Countdown to Newest Counter Burger Location is On

The Counter is getting ready to open up another outpost of their burger eatery, where diners can mix and match toppings (312,120 combos are possible, they say) and slurp on super-indulgent shakes.
Their newest LA location opens March 22, and is at the corner of Fairfax and Sunset in West Hollywood* [map]. They will offer some menu items here that you won't find at other locations, including Japanese Style Ahi Tuna, fresh Mozzarella, crisp Pancetta, Wasabi Aioli, Artisan Bun, Parmesan French Fries and a Caramel Chocolate Chip Cookie Shake, as well as handcrafted beer and wine.
These items are part of The Counter's Market Selection program, which has all of the growing international chain's domestic locations serving "locally sourced and sustainable proteins, cheeses, toppings, sauces and buns," all of which can be a part of your custom-built burger.
*The Counter says West Hollywood, we know that, accurately, it's "West Hollywood-adjacent." 7919 Sunset Blvd. is technically in the City of Los Angeles, 90046. [Twitter] [Facebook]
