When Meal Ticket chatted with Bobby Flay at his brand-new Bobby's Burger Palace (3925 Walnut St.) yesterday, we asked him if he's scoped out any of the many tasty burgers Philly has to offer. He said he that he didn't, on purpose. His full answer from our Q&A, which you can check out in print this week:
Have you had experience with other Philadelphia burgers? There are a lot of signature burgers here in the city.
I haven't, and I've done that purposely. There's lot of great burgers out there the one thing I don't want to be is influenced by anyone else's stuff. There are particular things about the burgers that we do here that are important to me, and I think that they are successful in getting people to crave them. That's really important. ... I only want to be our burger. I don't want to be influenced by something I really like, you know what I mean?
Looks like the Iron Chef might've have a change of heart according to Nishon Yagoobhian of Wild Flour Bakery and a handful of other Philly Twitterati, Flay just took in a burger at Rob and Maggie Wasserman's 500º (1504 Sansom St.), for which Wild Flour bakes the buns.
