Premium Wagyu burgers inspired by the world's classic flavors...and you can find it all here at Village Tavern.
Village Tavern introduces its World of Burgers, a premium Wagyu burger selection created by Chef Josh Boutwood. Each premium burger is infused with the best of the world's iconic flavors taking your burger dining experience to a whole new level...at Village Tavern.
Village Tavern offers some of the best flavors in the metro, with its wide range of elegant yet comforting dishes, and Chef Josh Boutwood doesn't disappoint with his new line of premium Wagyu burgers (for more on Village Tavern's creative burger creations, see my previous post here, and more on Chef Josh Boutwood's signature dishes at Village Tavern on my earlier post here). I start my feast at Village Tavern with their new Devilled Eggs (P 195), with freshly boiled eggs filled with creamy and spicy egg yolk topped with strips of Cured Lamb Belly. The richness of the eggs are punctuated by the sharp, spicy yet creamy egg yolk, completed by the bold and savory notes of the cured lamb belly. Almost like bacon or prosciutto, with its mildly salty and smoky notes with just a hint of the lamb's subtle yet distinct flavor, the cured lamb belly weaves layers of rich flavors to the Devilled Eggs. It's a great starter, setting you up perfectly for the new premium Wagyu burgers...
Chef Josh Boutwood's new line of premium Wagyu burgers include The Octoberfest (P 675), a Bavarian-inspired burger with braised red onions, Swiss Cheese, and a rich and flavorful beer mustard sauce; The Mexican (P 650), bringing south of the border notes topped with queso and chili; The Waldorf (P 625), Chef Josh Boutwood's take on the classic New York salad with the juicy Wagyu beef patty topped with fresh apples, celery, walnuts, and St. Nectaire cheese; and The Monte Carlo (P 695), infused with the fresh and tart notes of the French Riviera.
I go for The Monte Carlo, a premium juicy Wagyu beef patty inspired by the sunny and vibrant flavors of the French Riviera, elegantly draped with St. Nectaire cheese, white onions, tart and flavorful black olive tapenade, and topped with the distinct notes of Prosciutto laid on a bed of crisp arugula and spinach on a soft brioche bun. Each component just adds its own layer of flavor to the well-constructed burger, so open wide and go for one big bite...
The buttered brioche buns are pillow soft, with a light and crisp layer on the seared side, remaining firm all throughout until the last bite. The premium Wagyu beef patty is juicy and savory, yet firm and retaining its form all the way. Unlike the usual burgers, both the bun and the beef patty remain firm and intact, without crumbling. One bite releases the rich beefy notes from the juicy Wagyu beef patty, followed by the creamy and mildly nutty flavor of the St. Nectaire cheese from the Auvergne region of central France, the subtle sharpness of the crisp and fresh white onion, the smoky flavor of the soft and melt-in-your-mouth prosciutto, and the tart notes of the black olive tapenade tempering the richness of the Wagyu beef patty. The fresh arugula and spinach at the bottom completes the flavors with its mildly bitter hint for a unique burger experience.
Bold flavors with each and every bite, The Monte Carlo elevates the burger experience to whole new level. And Chef Josh Boutwood does it again, with his flavorful line of premium Wagyu burgers with a global spin at Village Tavern. Can't wait to try The Octoberfest next. Or The Waldorf. Or The Mexican...
