Located
through the same main door as Skip’s Bagels (go to the right for CheezBurger Café),
the place is small and cozy with oversized booths filling just about all of the
available space. On the tables were checker boards in case someone wanted to
play.
The
menu is small as would befit a true burger place and they have something called
the Triple Threat Challenge and though I never learned what it was, I did see
both the wall of fame and the wall of shame.
With
the grill in sight and quick service, I was excited to try out the main attraction.
The Burger
Though
they offer a whole wide selection of specialty burgers, I decided, as always,
to just stick with the plain old classic. Being hungry I ordered up a double.
Each patty is one third pound of 100% pure Angus beef.
I
love going to a place where the grill is out front. Not only can you see the
cooks doing their magic but you can hear and smell the meat as it sizzles its
way toward perfection. I wasn’t asked how I wanted my burger cooked (it came
medium well) but it was cooked just that way.
The
patties are not very round which means that they are stacked quite high. This makes
eating the burger difficult. Add to that how much provolone cheese they had
melted, dripping off carrying bits of lettuce, and handling this baby was a
challenge. But worth it.
You
can taste the good, quality Angus beef with each bite. Yes, I could taste the
garden and the cheese and the condiments but the beef shone through with each
and every chomp. This place lived up to its name. Especially when you toss in
how affordable it is.
My
one disappointment was the fries. Don’t get me wrong, my curly fries were OK
but the menu claimed they offered waffle fries but I was told they didn’t have
any. I settled.
All
in all if you can find the place (it’s just a little north of Union Cemetery
Rd. on the east side of the street) it is well worth trying.
