Each night, Craigie on Main serves less than twenty of their off-menu burgers, which are made from a custom blend of three different cuts of meat, beef bone marrow and suet.
The sticky buns are AMAZING--probably the best I've ever had. The dough is soft and moist instead of the usual hard and dry & the flavor is sweet without being sickening.
