Hamburger

$8.99

For my first burger back into the normal burger game (because let's be honest, Jack in the Box is not up to par with the burgers that I usually review on here) I went to a place that I have been seeing raved about on Facebook for their crawfish, but upon going through their pictures, they had great looking burgers and I was not disappointed.
Let me start by giving full disclosure, I cannot give this burger full points because of it's lack of creativity. This is simply a regular hamburger, and while it doesn't have all the extra thrills that make for some fun burgers, this burger is STILL really awesome.
The veggies that topped the burger were good for what they were. They tasted pretty fresh so they get a full amount of points there, but we are here to more importantly talk about the other aspects of the burger so let's get to it.
The meat was super thick and more importantly, dripping with juice. And with how big this burger was, it took me quite awhile to eat it, and it never dried out, which is something I am normally not accustomed to with these monster burgers. Adding to that, obviously this burger was very big. I didn't eat dinner after having this burger (and fries) and when I come back, I honestly will probably split a burger. So just know you are getting your money's worth out of this burger. The last positive thing I have to say about this burger is I loved the bun. I am always wanting to have good tasting bread with my burgers and this one was very flavorful and soft, I almost wanted to just order some of their buns to go so that I could make some burgers at home with them.
On the negative side, I already spoke to the lack of creativity, but the only other thing I think I would have graded negatively is that the burger wasn't seasoned to the potential that I thought it could be. Being a cajun place, they made sure that their fries had a cajun seasoning on them that tasted really good and gave them a little spice. I would be curious to see how their burger would have tasted if they had added that seasoning to the meat, I think it would have really made the burger pop and would have given it a less "normal burger" taste.
All in all, this burger while having it's creative flaws, is without a doubt the BEST basic burger I have had to date, and if Cormier's eventually rolls out some creative specialty burgers, I will be first in line to be back to try them.

VERDICT: 3.5 out of 5 Stars.

And so the Chase continues…

Walden War-Tejas Cafe

Tejas Cafe (Mariel's Deli) & (Walden Market) Montgomery, TX Tejas Burger Cheese, Jalapenos, Onions, Cilanto & Chipotle Mayo on a Jalapeno Bun (with Ketchup at Tejas Cafe Walden Market) $7 For this week, I had a friend recommend me a place to go but when looking up the place, I found that there were two of the same name on the same road and when I couldn't get a hold of said friend, I had a very tough decision to make. I either tried one and hoped it was the right one, or I TRY THEM BOTH. I got both, and therefore we have the War on Walden Road between the Two Tejas Cafes. Now both Tejas Cafes are within Shell gast stations on Walden road, one in the Shell that has "Mariel's Deli" and one that has "Walden Market". Before I start, I can tell there is some skepticism, "You want me to eat gas station food?" Trust me, I had THE SAME THOUGHT before I was led to this place, but holy shit was I wrong. THIS PLACE IS GREAT. Ri...

Omega Grill

Omega Grill Spring, TX BBQ Burger Farm 44 Meat, BBQ Sauce, Bacon, Cheddar Cheese, & Fried Onions $12.99 For my first review back home, I decided to go to a place that I have always seen but never really tried until now and I am kind of mad at myself for not trying it to begin with. As I was researching this place, I found online that they have an award winning Breakfast Burger and I was very eager to try it as I hadn't really had a breakfast burger on this blog yet, so it was something new, but when I arrived at the place, it turns out that their prices online were wrong and this burger was going to be $17. I frankly just wasn't willing to take a chance that day on something I might not like, so I opted with what the waitress said was their 2nd most popular option, their BBQ burger, and I wasn't let down. First of all, I thought the presentation was great. How they stacked the onion rings and ingredients was super fun and I love it. But let's get ...

Lord's Kitchen

Lord's Kitchen San Antonio, TX 1/2 lb Cheeseburger Cheese, Lettuce, Tomato, Pickle, Onion $10.25 I usually love my trips out of town because I get to go to a burger place that I don't have access to on a daily basis within my local area, but instead I was left with a severe feeling of disappointment on my drive home after eating a burger from the Lord's Kitchen. I opted to go with a regular cheeseburger because I wanted a full meal of fries and a drink and looking back now, I should maybe have gotten a specialty burger instead. The toppings that came on this burger were all the average things that you would expect from a burger place and it didn't taste like they were high quality, now they did not taste like they were of bad quality, just an average kind of taste. The meat, which I feel like should be the thing that you should take pride on, was bland. It honestly tasted to me like a burger that one may find at a drive thru like Burger King or Wend...
