This is a six napkin burger – juicy, luxurious and so delicious! The secret is in the egg salad sauce that tops the grilled salmon. This egg salad has all the flavours to enhance the salmon…creamy egg, dill, capers, lemon! A heavenly partnership.

A number of years back the Hotel Vancouver served these salmon sandwiches at their restaurant but they have now taken them off their menu. So I decided to recreate this delicious burger. Here is my version of the Salmon Burger!
