How would you know if you've never tried it? And everyone from the street bum to the mayor does it in the 'Burg. these guys have been in business since I was a pup.

I know all and see all. Wait that was the wizard of Oz...


I can't understand why any one included you would sacrifice the delicious taste of a medium rare burger with the slop of eggs. And the relish thing is strange as well. And are the eggs scrambled, poached or sunny side up? I feel nausea setting on just thinking about eggs. That poor poor egg sent slithering down to the stomach and intestines strangled by an egg. Oh the lack of humanity! What next, mustard on the noble burger?

I believe in burgers being served the proper way with cheese, bacon and 2 types of onions-raw and sauteed and the burger should be medium rare (or on some special occasions just flat out rare).


Eggs? On a burger? Remind me not to have you become my personal chef.

You sir, are a barbarian, there is no such critter as a mustard-less burger.

I forgot the Cheesey Western also has cheese. Some people have a narrower palate than others I suppose...and lack the adventurousness to try something new.

I wholeheartedly concur with your proper assessment. I always have mustard on my burgers. A delicious condimental along side pickles and a couple slices of tomato necessity.

My favorite burgers come from The Shake Shack, The Stand Burger, and BLT Burger.

I love the shack stack from The Shake Shack. My favorite traditional burger comes from The Stand.

And BLT Burger has the greatest milkshake in their spiked milkshakes...

Great news for residents of the NOW great city of Miami!:

Quote:
First, Daniel Boulud announced plans for London and now ... Shake Shack Miami! There’s been zilch sign of progress at the Nolita location of Shake Shack and still no opening time frame beyond 2010, but Danny Meyer has just announced that in the spring or summer of next year he’ll open the first non–New York Shack at 1111 Lincoln Road, a swank retail-residential project from developer Robert Wennett and architects Herzog and De Meuron. A press release informs us that the new Shack will be an indoor-outdoor affair featuring “lush water gardens” and 50-year-old oak trees, and one imagines it’ll be the first of others around the country. Also on the subject of burger expansion — the other day we rang up Whataburger on a whim, and yeah, they have no plans to come here. Come on, all you In-N-Outs and Smashburgers and Culver's — get to New York while the gettin’ is good

I went to The Habit last night. Probably one of the best burgers in California. Though nothing will beat the one I had in North Dakota in the 80's.

How do you like your hamburger cooked? Medium rare through well done?

For me, medium rare is perfect!

I also prefer medium rare. Make sure there fresh onions! And some mushrooms and I'm in heaven.

Stop... it... the temptation of that image ... Wink ... I can't afford to go for decent burger these days.

I don't understand the paranoia that drives people to have their burgers on the charcoal side of well done. Mad
