And the potato salad that comes with it ain't shabby either! Yes, I can confirm, the burgers are good at the Black Cat, by far the best in HCMC.

Their "Garfield" burger is amazing (bacon cheeseburger). Just don't eat it too much or you will surely die of a heart attack (it's that good!). Also, make sure to try their cheesecake brownie.

One of, if not the best cheeseburgers I have eaten. Geoff also has another place, Glass Noodle, very good burritos! At least when the cooks understand I hate onions.

I am making plans to try the burger sometime soon. I need a posse to help. <strong>N</strong> - You're coming with to help with the burger. Mark your calendar ;-) <strong>Vince</strong> - I heard about Black Cat from fellow expats and from reading expat magazines. I think the CNN honor is a bit of a joke. Top 10 in the world? Yah right... And thank you for the eating tip, I will add it to my ever-growing list :-) <strong>foodhoe</strong> - This burger will go down in history.

I wouldn't even do it in fancy running shoes... I agree that the toast looked dry and the blackberry jam looked pretty thick, and it seems very strange to me that the cream cheese on your bagel should go on the bagel, not on top of the veggies! Interesting post, looking forward to hearing about the burger. gastronomer, that people are running marathons barefoot in the heat really amazes me!
