Friday night we bundled up against the cold and the blowing snow and biked on down to George's Buffet, the third stop on the Tour of Burgers.
We arrived to a mostly full bar and were greeted by one of my favorite bartenders, Helen (she helped me celebrate in fine style my 30th birthday, and for that I'll never forget her!).
We placed our orders for beers and burgers and shortly thereafter three of our friends, Andrea, Dawn and Ryan, showed up to join us.
We sipped and chatted, but the big moment arrived when our burgers, wrapped in white paper, showed up on our table.
There is something so simple, so classic about a George's cheeseburger...the beef, grilled to perfection (actually it's probably fried) garnished with ketchup, mustard, pickle, onion, garlic, and of course cheese, on a fluffy pillow-white bread bun with sesame seeds on top...it nearly melts in your mouth with tasty goodness. Nothing fancy about it, but somehow George's burgers will always be one of my favorite burgers in town.
Stay tuned next week for our newest adventure: The Mill.

These burgers are cooked in a small countertop pizza oven that you can buy about anywhere. The burgers are frozen patties, never fresh. The Solon Station is owned by the same guy and that's how they do it at both places. Pretty weak burgers, but for a quick bar snack they are ok.
