It’s not often a fast food gimmick actually works for me as anything more than that: a fun one-off I never need to try again. Calling myself a connoisseur feels pretentious, but I do make regular trips to any fast food establishment for any new goofball menu offering, so I can comfortably say I’ve had a wide range of offerings. That said, I was impressed with the new Big Arch burger, even for someone with such a limited palette. For starters, opening the lid to see a dual sesame and poppy seed bun was a very pleasant surprise. I appreciated the gooey over-serving of cheese surrounding both patties, which was even tastier in conjunction with the sauce. But the best addition was the combination of raw and fried onions, above and below the meat, respectively. If I had one request, it would be for a pop of fresh tomato. It is decidedly too much food to function as my daily driver of a sandwich, but as an occasional purchase and competitor with the Big Mac, this burger deserves a place in the regular menu, or at least a rotating treat.
