C.K. Dexter Holland, what is the most you would pay for a really good burger

What does it come with? I'm going to say $16, maybe 18 if it's really special.

the shake shack burger is just not filling, but the double is gross feeling in the stomach

Solution - the shack stack, or a burger and a dog (which is a little much). I never eat the fries.

pretty satisfied to have my burger opinions called ridiculous by someone thinking about a really special $18 burger.

dont feel like ive had that many sliders, theres some place in the east 20s that I heard abt

I don't 'get' sliders

like how many are you expected to eat

only burger he'll touch

In fact, it contains at least one ingredient I won't touch.

3 xp

thick patties you gotta unhinge your jaw to eat, man, that's not good

smh @ all of u

you throw in some toppings, maybe a thick slice of tomato, you gotta be some kind of deep sea jaw fish to eat it

And anyone paying attention knows I'm on the other side of the aisle from molecular gastronomy.

is the burger made w/ love?

That's not generally how the foie gras production process would be described.

i think the prime meats burger is $18 or so, i've never tried one, but thought about buying a pre-made patty from their store for $6 the other day.

if i'm going to pay $18 for an entree it is not going to be a burger - though i've paid ~$12 for the burger at henry public which was worth it.

the birds have to be treated inhumanely, strapped down and force-fed huge amounts of food.

is this really that much different than how cows, chickens, and pigs are treated in factory farms

that's what generates heat in the cultural capital of America these days, burgers.

i find this burger's tempo inadequate and its melody uninteresting fuiud

I elected this burger for lunch and it's not as good as everybody said it was. In fact, it's worse than those burgers everybody here hates!

If you don't understand gastro theory then I guess you would be the kind of person who likes shake shack.

daaaaaaamn

Trying to remember if I've had the Black Label burger ($26) at Minetta. Think I might have gone for the cheaper one ($17) or a steak or something.

Anyway, Dumont (the restaurant) used to and may still make my favorite burger ($14, 16 with cheese), but I think it's slipped a bit. I also like Zuni's burger ($15).

My bog-standard burger, has inflated to $10 (plus delivery) once I add grilled onions and seven grain.

Dumont is good. Been to Minetta once but when you can get a $30 steak it seems weird to get a $26 burger. If I ever went back I'd probably get it.

If you don't understand gastro theory then I guess you would be the kind of person who likes shake shack.

lmao

hey we could talk pizza. DiFara's closed! Grimaldi's moving! improperly grandfathered-in coal-fired oven licenses!

Guys I was parodying this post from OK Computer thread, OK

"very basic musical theory" doesn't "make[]" the album "sound bad" to me, it just helps describes why it doesn't sound good.

didn't difara's reopen after they got rid of the rats and slime or whatever

love me a good rat and slime burger

actually it's pizza and the name for it is 'south brooklyn style'

didn't difara's reopen after they got rid of the rats and slime or whatever

haha I think so. I've never been, it seems too annoying.

where I really need to go is Roberta's.

Let's not forget that Motorino in wmsbg sank into the ground.

yeah how the hell did that happen. it was good and they were always packed.

btw I'm off all next week, shd probly go get bacon donuts w/ ian

i really like roberta's, but i am a noted philistine

xpost: No, I mean it literally sank into the ground. They had to close it due to structural problems with the foundation.

pizza needs a good foundation

I noticed another fancypants pub opened in the space that was closed-down-phoebe's for a while though. There are so many fancypants pubs in that area now and still not enough good places to eat.

god that nyc thin-crust, always sinking into the ground

never would have happened in chitown

haha whoops obviously I'm a step behind. I did hear it closed but not why.

never would have happened in chitown

Would fall into the Great Lakes there. Might have to send the Pequod after it.

robertas is cool but all the hype around it is p mysterious, idk I went there a few times when it fist opened *sniff*

robertas is cool but all the hype around it is p mysterious

Not really. It's in Brooklyn.

I
a) like the chicago style hot dogs at shake shack
b) don't "get" sliders either
c) prefer totonnos in coney island to di fara

does this make me a philistine

i think totonnos must be what di fara was before the foodies discovered it - fairly sleepy mom & pop place

honestly di fara was pretty filthy the times I've been - health inspectors OTM
