Best Burger....Ever
Friday I went out to lunch with coworkers to a local brewery/restaurant called Destihl. I've been there many times, but decided to try something new. There are kind of an upscale casual place. They have a chef.
Anyway, I ordered their American Wagyu burger, minus the bleu cheese (not my thing), medium rare, with a glass of stout. I'm still thinking about this burger a day later. Sooooooooooo good. Best $12.95 I've ever spent. I swear it was a whole pound of beef. I'm never one to leave food behind, but I didn't touch my fries. There was just no way they could have possibly lived up to the rest of the meal.

I like Red Robin's Royal Burger. It is topped with a fried egg. It is wonderful!

Till they got rid of the Monster Burger. I won't go back. Even if I request the "original" Monster Burger, they bring out some fake facsimile and call it a Monster Burger. Nothing like the old one.

When I ate beef, I used to really like some avocado slices on the sandwich, really brought out the flavor of the beef!

There are many things in this world I will never do, paying $13 for a burger is near the top of that list.
Ultimate grease burgers at jack-in-the-crack are only around tree-fiddy. |

There is a place near me that serves great burgers...and they are cheap!!
All-American Or you can hit up Old Homestead and get a Kobe burger for $41  Or a Filet Mignon burger for $27 ( though Filet is to lean for a good burger) Old Homestead Five guys is good... A Smash Burger opened here recently.... ok...... Bobby Flay opened a burger joint here.... again ..."OK" There is Fatburger nearby... and it is...just "ok" I'd go out of my way to go to All-American rather than go to one of those trendy chains...
