What the creator captured
PhatVick, the Wingman🪽 managed to secure one of only twelve burgers served daily by arriving exactly at opening time. While he praised the high-quality meat and unique beer-infused rarebit cheese, he felt the burger lacked freshness due to the absence of lettuce and tomato. He concluded that the meal was a reminder of what a quality non-smash burger tastes like in New York City.
