I guess by now we've established that i like burgers
I'd like to think that when it comes to London burger bars, i've got it covered but seeing as I spend a lot of my time in Liverpool I was a bit lost. I needed to find somewhere to get a big juicy, chin dribbling burger whilst in Scousey-land - and now I think I've found it in Almost Famous.
In the same vain as MeatLiquor, this place does big, bold burgers with all the cheese and hot sauce you can handle.
Once seated, your waiter essentially tells you to do everything yourself. You order food & drinks at the bar, grab your own sauces and plenty of kitchen towel and wait hungrily as they bring over your food, taking in the quirky decor surrounding you....
In terms of the actual burgers, they don't disappoint. I went for the suicide burger...
Beef patty, cheese, suicide hot sauce, blue cheese sauce, fresh chillis and lettuce. It's a two-handed job of hot, messy (thank god for the kitchen roll) burger brillance. Equally it would work perfectly as a chicken burger (hint, hint....)
Never one to shy away from a challenge Tom took on the evening's 'special', the 'Triple Threat'. A gut-busting ensemble of three beef patties, bacon, cheese, onions....just look at the thing. Afraid of dislocating his jaw, he attacked it with a knife and fork - but report amazing as it was eating a burger with cutlery really took the fun out of it
As are the Suicide 'crack' wings - these things must be marinated in suicide sauce for hours because they are HOT.
Make the most of the blue cheese dipping sauc, I like hot wings but these are like eating lava...

Chilli cheese fries are almost perfect. A combo of sweet potato and regular french fries slathered in smokey beef chilli, jalopeno relish and cheese. So so good (ignoring the fact for my waistline they are incredibly bad!)
