Laschet's too.
To me, this is the pinnacle of the fried egg application: soft and runny egg against a crisp schnitzel. The broad cutlet is also an ample platter to ensure that none of the yolk winds up as a dry crust on the plate. With a squeeze of lemon, some capers, and a liter of beer, this is where the fried-egg-as-topping is perfected.

Agreed. I never order plain Wiener Schnitzel. I always ask for it ala Holstein, whether it's on the menu or not. Been doing that since well before eggs became trendy enough to be called "hen eggs".

Agreed. Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. Nothing to get outraged over, IMO.

It's no slouch on a dolsot bibimbap either though I guess that's not fried

Outraged, surely not. Casual topic of discussion to help pass the time during a boring Friday at work? I don't see the harm. I can use all the help I can get to make the day go faster

And bacon...and shark meat!

Thanks Jeff. I'll be sure to run future posts by you for cultural ripeness.

But beyond that, a really good burger shouldn't need anything, especially an egg. When the meat's of good quality and the burger is properly cooked, a little salt and pepper are all that I need. An egg may actually get in the way of a really good burger.

Instinctively I agree with you, but I do really like some good aioli on a burger, which one might think would have similar problems to the ones you described about the fried egg.
