The Melt has three new burgers. I tried them all. Here is the second one, the BBQ Bacon Melt.
FIGat7th is an interesting addition to the atmosphere of DTLA. It is not like a traditional shopping center. It is more hip and vibrant. While you can shop and get household items, you can also have fun, listen to live music, enjoy a meal, have a date, or a combination of all these things.
The Melt at FIGat7th is inside their Taste Food Hall, and adds variety to the list of options there. On this episode of The Burger Crawl, I try the BBQ Bacon Melt. The Melt got its start making delicious grilled cheese sandwiches. They take the concept of grilling cheese directly onto bread, and apply it to a potato bun burger. Their concept is simple, perfectly-sized for the average person, and truly a treat.
The BBQ Bacon Melt has aged beef, cheddar, jalapeños, grilled onions and barbecue sauce, with the bacon criss-crossed on top like a little turtle. The cheese melted right onto the plastic.
The barbecue sauce is the dominant flavor. I got a hint of onion and not much else. Last week the Original was all meat, and you could taste the patty. This time the sauce overpowers the beef, and I couldn’t taste the patty much. It’s messy, which I appreciate, and it’s a good burger. It’s just a barbecue sauce burger.
