I know what The Banburian and I will be having for lunch tomorrow!

Given that the Banbury burger scene is pretty darned amazing, it may interest some of you to know that the calendar tells me that today is Cheeseburger Day.

Now, I am partial to a bacon cheeseburger myself. And there is a standing difference of opinion in our house on the role of pickles in the burger experience (I am anti-pickle, he is pro-pickle). But the joy of cheeseburgers - and indeed, burgers more generally - is that they are absolutely, easily customisable.

What are your toppings of choice and where - among the burger choices that Banbury offers - do you go to get your burgers?
