Dilallo Burger Part 2 (11:39); (MP3 15MB / FLAC 64MB / Ogg Vorbis 9MB / Stream)
Chris and Ed meet Toby, one of the bosses at the Burgundy Lion Pub, where they were warming up before heading across the street to Dilallo Burger at 2523 rue Notre-Dame Ouest in Saint Henri. Toby tells us about the Burgundy Lion's burger, he thinks it is one of the best burgers in Montreal, which sounds so good it almost derailed the mission.
But no! Across the street they went, into the bright yellow world of Dilallo Burger. Ed skims over the menu, where he finds they do indeed sell more than burgers (but not much more).
Tension builds, and after much deliberation, orders are placed...

Montreal Burger Report: Dilallo Burger Part 1
Howdy!
Dilallo Burger Part 1 (11:42); (MP3 16MB / FLAC 127MB / Ogg Vorbis 10MB / Stream)
Dil-I-lo? Dil-AL-o? De-LIGH-la?
The full name of Dilallo Burger is Dilallo Burger Original 1929, which tells us that these burgers have been around since the first big stock market crash. (It's no coincidence that in these hard economic times, burgers get the best and biggest buzz in online food talk.)
The original restaurant is long gone, but the outlet in Verdun at 2851 rue Allard (near Monk) is within a few blocks of it, and is thus the most storied. Unfortunately, Verdun is not exactly known for its pub life, so Chris "Zeke" Hand and Ed "Blork" Hawco opted for the location at 2523 rue Notre-Dame Ouest, in Saint Henri, which is conveniently right across the street from the Burgundy Lion pub.
Listen in as Chris and Ed knock back a few cool ones at the Burgundy Lion in preparation for their visit to Dilallo Burger. Ed was a Dilallo virgin whereas Chris was an old hand, so to speak -- although it had been quite a while since he had been to a Dilallo Burger.
There are currently six Dilallo Burger outlets:
All of which are not to be confused with either Chez di Lalla at 345 Villeray E or Restaurant da Lillo, 615 rue Jarry E.

Montreal Burger Report: Méchant Boeuf Bar & Brasserie Part 1
Howdy!
Méchant Boeuf Bar & Brasserie Part 1 (11:58); (MP3 18MB / FLAC 65MB / Ogg Vorbis 11MB / Stream)
If you ride the Metro in Montreal you've probably seen the big ads that declare Méchant Boeuf's burger as the "best burger in town." Easily provoked, Chris 'Zeke' Hand and Ed 'Blork' Hawco decided to visit Méchant Boeuf and find out for themselves.

But first, a few beers were in order. Listen in as Ed and Chris discuss Méchant Boeuf and their expectations while knocking back a few cool ones at L'Orignal on rue Saint-Alexis in Old Montreal.
