B-Rex Attack!

Sometimes, I get a burger craving that I just can't shift...

This is usually problematic, as I rarely find a burger joint where they serve something that isn't full of gristle or completely tasteless. I had heard good things going around about Byron; originally a London chain but with a little set up in Bluewater, Kent. 

We drove up this morning for my boyfriend's birthday to spend a couple of days with my parents and after not eating all day, I was positively yearning for a big, meaty burger. 

Then I was attacked by a Byronasaurus Rex! 

A beautiful, meaty tower structured from a 6oz patty, American cheese, an onion ring, pickles, jalapeños, mayonnaise, bacon and sliced white onion. (It also usually comes with BBQ sauce, but I'm not a fan so opted out). 

We sat in a booth, surrounded by Byron's funky, factory like decor, eagerly awaiting the arrival of our burgers. 

I just couldn't wait!

We both couldn't resist the pull of the B-Rex, each accompanied by a hefty bowl of fries. 

Corrr, how can you resist that?!

The first bite was pure heaven.

It was one of the best burgers I've ever tasted. No gristle to be seen! Byron also cook all their burgers medium (unless you ask otherwise, so be warned!) which is perfect for me. All the flavours worked together brilliantly; the crunch from the onion ring, the spice from the jalapeños, all bound together by the thick, melting cheese. 

Did it pass the test? 

I think so!

As it was me, I also couldn't resist dessert. I had the Banoffee Mess; a mixture of cream, bananas, toffee sauce and biscuit in an immense sundae dish. 

I do not regret eating the whole lot.

The B-Rex will only be roaring until the 28th April, so head on down to Byron to see if you can eat it a bit more gracefully than me!
