When was the last time you were at Fuddrucker’s? I have to say, it’s nigh on 10 years for me. I don’t remember it being extremely good, I just remember it was like the ultimate haven for creating the burger I wanted. And I dig that. Oddly enough, the topic of burger places in Chicago has come up – with LOTS of good names of restaurants coming up. So. Let’s start an informal little Metromix-ish poll here. Who’s got the best burger? My vote? I’m not shy – I’m going right off the bat with Kuma’s Corner up on Belmont.
Seriously. If you can order a burger that has “anger” listed as an ingredient – I’m in.
So – schad.net readers – who has it? Who has the Best Burger? Oh – and Witt, In-n-Out sucks. It’s a pop culture reference point, not a burger worth eating.
If there’s any missing from the list, add it in the comments, and I’ll update the voting options…
Wow, it’s been a while since I’ve been back to Chicago but Twisted Spoke? I guess you like your burgers with a side of street cred and extra suck.
The Twisted Spoke is probably where the first hipster, disappointed that someone else saw Pulp Fiction, uttered “In-n-Out is actually not that good”. Puh-leez.
For me, it’s a toss up between Moody’s and Kuma’s
Twisted Spoke was the suggestion of someone here at the office – I’ve never been there myself. Kuma’s all the way.
What about Hackney’s?
Hackney’s? Never been. I’ll add it, and you can come back and vote for it
Boston Blackies. Hands down. But only the one at 164 East Grand Avenue. The other bizarro blackies are not to be trusted.
Dude, 5 guys.
