The Tripel

“Top Chef” champion Brooke Williamson and chef/husband Nick Roberts have found a nice culinary niche in Playa del Rey. Playa Provisions is a multi-faceted compound, and burgers star at The Tripel, their beer-friendly gastropub on the beachside neighborhood’s main drag. Yes, they serve a more straightforward “backyard” burger, but their signature Tripel Burger fuses duck confit, pork, and aged beef before topping with sharp, pungent truffle Pecorino, arugula, and house-made apricot jam on an onion brioche bun.
