Interesting, thanks for the heads-up.

On the topic of burgers, I finally tried the much-hyped Dragon's Lair in Westbrook Mall. I'm not sure exactly what I was expecting, but it was extremely disappointing. The meat was spongey and tasteless, the toppings were ungenerous and the bun was one of those horrendous Delisio (sp?) crap things that I wouldn't feed to my dog (saw the bun package long after the order was placed and paid for)... And speaking of paid for - it was $55 for two "dragon" burgers, a regular poutine and two drinks (including tip, though after the fact, I can't get the price to pencil unless the fountain drink & water bottles are ~$4 each)... Which is absurd considering that's the same price of a high-quality sit down lunch we had the day before.

Has anyone had a better experience that would convince me to give them another try, perhaps with one of their more conventional burgers?

Edit - and the poutine sucked.

I just looked at the Burger Quest review and it sounds like my disappointment matched theirs... No second chances. https://theyyscene.com/2018/09/12/kn...l-meaty-beast/
