I'm finally catching up on the latest issue of Saveur, and the Saveur 100 mentioned the DVD documentary Hamburger America. I so need this. My disdain for the thing served at McDonald's that's almost completely unlike a hamburger ("you current have hamburger and no hamburger in your inventory") aside, there are few food, imho, more inherently enjoyable than a burger.

At Val's Burgers near me (it's been around since the fifties), the burgers are so good that when they arrive, I dip my finger into the grease on the top and lick my finger because the grease is just that good. They're some good burgers. Also, they have kick-ass onion rings and black-walnut milkshakes to which they're happy to add a whole banana. And the milkshakes come in the big metal cup that two people can share.

Walnuts are optional. Strawberry? Banana (vanilla with a banana in it)? Chocolate? Butter pecan? Coffee? And they can malt anything, of course.

We usually pass up lunch then head over for dinner at around 4 pm, to skip the crowd. (They call the milkshake three servings. Ha! I can share, but with one other person who's not greedy.)

On your trips up here, did anyone intro you to Bartleys Burgers
in Harvard Sq ?
A Legend as long as i can remember, not even the yuppie takeover of Hvd Sq drove it out :)
