"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.

Taste of Prime (LGA Airport)


A very good burger at an airport, which as we all know is a rarity!  This was at Taste of Prime in the Delta Terminal of La Guardia airport.

The Pig 'N Whistle (New York City)



The Pig 'N Whistle is a chain of Irish pubs in New York City.  This is the sirloin burger, which costs $11.95 and is served with homemade steak fries.  The Pig 'N Whistle is a fun environment (they had live music) and the burger was very tasty.  For NYC standards, $11.95 for a good meal is a great bargain.
