Last week, I finally made my second trip to Village Whiskey. During my first visit to Village Whiskey, I unfortunately didn’t get to try the duck fat fries and the Whiskey King burger.
I was having a pretty awful day…so in an attempt to feel better, I indulged in the duck fat fries and the Whiskey King burger (pictured above).
duck fat fries
The fries were tasty with a good crispness to them. I didn’t dare bother dipping them in the ketchup as I find ketchup and fries together to be a sin, unless they’re really subpar fries that only ketchup can save.
The burger I got the last time was fantastic, but this one just completely blew that one out of the water. Can there possibly be more flavor than the burger I ordered last time? Yes, yes there can. Everything was delish…the beef, foie gras, the sharpness of the bleu cheese, sweetness of the cipollinis…ahhh foodgasm. You honestly have to try this. It’s a little steep at the price of $26, but if you’ve never tried it, it’s worth the investment!
Post meal I was in a food coma for maybe almost 2 hours…but ohhh was it worth it…

I don't do foie, but everything else about that burger sounds on-point. I am dying to try the duck fat fries with Sly Fox cheddar and short ribs sauce.
No ketchup, though? Now THAT'S a sin! Condiment of the gods!
i like ketchup. i have no probs with it. just not on fries/burgers.
hmm…what do i like ketchup on then?….
bridge. I loved the burger, but mine priced out at $17 with the foie gras. I did, the Philly Burger Warz, and found the $5.25 burger from 500 Degrees to be as good as, if not better than this $17 burger. PS. I could put foie gras on a sub from subway and it would make it taste amazing. I love, love, love Jose Garces and the burger was bangin' but I love the challenge of finding something amazing at a great price!
hmm, i haven't tried 500° yet…definitely on the to do list though! foie gras…so good.
