Hump day is another name we use for
Wednesday. For most of us, this is when we start counting down towards the
weekend. Some visit a fancy restaurant and others crawl to a pub at night to
relax and catch up with friends.
At the Carrington Hotel and Beba Y Cene,
Wednesday night is $10 burger night. The fried chicken and slaw burger, lamb
and chilli yoghurt burger, mushroom burger, shark and romesco burger and the occasional
special burger of the night, each for an amazing $10 including a side of chips.
The burgers do not fall short of quality taste too.
I couldn't go pass the pinxtos
(pronounced "pinchos" - mini Spanish bites/snacks on a skewer)
in the menu :

| Paella onigiri with fried calamari (left) and kingfish pastrami on rye (right) |
The paella onigiri with fried calamari ($4.50)
is Chef Jamie's Spanish take on the classic Japanese dish/rice ball snack.
While onigiri is traditionally made with white rice formed into a triangular or
oval shape, here black paella is used. The idea and execution is genius. It
tastes so good, I could eat it all day long. The squid is also cooked
perfectly.
The kingfish pastrami on rye ($4) is an
open sandwich pintxo. It was all kinds of awesome going on in my mouth -
creamy, fresh, and very exquisite.
Now, down to the burgers (with generous
amount of crunchy fries as side).

| Lamb and chilli yoghurt burger |
The lamb and chilli yoghurt burger is
amazesome! The thick juicy lamb burger patty cooked medium well contained in a
nice burger bun. The mild chilli yoghurt sauce adds a nice touch to this
awesome burger.
 |
| Aussie beef burger |
The burger special of the night was the
Aussie beef burger. The burger was monster in size, flavourful and juicy! It
had free range beef patty, egg (with oozing yolk..mmm), double cheese and
beetroot.
