Where to Eat - 4505 Meats

Once in awhile I get to have lunch out with my work bestie the lovely Linda. We usually don't get to get out much for lunch due to our busy schedules and it's always nice to get some fresh air, sunshine and good eats.

I've been singing the praises of 4505 Meats since she started back in October. They have my favorite cheeseburger in the city. It's simple, delicious, and uses quality ingredients. A lot of places use their meat products, which are amazing, but for me the ultimate experience is getting their burger at their stand at the Farmer's Market at the Ferry Building. (PS - They take cards!)

The burger has a grass fed, dry aged, beef from Magruder Ranch on a house made scallion and sesame bun. It's dressed simply with gruyere, lettuce and a secret sauce. They also have a myriad of condiments to add including ketchup, mustard, hot sauce, onions, sauerkraut and relish. I love these cheeseburgers - period.

We also decided to split their chimichurri fries. What is a burger without fries - even if you have to buy them separately (darn you SF!) These fries were delicious. Topped with red chimichurri sauce and a parsley aioli,  they have a great kick that is cooled by the mayo. One of these days I need to try another sandwich.
