Father’s Office

May 29th, 2009

Last night was particularly gloomy and nothing sounded more satisfying than a trip to Father’s Office.  I’m not talking about your dad’s stuffy den, but arguably the best burger joint in L.A.  They specialize in a signature hamburger (seriously, no substitutions allowed) that’s topped with an onion compote, arugula and infused with Maytag blue cheese.  It’s hard to imagine a better way to start the weekend.

    Don’t think my previous comment went through…
    Those pics make me want to drive there right now. Also, thanks for educating this little LA newbie to restaurants that always look great!

    I haven’t eaten all day; thus, I’m hungry – for both that food and your headband. :)

    You are so stinking cute! How do you stay so thin! Your food posts always make me drool!
    I’m a vegetarian, so it’s just the fries and beer that got me this time…
    You’re the one that made me go after french macroons in San Francisco! :o P

    I’ve yet to find a good burger place here in SF—my favourite in New York was Shake Shack, and nothing seems to compare out here! But THAT looks like a gorgeous burger indeed!

    looks yummy! I’ve never been to Father’s Office but sounds like a must try. though I am so picky, so “no substitutions” doesn’t always work for me! but I’m sure the menu has lots of other delish items…
