I am determined, in the pre-planning of this holiday, to make sure we’re going to as many restaurants as possible that Alasdair can enjoy. So when former Simpsons head writer turned fast food critic extraordinaire, Bill Oakley, recommends Superiority Burger on his story as being so good he didn’t realise it was vegetarian, well here we go. We are shattered from a long day of eating and sun and the Guggenheim, so we decide to head straight here for an early dinner before crashing in the hotel in the evening (via, with any luck, Milk Bar). Simple, easy, quick. Let’s do this. I think because of the sun, when I see that Pimms is an option, I’m right on it, and only when it arrives do I remember that I’m drinking an American-proof cocktail and hooh boy is that stronger than what I’m used to when I think of a Pimms over here. The burger arrives, and it’s pretty much the platonic ideal of a fast food burger - the patty well-seasoned and slightly crumbly, the muenster cheese melted, the sauce doing its lubricating job. The fries are chunkier than I’ve tended to see in America, and what a relief. Alasdair has a chocolate mousse cake which I’m not ashamed to say I sample, knowing that soon I won’t have to stir from bed ‘til morn.
