if there is a burger place i love just as much as my favorite father's office,
it has to be the umami burger
which one do i love more? it's really a tough question because i love them both dearly!
so what does "umami" mean?
umami is a japanese word describing the pleasant and savory taste imparted by glutamate, a type of amino acid and ribonucleotides that occur naturally in foods
umami as a taste is subtle but it blends with other tastes well to expand your experience while eating

so here it goes with mouthwatering gourmet burger!
so far i only checked out three of their locations & noticed that each has their own unique decor-
since each location not only has unique decors but unique menus & only some have full bars, you might want to do your research before checking out a place-
also, if it helps, la brea location has the tablet pc which you can play with if you get bored with..well, your 'date' ;)
