Kermonds' Burgers

It has become quite a routine for me on Fridays after school to head to Mickey Bourke's pub in Koroit for a drink with the staff. We usually leave about five. On the way home I go to Kermonds, the best burgers in Australia. They have even made it to the worlds top ten, at number nine. if you don't believe me check out this link:

They are delicious. If you don't believe me check out this review:

Warrnambool is famous for three things: whaling, whale watching and Kermond’s hamburgers. And back in 1949 when Kermond’s first opened shop, you could legally indulge in all three at the same time.

Kermond’s is less a burger joint and more a Victorian cult icon. The sign on their retro wood-panelled wall says it all: “Customers purchasing hamburgers for re-heating should request cold buns.” Rumour has it that more than one Melbournite has made the three-and-a-half hour drive to the 'Bool’ just so they could stock up their freezer with Warrnambool’s finest. Maybe they just do things differently out there, or maybe Kermond’s pre-dates the introduction of leafy vegetables to Australia, but a standard ‘lot’ contains nothing green and no cheese. However a simple request for these little essentials will be cheerfully accommodated, resulting in a superlative example how a burger should be.

Thick, juicy, gently fried tomato is offset by a crunchy-edged patty with the onion cooked in. The egg is soft but not runny and the bacon is thoughtfully pre-cut for your convenience. Kermond’s is a must-visit for any hungry whale-watching burger fan.
