There is a new meat market in town.
Well, a new cooked meat market. A burger bar.
There have long been hamburger joints in Melaque. But this is a new concept.
The owner, long-time resident Harvey, has combined good food with a great location.
The restaurant is located where Cesar and Charley's once did business -- next to the Hotel Monterey. But more importantly, the view takes in the full bay.
Most restaurants with a good view have little more to offer. But Harvey's has great food.
Here is the concept. You can build your own burger.
First, start with a 100% sirloin patty, a grilled chicken breast, fish, or a vegan burger. A nice selection.
Second, add some traditional or not-so-traditional vegetable toppings -- the "healthy" refuge of we burger eaters.
Third, spread on some sauces. From honey mustard to tartar.
And, of course, french fries or sweet potato fries.
I ate there twice -- trying the sirloin and the chicken breast. Both were extremely good. And the secret is that all of the ingredients were top rate.
Better than that, though, it is a great place to meet new people. You can heard Anne Murray warbling in the distance. The snowbirds have started to arrive and this appears to be a new roost for them. And a good roost it is.
Good view. Good food. Good company.
Who could ask for anything more?
