This is an ultimate burger with “the works”, all in one plate. You have to spoil yourself occasionally-)) The burger nicely pairs with sherry.
Our choice of sherry was “Emperatriz Eugenia Oloroso” by Lustau. This intense dry wine compliments festive mood very well. The combination of comfort food and good wine often stimulates sentimental feelings, especially on Friday during family dinner.
