Far From Home Cafe

PrimeTime, T-Bone and I continued our burger adventure yesterday, as well as started the much anticipated "Street Meat Summer 2011".

We went to Love Park and tried Far From Home Cafe. I had the Mighty Big burger, and the Mac and cheese empanadas, PT and TB had the Mighty Jerk burger, with PT also trying the Mexico City empanada.

The Mighty Big Burger had two patties, two slices of cheese, tomato, fried onions, lettuce, pickles and mighty sauce. The Mighty Jerk Burger had jerk spices, provolone, tomato, lettuce, pickles, onions and caribbean ranch mayo. The mighty sauce was great and rivaled that of 500 degrees. The bun was solid and kept the burg together very well. The flavors were excellent and you could pick the individual ingredients. The patties were cooked on the well side, and remained hot to warm throughout eating. The cheese was slightly disappointing.

Overall this was an excellent burger. We all rated the burgers 4*. For me it was slightly below 5 Guys. The service was excellent, very friendly, and farily quick.
