Restaurant: Flip Burger Boutique

Last week we didn't have anything in the fridge, so we headed to Flip Burger Boutique.  While it was busy and the patio had a wait due to the lovely weather, we got a seat right away at the bar.  Let me say that Los Angeles has about a dozen of these "gourmet burger restaurants" (Umami Burger, 8oz, The Counter, Ketchup, Father's Office) so this review is a little biased.  Was the food good?  Yes, but it wasn't mindblowing, I had the Faux-Lafel and the man had the turkey burger - I guess we were trying to be healthy with a side of fried okra.  The okra was done in a way that I had never had it before, strips of okra fried in a tempura batter, very nice.  The atmosphere and decor was trying to hard, to minimal for their minimal menu.  If the atmosphere is not inviting you to stick around then the menu better.  But the drink offerings are spare and the food comes to you on modest plates in modest portions.  The search continues...
