I'll have to vote my brother in laws backyard super smoker BBQ. No there's no website nor is it a business; just a family thing. Needless to say, he's developed a huge belly from 8 years of year round super smoker operation.
Oh man, heart attacks are no laughing joke and the USA is having a horrible problem with cardio and heart health problems. This is a really good try at a burger joint biz, but for anyone who thinks, because they have parents who died from heart failure due to consuming much hydrogenated oil and fats with a lack of physical activity, it's scary and uncomfortable to be reminded. It's true that a diet high fat, hot oils, and cholesterol leads to cardiovascular disease and heart attack and eating too much of this restaurants food will do it to you just as many others will. There's so much hydrogenated oils and saturated fats in food at home and that's what really killing people in their 50's to early 60's such as my parents; others only in their 40's. Grandpa ate the shit out of fried foods fried in hydrogenated oil as a truck driver for 15 years straight, got fat, smoke 2 packs a day, and dropped dead at 42 of heart attack. I'm lucky to be escaping the carnage by being educated, getting regular exercise, and watching my diet with only a few exceptions while on vacation.
I think it's a really sick joke of a theme for a burger joint. I wouldn't eat the triple nor go more than once to this diner. |

but what if i offered to go out for dinner with you there and it was on me (the American way to taking someone out for dinner)? would you come and have a big ass sexy burger and mac on the nurses with my handsome ass, huh? would you? could you?
the friendliness, kindness, and tolerance of the American people is the best in The U.S.A.  |

I prefer the Korean way.
At the end of dinner, everyone makes a furious dash to the cash register, knocking each other down in the process. The "winner" gets to pay for everyone. |

You Bostonians might know of Bartley's Burgers in Harvard Square...I used to work there. The burgers there are pretty good, but it's way overpriced. One burger is a triple burger with BBQ, cheese, bacon, with onion rings and french fries. Heart attack on a plate! It was funny to watch people scarf it down and then get pissed when they had the trots and they found out there was no bathroom in the joint. |

Those burgers don't impress me in the least. A burger should be something you can pick up and take a bite out of. Don't get me wrong, I love burgers but these are just stupid. Nurses are a nice touch... |

I enjoy a good burger and see nothing wrong with overindulgence from time to time.
The best Mexican food I've had in America is at Taquerias el
Mexicano on Calle Ocho in Miami. Fantastic. Though, I've never really explored southern Texas, so it may be sub-par compared.

About a half-mile north of the border in El Paso is a small, presumably unlicensed, cinderblock structure run by a woman known only as "Abuela." She's only open for lunch, Monday through Saturday. She only admits about thirty or so folks each day - the first thirty in line at high noon (usually about half of them soldiers from Ft. Bliss). Lunch is family style, and you eat what's served at wooden picnic tables. One day it's tamales, the next it could be Chile Colorado, and the next, say, carnitas. The meal is always served with frijoles, arroz, and tortillas de maiz, and you have a choice of horchata, tea, or water. At one o'clock sharp Abuela passes around a wooden bowl, and diners pitch in whatever they thought the meal was worth.
Abuela makes bank and serves the best Mexican food I've ever tasted. |

the cottage was and probably still is a solid spot. i never made it though any of the monsters like that though. i lived up in cleveland circle for awhile and tried to do some damage at the eagle deli a few times, but i could never get through the godzilla to get my polaroid on the wall! over-cooked meat and dry fries. |

Green Top BBQ sandwich. Dora, Alabama (Memphis-Birmingham highway). Sweet pulled pork (Boston butt) on a bun, with a dollop of tomato/vinegar based sauce and a couple of sliced pickles thrown on for good measure. Real good! |

Do you remember the Wurst Haus Restaurant on J.F.K Street? Sadly, this landmark closed several years ago. I used to eat lunch there from time-to-time when I was a secondary school pupil on Brattle Street back in the '80s. My mom told me once that she practically lived there when she went to Radcliffe College.
Other places to visit in the area might be the Vietnamese restaurant with racist staff, very good Pho, and the dirtiest toilets imaginable: It's located in the shopping plaza with a parking garage in the same area of J.F.K. Street in which the venerable Wurst Haus Restaurant was housed (just around the corner from the Au Bon Pain Cafe and two doors down from the Pizzeria Uno).
