"I believe that the great American hamburger is a thing of beauty, its simple charms noble, pristine. The basic recipe--ground beef, salt, and pepper, formed into a patty, grilled or seared on a griddle, then nestled between two halves of a bun, usually but not necessarily accompanied by lettuce, a tomato slice, and some ketchup--is, to my mind, unimprovable by man or God. A good burger can be made more complicated, even more interesting by the addition of other ingredients--like good cheese or bacon.....relish perhaps, but it will never be made better." - Anthony Bourdain, from the chapter entitled 'Meat', in his book Medium Raw.

Hug Hes (Ogden, UT)

Hug Hes is one of our favorte locally owned restaurants in Ogden. S. especially loves their Cobb Salad, but this isn't a salad blog, so on to the burgers!

V. got the Ultimate Burger.































S. got the halibut burger ($8.49). That's OK for this burger blog, isn't it? We never said it had to be beef burger.



































And even though this last picture isn't of a burger, it's one of Hug Hes' signatures: a loaf of beer bread with a raspberry yogurt spread. So delicious.
