Happy Meal and I dropped by Las Vegas after the Kansas visit to check in with The Marinater (now a Las Vegas resident) and to meet up with the Pretty Lady Veterinarian.
We went to B&B Burger & Beer twice (at The Venetian). Chef Jon Littleton is one of my favorite burger chefs, and the burgers are just a little better when he is running the kitchen. Both The Marinater and the Pretty Lady Veterinarian were duly BLOWN AWAY by the crazy goodness of the Drive Thru Burger. I can't stress enough how completely excellent this burger has been on all three visits. It was simply perfect, and I am grateful that it is far away, or I would be the next contestant on The Biggest Loser.
Happy Meal and I also stopped by the Broadway Burger Bar & Grill at NY NY for a recheck on the cheeseburgers there. On this visit, the burgers were merely competent but nothing special--just average. The tomato slices were surprisingly bland and mealy (shameful considering it was the height of Summer).
This is off topic, but the Croissant Donuts at America Donuts (in NY NY Hotel and Casino) were stunningly good. We could see why New Yorkers queue up for these.

you still have a fan who checks your page, Pete. I don't eat many burgers these days but I do like to look and drool.
ReplyDeleteC'mon -- A long break, then two posts, then another 6-week break. Hope all is ok. If you are just burnt out, let some of us help you.
ReplyDeleteAs an Englishman, I'm very jealous of all these fantastic burgers you have access to! Love the blog.
