National Cheeseburger Day: The Big Grid
If you’re old enough, you’ll be lucky enough to remember, the late, great, GRIDDLES. The crown of Strand Street in the 1990’s. So many happy memories for me and for the Mongoose team. Birthday parties, first trips to town. The weird pictures on the wall and those tin foil ashtrays. SOBIn my eyes, Griddles was home to the first hipster burger. While the rest of the Western world were flocking to line the pockets of the corporate giants, Griddles stood firm, doing its own thing (well, sort of). In homage to our nation’s favourite ‘fast food joint’, we’ve recreated the Griddles signature dish. The one, the only, BIG GRID.Watch the video and follow the simple recipe to relive the glory days, and don’t forget to shop local kids!
