My first thought after taking a bite of this burger was just... confusion. Not in a bad way - I just had no frame of reference for it.

The best way to think about this burger is not as a burger but as chocolate cake with beef and bacon. And yes, I know, I know. You're no doubt thinking I've lost my mind. I understand. But hear me out.

The pistachio creme strongly invites a comparisons to a chocolate bar. It gives the burger an incredibly rich and sweet flavor. The chopped pistachios add some nice texture. And the cheese - Emmentaler, I'm told - adds even more richness.

Overall, all these ingredients almost make the burger feel a bit too heavy, flavor-wise. But I'm reluctant to lean into this criticism because... how would you even fix it? Which veggies pair well with pistachio creme? Fuck if I know.

Bottom line, it's not for everyone nor is it something I could eat frequently. But it's a really interesting creation. You should try it.
