How was my burger successful?
How could I improve?
My burger was successful because it had a range of flavours that worked really well together.
I could improve by making my presentation a lot nicer and make my pattie less dry.

    EVALUATION- was my toastie successful and why?
    What could I have improved?

    My toastie was successful because it had the color variation I wanted and I could taste the variation of flavors.






    To improve I could have grilled the bun more to add crisper.
