"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.

Rickenbacker's Bistro (Ogden, UT)

















Rickenbacker's is one of my favorite Ogden-area restaurants. They have gourmet food, but it's not a stuffy atmosphere. Their burger did not disappoint. S. had the halibut and V. had the fish and chips so we get to hear about the burger from a guest blogger today. B., take it away!
