Spirit of 77’s Fried Fish Fillet is one of the few non-burger burgers in this year’s Burger Week lineup. For real, why do you people eat cows when there are so many delicious cod out there, just waiting to be caught, breaded, deep-fried, and tucked in a huge, fluffy sesame seed bun? And then get hit with a slice of American cheese? And then slathered with so much tartar sauce that when it arrives, you’re like, “Dang, that’s too much tartar sauce!” but then you start eating and realize, “No, it’s a deliciously appropriate fuckton of tartar sauce”?! If you want a red meat break this Burger Week, but still want to gorge yourself on something with a bun, Spirit of 77 has got you covered. You might even find that this crispy fish burger knocks the beef out of the water. ELINOR JONES
