Description
Lunchbox Laboratory is a messy place. Kitsch, including a collection of namesake metal lunch boxes, covers nearly every surface. In this South Lake Union eatery, picking a burger type, a sauce, the cheese, the sides, and a shake often induces an overstimulated pause in one's decision-making abilities. "Just give me your version of a Dick's burger," a fellow eater recently requested, "with Swiss." The burgers spill over themselves, oozing melted cheese and one of a number of house sauces. Ranging from quarter-pound beef patties to half-pounders of dork (duck and pork), the burger options also include a house-made bean patty; condiments run the gamut from a Thousand Island-style sauce to more refined options like truffle aioli. To try all the possible burger permutations seems like a mathematical impossibility, except for the very, very dedicated. As for the adult milkshakes—well, they deserve a special shake-only trip. As for the sides, try the mac and cheese.
