The word “homemade” gets used for everything, including a burger that came out of a box. So let us be precise: at Les Variétés the burger is cooked on the premises, in the kitchen of a brasserie open since 1902 at 33 boulevard du Maréchal Foch, and it has a name because it has a composition.
The Street Art Burger
A double two-hundred-gram patty, melting cheddar, black seeded bun. It is a piece that holds together: the quantity of meat is not decorative, and the black bun changes things — it takes the sauce and the fat without falling apart halfway through, which an over-soft brioche bun does not. It is one of the signature dishes on the menu, and its exact composition, like the price of the day, can be checked online before you come.
A brasserie burger, not a fast counter
The difference is not in the talk but in the kitchen around it. Here the burger shares its kitchen with chateaubriand, tartare and fish from Saumur: the same team, the same French meat, the same demands on cooking. A burger made in a house that knows how to handle a cut of beef has little in common with a burger made in a house that does nothing else.
What else is on the table
The menu remains that of a French brasserie: charcuterie, grilled meats, cheese specialities, fish according to the deliveries, vegetarian dishes and desserts prepared here. So you can come as a group without the choice of burger imposing itself on the whole table — whoever wants a grilled meat finds one, and whoever wants neither finds something too.
Allergens are written down, dish by dish
Every dish on the online menu carries its list of allergens. For a burger that is no small matter: cereals containing gluten in the bun, milk in the cheese, eggs and mustard in the sauces, sometimes sesame or nuts. That information is read calmly before ordering, rather than resting on somebody's memory in the middle of a rush.
At what time
Monday to Friday from 9.30 a.m. to 2 a.m., Saturday from 10 a.m. to 2 a.m., closed on Sundays. At midday during the week the set menu of the day accompanies the lunch break; in the evening and at weekends the full menu takes over. Booking is not compulsory, but it remains useful at peak hours and for a large table.
