Burgers


Samantha and I ate at Counter Burger a few weeks ago, and I'm going to go ahead and call it brunch because 1) it was before 11:00 am and 2) something interesting happened (i.e. horseradish mayo).

Introduction
Location: Counter Burger
Food score: 8
Drink score: We had water and Coke, so..... I don't really know what to say for this one.

Materials and Methods
We ate: Burgers, Onion straws, Fries.
We drank: Water and Coke

Results and Discussion
My burger toppings included a honey wheat bun, swiss cheese, gruyere cheese, pickles, mixed greens, bacon, and horseradish mayonaise, which I'm convinced that out of the ca. 20 spreads that Counter Burger offers, is the best spread.  Note this is a claim my Nana would respectfully disagree with, because she likes honey mustard better.   One piece of advice I might suggest for the Counter Burger patron is to eat the burger as fast as possible, because Samantha and I both noticed that the buns on the second halves of our burgers got too soggy. A solution might be to de-bun the second half of the burger until it's ready to be eaten.

Omg, this brunch review is reading like a lab report (edit: I included headings in small font, because I figured this was an all or nothing writing style).

For fun, a list of my favorite burgers in California:

1. Burgers and Brew Jalapeno Bacon Cheeseburger - the one in Sacramento, not Davis
2. Barney's Bacon Cheeseburger (with curly fries and a Turkish coffee milkshake) in Berkeley, CA
3. Counter Burger - anything with two kinds of cheese
4. Sam's Mediterranean Cafe Cheeseburger with yogurt sauce (with the best fries in Davis!) in Davis, CA
5. Kupros Cheeseburger in Midtown Sacramento


What's your favorite burger?
