Wellington Burger, Inc. Brings Burgerfi to Wellington
The All-Natural Angus Beef Gourmet Burgers, Fresh Ingredients and a Super Cool Vibe Restaurant is Now Open
Wellington, FL – June 1, 2015- Burgerfi opened its doors in Wellington last Thursday to hundreds of excited locals who celebrated Burgerfi’s long anticipated grand opening where fresh ingredients are always the star of the show.
The “Cut, Chop, Mix” themed restaurant located on the corner of Wellington Trace and Forest Hill Blvd. ( next to Starbucks) is filled with menu items that are handmade and homemade fresh daily and is styled with environmentally sustainable furniture made from items such as recycled Coca-cola bottles, milk jugs and wood pallets. Burgerfi also features energy-efficient fans and stringent recycling programs.
Burgerfi originated in Delray, Florida when gourmet chefs from five- star kitchens came together and created original recipes for everything from the gourmet Black Angus burger to the super tasty special Burgerfi burger sauce. One could say it’s farthest from fast food and closer to a gastronome’s dream come true.
Burgerfi burgers are made from hormone free, antibiotic free, free -range cattle served several different ways; there is the Breakfast All Day Burger featuring bacon, maple syrup, fried egg, hash brown, grilled onions and ketchup. The Twenty Eight Burger is a double 28 day dry aged ground brisket burger with Swiss and blue cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles and burgerfi sauce. And for those that want to keep it simple, the double Angus Burgerfi Burger and Double Angus Cheeseburger that are both topped with lettuce, tomato and Burgerfi sauce.
For those choosing to enjoy a non-meat meal, there is the Burgerfi Veggie Burger made from lentils, onions grilled in a reduction of thyme and merlot and crispy quinoa all topped with white cheddar, lettuce, tomato with Burgerfi sauce served on a multi-grain bun. And if you are not sure, there is the Conflicted Burger which has both the Veggie Burger and a natural Angus Burger together.
Building on variety that has made them compellingly popular in over 67 locations, the burger menu shares a space beside Kobe style beef, Chicken and Apple and Vienna Beef Dogs. State styled toppings include the New York which is simply kraut and mustard, Texas – chili and cheese with hot sauce or the Chicago topped with mustard, neon-relish, diced onion, tomato, sport peppers, celery salt and a pickle all on a poppy seed bun.
Burgerfi French fry chefs don’t cut any corners either. Burgerfi starts with hand-cut potatoes that are soaked to remove the starch and fried twice to create the ultimate crispiness. And the onion rings are always double battered and cooked to a golden brown. All ingredients are never frozen and offered with a variety of homemade combination toppings like parmesan and herb, Cajun, chili and cheese, salt and vinegar or Urban Style which is parmesan, herb and garlic and Alternative Style; grilled onions, American cheese, mustard and Burgerfi sauce.
Burgerfi offers a selection of draft and bottled craft beers and a wine list that includes Hogue Chardonnay, Robert Mondavi Cabernet Sauvignon and Pinot Grigio and Rex-Goliath Merlot. There are fresh-squeezed lemonades made daily as well as real cane sugar Coca-Cola and Boylan sodas. Guests can also create their own recipe from over 100 selections of flavors in the restaurant’s freestyle Coca-Cola machine.
As for dessert, Burgerfi custards are made from fresh eggs, sugar, and cream and offered with a colorful and flavor filled host of toppings. The special custard formula is churned to eliminate excess air and create extra flavor.
Rounding out the dessert menu, are old-fashioned malted shakes in red velvet, coffee mocha, black and white, peanut butter or simply banana, strawberry, chocolate and vanilla. There are also floats and cows made from custard, custom creative concoctions called “Concretes” and sundaes served with a variety of toppings.
Even though the first Burgerfi was first mapped in February 2011, their restaurants already have an established a reputation for supporting local charities such as American Red Cross, Creatively Caring and many local area PTA/PTO organizations.
Burgerfi is an attraction in the heart of Wellington,” says Village of Wellington councilman John McGovern. “It is a place that will really bring Wellington together.”
