour.
The burger was super sloppy and I ended up finishing most of it by fork (think Sloppy Joe sloppy). The fish burger and chicken fingers were both above average and cooked to a perfect crisp. But for under $7 including fries a drink and taxes I can’t see any reason why you wouldn’t order a burger at Sunny’s.
Next Up : Bubba Louie’s Burger Bus 3rd St. and 53rd Ave. S.E.
