With the cold days approaching, my preferred way of staying warm is chowing down on some delicious burgers! For this one, I headed back to the always tasty Krave Burger. Up until this point I had only tried their beef burgers, but this time I decided to switch it up and go with their Chicken Caprese Burger.
Stats
From the menu: “Juicy slow-roasted chicken, mozza, basil mayo, lettuce, tomato and balsamic vinaigrette”
Appearance (6.75/10)
One thing I like about Krave’s burgers is how clean-cut and simple they look, and this burger was no exception. The burger was packed full of slow-roasted chicken, and the basil mayo and vinaigrette were already dripping out the sides.
My one concern, which tends to always be the case when I first see my burger here, is that it’s not quite going to be enough to satisfy my hunger. Although, usually I am proved wrong before my tray is even empty.
Taste (7.25/10)
The chicken in this burger was great! It wasn’t at all dry, and it had some really tasty flavours. I’m the kind of guy that likes a good amount of sauce on his burgers and this one did not disappoint. There was a generous amount of the balsamic vinaigrette, and even though it did make the burger slightly messy, it was worth it. I also enjoyed the basil mayo as it was the perfect companion for the chicken.
If you have read my other posts for Krave, you know that I love the buns they use. The simple task of buttering and toasting the bun gives it both a great texture and taste.
Cost vs. What You Get (8.25/10)
For this burger, it will cost you $7.99, plus $3.49 if you want to make it a combo, which I’d recommend doing. Getting this burger, with fries and a drink, for around $12 is a great deal. The quality of both the service and the food really shows at Krave, so you can’t complain about the cost.
Overall (7.42/10)
Krave continues to impress me with their burgers. They do their beef burgers right, and if I had to choose, I would probably take one of those over this burger. That being said, this burger was a good time, and it is a very solid choice for any visitors that may want a non-red meat option to choose. I’m already looking forward to my next visit to Krave, so that should tell you something!
