On August 30, Canadian chain South St. Burger Co. turned 10.  Most 10 year olds born in August celebrate their birthday with something obvious like a pool party, but always ahead of the curve, South St. Burger celebrated theirs by unveiling a “Not-So-Secret” Menu.

Disclosure: I have received coupons to share this post. The opinions on this blog are my own.

The South St. Burger Secret Menu was inspired by fan photos showing the inventive ways customers order and top their burgers. The four new and delicious unofficial menu items are:

• The South St. Chicken Club – a traditional club sandwich with grilled chicken breast, bacon, cheese, tomatoes, lettuce and garlic mayo.

• Mac’s (Big) Burger – 2 4oz patties, 2 slices of cheese, lettuce, pickles, onions, and South St. signature sauce.  Named after founder Jay Gould’s son Mac who always orders his burger this way.

• The Cheesy Vegetarian – a veggie burger with cheese.  Brie pairs heavenly with it!

• The Naughty Vegetarian – a veggie burger with bacon!  Oh yes, we went there!

About South St. Burger:

Since its 2005 opening of the first South St. Burger Co. in Toronto, I was hooked. Specializing in fresh, 100% pure beef burgers; this quick service restaurant serves premium food in a contemporary, New York style loft-like environment. South St. Burger Co.’s menu features fresh, never frozen, 1/3 lb, 100% pure beef burgers, grilled chicken breasts and veggie burgers. Sides include hand-cut New York Fries french fries and poutine, hand-made onion rings and real, hand-scooped ice cream milkshakes. The onion rings, like the fries, are also hand-cut and cooked in nonhydrogenated, Trans Fat Free Sunflower oil.  A variety of condiments allow customers to personalize their orders at no extra charge. A selection of cheeses are also be on the menu.
