🍔Nom Nom Burger 🍔

My first son loved to put potato chips on his burger. It’s hard to believe years later his old man finally had one. Pre-dinner burger before U2 at the Sphere included a stop at

I went with the Nom Nom Burger. A pub style patty cooked to order of their prime beef blend. Melted cheddar with pickles and 1000 island dressing topped with their house-made potato chips in a sesame brioche bun.

I really enjoyed the salty crunch when you bite into this bad boy. The bun had a nice soft compression to it providing a proper bun to patty ratio. Fries were thick and crispy with seasoning.

I deliberately avoided some of the celebrity burgers on the strip. Holsteins is ranked pretty high by the locals and their burgers did not disappoint.

🍔 Fukuburger 🍔

If you’re in the Las Vegas area and looking for a great burger off the strip checkout Highly rated by locals they offer American style burgers with a Japanese twist.

Since it was my first time I went with the Fukuburger. A nicely seasoned pub style patty with American cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickled onions, and plenty of wasabi mayo and Fuku sauce. There’s a nice medley here with the savory meat and cheese dancing with the bite and creaminess of the sauces. The pickled onions offering some tang and the lettuce and tomato bringing freshness. I went through quite a few napkins with this bad boy! Paired it with a soft drink and crispy seasoned fries, I left plenty full and satisfied.

🍔In ‘n Out Double Cheeseburger Animal Style🍔

Out West last week which meant a stop at In ‘n Out. I always go for the double cheeseburger animal style. The fries are a bit meh considering they’re fresh cut but I heard someone order them well done. I’ll try that next time. What’s your favorite In n Out?

🍔Godzilla Burger🍔

A bit of a crazy week but managed to grab a quick lunch On this visit I went with their BOM - The Godzilla Burger. 1/4 lb beef patty with Togarashi-spiced bacon, provolone cheese, wasabi mayo, lettuce, and tomato. I added an extra patty to make this more of a monster burger (pun intended). Nice spice to this bad boy with the wasabi may offering a bit of a kick along with the Togarishi (a 7 ingredient slice mixture containing red chili pepper) bacon. The lettuce and tomato are a nice addition to cutting some of the heat. My burger was served steaming hot which I really appreciated with some crispy fries. No heat lamp death if you get my drift.

The family run local business chain continues to grow in the Twin Cities with their newest location in Edina. Each location has their own signature branding and design which I really enjoy.

Fun Fact. Did you know Godzilla has a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame?

🍔Smashed Burger🍔
First burger of 2024 was in Plymouth for lunch trying out the Smashed burger. Two certified angus beef patties with American cheese, butter, and pickles. I opted to add lettuce tomato and onion (LTO) at no extra charge to see how the combo worked. I was glad I did as the LTO added some additional flavors and complexity with the tomato and onion complementing the meat and cheese. I wished it could have had a bit more seasoning. The burgers at Northern Tap House come with a choice of beer battered fries, kettle chips, or soup. I went with chips this time which were amply provided. I’ve been to this location a few times and it is always packed at lunchtime.

Northern Tap House is part of the family owned Lincoln Hospitality Group. With several Minnesota NT locations in Minnesota their restaurants also include with locations throughout Wisconsin ( I posted a while back on the Eau Claire location) and Omaha Tap House in Nebraska. They are also known for some of their massive Bloody Mary’s including the Breakfast Bloody - Bacon Washed vodka, house bloody mix, garnished with a classic NTH skewer, deviled egg, brown sugar bacon, candied bourbon chicken strip, waffle and a breakfast shot. Yousa! That’ll pick you up! I was here for lunch so no Bloody for this boy.

🍔Howard’s Cheeseburger🍔

Happy Belated New Year’s everyone. My final burger of 2023 was this bad boy from Two nicely seasoned patties, American cheese, caramelized onions, pickle chips, bibb lettuce, toasted bun and plenty of Howard’s sauce. The cheeseburger is $15 for a single or $18 as a double with choice of fries, tater tots, fruit, cole slaw or soup. I made it a double and went with their hand cut shoestring fries which are absolutely fantastic.

Located on Main Street in downtown Stillwater Howard’s was recently opened over the summer by Caroline Smith and Chef Adam To in the old Whitey’s Bar. This fun spot maintains a lot of its old characteristics which I really appreciate. It was a busy Saturday evening but we managed to grab a couple of spots at the bar and had great friendly service. Plenty of items on the menu I need to try next time like their Smoked Trout Dip, Calabrian Chili Hummus, White Chicken Chili, Sausage Lasagna, Meatloaf and Pork schnitzel to name a few. Head east my friends and enjoy the beautiful historic town of Stillwater and checkout Howard’s Bar.

🍔Toma Cheeseburger🍔

Happy Holidays everyone. Been a bit on the busy side of late but managed to visit for a late lunch last week. Ordered the cheeseburger (made it a double of course). As you can see from my pic the two smashed patties were seared nicely, seasoned well, cheddar cheese on both patties with lettuce, tomato and onion. I ordered it spicy which came with plenty of their piri aioli. A nice kick of heat boasting Mediterranean flavors which really sealed the deal for me. You might want to have a couple of extra napkins when you sink your teeth into this bad boy.

For $12.99 it comes with your choice of side. There’s plenty to choose from ranging from mac and cheese, a variety of salads to fried brussel sprouts. I went with their seasoned fries and brava sauce which I recommend as well. BTW, there are 10 different sauces on their menu to customize your order!

Locally owned and operated, Toma Mojo Grill has two locations in the Twin Cities (Richfield, Minnetonka). A fast casual style restaurant serving up Spanish and Portuguese inspired dished with plenty of bold flavors. This was my first visit and I’ll definitely be back with friends to try out more of their menu which includes a variety of chicken, pork and vegan dishes with plenty of fresh mediterranean flavors.
