Today, we were in Findlay and decided to stop downtown at Legends. Legends is a quaint pub that is proud of its Findlay athletes. The decor features blown up newspaper articles from different sporting events.
The #gastromelt is an open faced cheeseburger served with sauteed onions, a fried cheese slice, and super secret sauce.
The bun is typically a mayo toasted marble rye. I, however, do not like rye bread. I swapped it out for toasted sour dough. The sour dough was toasted nicely and was not oversized compared to the size of the burger. It complimented the burger well and was an excellent substitute.
The burger is an 8 ounce prime beef patty. It cut easily with a fork. The burger had a lovely charring on the outside but was still soft on the inside. I ordered my burger medium rare. Unfortunately, it came out borderline well done. This was easily forgotten due to flavor of the burger and the juiciness of the burger. I thought that the Patty was the perfect thickness as well. Not too think, but not so thick that all you tasted was burger.
The toppings made this burger. I want a large bottle of the Super Secret Sauce and I want to put it on everything. I decided to eat the sauce first to see if I liked the flavor. It was at first sweet like honey, then moved to almost a tangy mustard taste and finished with a burn in the back of the throat. A very mild burn but full of flavor. The onions were nicely sauteed and balance the sauce nicely. I would have liked the fried cheese slice to have been thicker. You couldn't taste much of the cheese flavor, but the breading on the cheese was well seasoned. It was unfortunate how much of the oil stayed in the breading of the cheese. I think that is why the cheese flavor was lost.
I will definitely be back to Legends for this burger again. I believe I will be craving this burger in the future.
