No matter how many burgers are part of this year's Downtown Sioux Falls Burger Battle, it's hard to decide which burgers to try. I know I'm not going to finish all 40 burgers. But it's all about supporting local Sioux Falls restaurants.

Honestly, I was excited to try this next burger from Remedy Brewing Company. They always have a great food and a fun atmosphere. However, the "Lunar Moo Year Burger" from Remedy Brewing Company surprised me with unexpected flavors.

According to a previous article from my co-worker Jeff Harkness, the Lunar Moo Year Burger is a "play on chili beef dish, our burger starts with a toasted sesame seed Breadsmith bun. Topped with a layer of toasted Fresno chili and roasted garlic spread, Chinese mustard aioli tossed with green onion, red bell pepper & napa cabbage slaw. Melted sharp cheddar covers a half-pound Certified Angus beef patty, topped with crunchy chow mein noodles and finished with ginger chili ketchup. Served with a side of Hot and Sour Soup. GF* without chow mein and bun." This burger from Remedy Brewing Company is one of the more unique burgers featured. I had high hopes for the taste, but this burger wasn't for me.

I had a tough time tasting the patty personally because there are so many different flavors on this burger. These tasty ingredients are great separately. Together they create a lot of overwhelming flavors. The Hot and Sour soup with the burger was not my favorite. I've never tried this soup before until this year's Burger Battle, so I do appreciate the different side options.

Many people around the Sioux Falls area enjoy the Lunar Moo Year Burger from Remedy Brewing Company. This is only my opinion. If you're looking for a different burger for this year's battle, then stop by Remedy Brewing Company.
