The Muddy Pig on Dale and Selby is quite possibly the best burger in town. From the outside, this friendly little piggy's sty is quite small but once in the place takes up more than it appears. The Muddy Pig has some 45+ beers on tap and who cares how many in cans in bottles collecting dust alongside their great whiskey selection. Enough about the hooch, lets talk burgers.
As usual I got my BCB. A large 1/2 pound burger made to order on a great bun. I went for broke hoping that a place with such a fine name would be able make a burger that was actually to code. My thoughts were right, even though they have humus on the menu, the thick burger came out a nice rich pink center that turned the bun a nice ruddy hue. The bacon was just crispy enough not to pull out in one piece but had my taste buds screaming for more. The only problem for me is that they do not do french fries, even though they had the Tour de France on the telly, no french fries! The chips were great and crunchy, but still not a fry!
The staff at the Muddy Pig are great, they helped my date, Mom, go from her typical Bud Light, to a nice German Lager that she actually claims to have liked and can back it up with an empty glass that is no sitting in her back seat. Deputy Mac, don't put her in your back seat, she did pay for it! I had my absolute favorite, a nice little Belgian brew Pauwel Kwak, a nice strong malty red ale that comes in at a hearty 11.5%.
I really enjoy the Muddy Pig, it reminds me of the bistros in Belgium again without the the FRIES!!!! Its clean, fast, friendly and a very knowledgeable staff. It would be a great local if it was local to me. In fact as we were leaving I ran into a good rugby buddy as he was coming in.
My hats off to you Muddy Pig! www.muddypig.com
