The first time Jodi went to Creamline in Chelsea Market, she came back amazed by the veggie burger she had, thinking after the first bite that they made a mistake with her order and not knowing that they were serving the Impossible Burger from Impossible Food, one of the few all vegetarian patty that tastes very close to meat. As they served other types of burgers as well as sandwiches (like fried chicken), I proposed to go back to check it out.
Creamline is a fast casual place; you order at the counter and they will bring your food at your table, thanks to the number assigned to you. Here is what we tried:
The Impossible burger, a 100% plant based that we subsequently tried at Saxon+Parole, a restaurant downtown that has a spectacular version of it. It was good, with a taste very close to meat.
On my side, I opted for their double cheeseburger that had a lot of cheese but was unfortunately slightly overcooked for my taste. I definitely prefer places like Shake Shack for a casual burger place…
With the burgers, we also ordered some French fries that were good, but I prefer them crunchier. I just wished they were proposing onion rings…
So, it was ok: I for sure prefer Shake Shack but they are not yet serving the Impossible Burger there. So, if Jodi wants to go back to Creamline, I will not decline, but would either ask to have the patties cooked medium-rare or try their fried chicken sandwich…
Enjoy (she did)!
