Umami Burger

Return of the burger! After having burgers like four times a week during my burger craze, I felt like I needed a burger detox. But not for long because I heart burgers so much. I tried the Umami original burger tonight. I've had it before but down in Palo Alto and I remember it being completely unmemorable. My friend convinced me that the San Francisco location is way better so I gave it a shot. The burger was not that great. I made a few realizations: real melty cheese is far superior than a parmesan crisp, the texture of mushrooms is weird and I don't want it anywhere near my burger, and that mushy burger patties are the worst. Also, I'm not a fan of the soggy bun and my burger pretty much fell apart halfway through. I'd rather have a Roam or Nopa burger.
