Burger

2014 Winner: Craigie on Main

In an utterly done-to-death category, the bar at Tony Maws’ celebrated nose-to-tail bistro still serves the ne plus ultra of local burgers. Its magic is based on an exquisite, umami-packed beef blend (including marrow, suet and dehydrated miso powder) and an unusual preparation (steamed in a CVap oven, charred on a plancha). Line up early before the daily ration runs out, and go in late summer, the only time of year when local tomatoes are good enough to be included.
