This time is Smashburger, a Colorado-based chain of burger joints with over 100 locations nationwide that’s set to open its first South Florida restaurant on Nov. 15 in Coral Springs, according to Broward New Times.
The name of the place comes from the way the burgers are prepared: by smashing the patties on a 400-degree flat grill using a metal plate to sear in all the juicy flavors.
Besides the Coral Springs location, two other Smashburgers are set to open in Kendal and North Miami Beach. I’ve actually seen the “coming soon” sign and Smashburger logo outside the soon-to-be NMB restaurant, which is going to be located near Florida International University's Biscayne Bay Campus.
All three locations are part of a plan by the company to open close to 200 restaurants nationwide by 2012, writes Inc.com.
A few weeks ago I went ahead and asked Smashburger through Twitter when their NMB location was going to open:
It seems like plans have delayed a bit.
Local food blogger Burger Beast says Smashburger's menu will have new items just for the South Florida market, including:
Spicy Baja Black Bean Burger: Pepper Jack cheese, guacamole, lettuce, tomato, onion, spicy chipotle mayo and jalapenos on a spicy chipotle bun.
Skinny Chicken: All-White Meat, grilled or crispy chicken sandwiches combined with toppings such as goat cheese, spinach, avocado, mango, pineapple or grilled onions.
The Coral Springs’ Smashburger will be located at 1840 N. University Drive.
