The chef’s choice burger is an idea from chef/owner Peter Smith of PS 7 in Washington, DC. The burger is served with a fried farm-fresh organic egg, Gruyere, house-smoked bacon and heirloom tomatoes on a brioche bun. On the menu at PS 7 is the rich lobster hash with sunchokes, fried quail egg, pearl onions and rosemary Hollandaise sauce.
