Rustic Root, Gaslamp
What you’re getting: RR Burger
Topped with bacon jam, a fried egg, aged cheddar, caramelized onions, and mustard aioli, Chef Anthony Friscia’s RR Burger is a messy beast. Rightfully, the towering burger is served with a pile of seasoned fries and an absorbent cloth napkin, which you will need almost immediately. The $18 price tag is a bit steep, but there’s no way you’re leaving hungry if you manage to clear your plate.
