Buffalo Wild Wings

A while back we ventured into a place that specialized in chicken and ordered their burger. We knew it was a big risk but this place offered up that thing about which we write in this blog and so we were going to give them the chance to surprise us.

Surprised we were, at just how terrible their burger was compared to their regular chicken fare.

After we posted that entry Mark's cousin sent a message saying that, in essence, if you want a steak you go to a steak house, if you want chicken you go to a chicken restaurant but if you want a burger you go to a burger joint. He was right, of course.

But here we are, repeating that mistake once again. A new Buffalo Wild Wings opened near us and we through we'd give it a try for the burger, something Josh had eaten before but Mark had not.

B-Dubs is a Columbus based chain with close to 700 locations acrouss the country. It was founded by a native of Buffalo, NY who couldn't find authentic Buffalo style wings when on a trip to Kent State University.  Speaking from experience, the wings they put out at these restaurants are pretty decent, not the greatest but pretty good with a wide offering of sauces. Their menu also offers a decent choice of wraps, salads, sandwiches and, yes, burgers from which to choose.

Burgers

We picked the Build Your Own Burger (which is quite popular on menus these days) and cobbled together our personal favorites of cheese, extras and condiments. The bugers were thick and juicy and while the patty was most likely frozen it still had good flavor. At least it was better than the last burger place at which we ate.

Still, there's no reason to really go into it in any detail. Suffice it to say two things: the burger was basic and adequate and that it was further proof that Mark's cousin was right when he said don't go to chicken place and expect to get a great burger.
