Dish of the Day: Bailey's Creekstone Hamburger

by Leslie Turk

The burger's standout ingredient is its one-half pound patty made with fresh Creekstone Farms beef. At the recently renovated and renamed Bailey's Bistro, the classic hamburger has been reimagined and revamped. Dressed with lettuce, purple onions and aioli, and sandwiched between a Kaiser bun, the burger's standout ingredient is its one-half pound patty made with fresh Creekstone Farms beef. Creekstone Farms steaks and Black Angus beef contain no added hormones or antibiotics and are USDA-certified organic. The result is an unbelievably tender burger that highlights the beef flavor. Served with fries, the dish is a $8.99. Add cheddar, Swiss, smoked gouda or grilled mushrooms for 69 cents each.

After a nearly two-month renovation, the former Bailey's Seafood and Grill reopened as Bailey's Bistro alongside sister restaurant Ema's Café on July 12 at the Centerpiece Shopping Center. The two restaurants complement each other, with Ema's serving breakfast and lunch from 6:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. seven days a week, and Bailey's open for dinner Thursday through Saturday from 5:30 p.m. to 9 p.m. and Sunday Brunch from 10:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Mention EatLafayette at Bailey's Bistro until Aug. 15 and enjoy a three course dinner for two for $40.
