The words "burgers" and "healthy" don't always go together.
Dearborn native Sam Abbas, 29, on Friday opens Brome Burgers & Shakes that fetaures a never-frozen organic and all-natural premium beef burger, non-GMO and fresh salads, Sylvia Rector of the Detroit Free Press writes.
The restaurant. at 22062 Michigan Ave., has seven beef burgers along with chicken, haddock and vegetarian burgers. It is Halal..
Rector writes:
Rather than open a so-called health-food concept, he decided to focus instead on America’s favorite food — hamburgers — and make them and other dishes on the menu with higher-quality ingredients that he believes are better for consumers. The organic beef is grass-fed; in fact, the restaurant is named for a type of hay grown in the West for animal feed. The all-natural beef comes from small Midwest Amish farms and is raised without antibiotics or hormones. (Both organic and all-natural beef are offered in order to give consumers a choice of price points.)
The menu is by executive chef Zane Makky, 25, an Art Institute of Michigan culinary graduate, the Freep reports.
Brome Burgers & Shakes opens at 6 p.m. Friday. After that, it will be open daily 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
