NFT: It's National Cheeseburger Day

Lafferty, Daniel : 9/18/2014 1:39 pm
what are you favorite spots for a burger?

I have two favorites -

The famed JG Melon on 74th & 3rd as well as The Pipers Kilt in Eastchester, NY.

I generally go bacon cheeseburger at both establishments.

Both spots are TOP CHOICE MEAT!
yum

was a chain in Hawaii called Teddy's Bigger Burgers. As a broke college kid it was like a 5 star meal. Haven't had one since I moved years ago. I remain hopeful, they seem to be expanding to the mainland.

There is a place in Phoenix called Delux that's pretty good. Another good burger in the Phoenix (Scottsdale) area is at this place called Pig and Pickle, which is one of my favorite restaurants in town. Even their veggie burger is outstanding.

Does it live up to the hype? Seems like I can never get a reservation there.

Burger is delicious, but is not exactly a "classic" burger taste.

It eats more like a steak, which is probably due to the mix of premium beef cuts they use. Definitely some nutty, funky, dry-aged notes to this burger. Super tender and flavorful -- you could probably gum this burger with no teeth.

My favorite burger in NYC. Located on 30th & 2nd, the place looks like a dumpy, locals-only watering hole, but serves some of the best bar food along with some unexpectedly refined chalkboard specials.

THe burger is always cooked perfectly and reaches the optimal balance of salty, beefy, fatty perfection.
I've heard Waterfront Ale House

makes some good grub - bar food, wings, etc. Nice to hear that the burger is worthy of a try.
Village Whiskey in Philly is LEGIT

So damn good. Iron Chef Garces place. Ate there with my family before my boys surgery at CHOP. Was the best burger I have ever had by far.
Oh shit totally forgot

there is a spot in Santa Monica I went this summer called Father's Office.

Ton of craft beer on tap (including Pliny). They have a burger called the Office Burger - its a patty of fine dry-aged beef topped with caramelized onions, Gruyère and Maytag cheeses, applewood-smoked bacon compote and arugula served on a soft roll.

It is without question on the best burgers I've ever had.

Burger I've had is from Ray's Hell Burger in Arlington, VA. My personal favorite is the Soul Burger Number One, Diablo style.

My favorite chain burger place is Culver's. Mmmm . . . Butter burger (and custard for desert).

City Tavern really? Didn't even know to had burgers on the menu. Will have to check it out.
I have a few spots...  
EricJ (formerly Tyleraimee) : 9/18/2014 9:07 pm : link
Not really in any particular order...

1. Horsefeathers in Tarrytown. Get the "knickerbocker" and add bacon. It has caramelized onoins mixed in with the meat and is topped with horseradish cheddar.
2. Terry's Turf Club in Cincinnati
3. The Burger Bar in Roy Utah.
4. The Chuck Box - Tempe AZ
5. Burgatory - Pittsburgh

burgers in Florida suck. More than the pizza. And the deli sandwiches. Especially breakfast sandwiches.

I hate Florida food.

I walked in on a whim with some chick who Omaha'ed me (though in my defense I had no idea she had a boyfriend but wanted to hang out with me) on a Sunday afternoon. Didn't have to wait at all.

I thought JG Melon's was vastly overrated.
