for every oneI’m very worried about celebrating National Hamburger Day properly so that means no Cheese on my Burger today. Since its also the end of days, maybe a little rule bending is in order. What are you doing to celebrate?
Happy to hear that George Motz’s Burger Land will be returning to the Travel Channel in 2013 for 11 episodes. No word as of yet where exactly they’re filming but let’s keep our fingers crossed that Miami is chosen!
In case you missed the first 2 episodes of Burger Land, you can watch a few clips here. That should tide you over til’ the new ones come out.
BurgerFi continues its expansion with its 7th South Florida location in Hallandale Beach. It opens tomorrow Friday December 14th at 11AM. My suggestion? Have lunch at BurgerFi and then go watch the new Hobbit film. I’ll probably be doing the same.

The Palm Beach Wine & Food Festival is having their very own burger event, Burgers by the Beach. It’s taking place next Saturday December 8th at the Four Seasons Resort Palm Beach’s Poolside Terrace from 12:30 – 3:30PM.
Who will be serving up the grilled goodness? Food Network’s Robert Irvine and Jeff Mauro, Bravo’s “Top Chef” winner Kevin Sbraga and Fabio Viviani & Four Seasons’ Executive Chef Darryl Moiles. Each one has created a signature burger and I gotta be honest, right now I’m partial to Jeff Mauro’s “Paddy Melt of the Year“. I absolutely love Patty Melts (yes, they count as Burgers).
This is not a competition so you won’t be scrambling to sample each burger before you make your decision. You’ll be able to relax on the oceanfront terrace, sit back under an umbrella and eat. Hey, it’s Burgers by the Beach, what else did you think you would be doing. Check out the menu below.

I had joked earlier in the week that I was considering ordering some Burger King Delivery. It did not go over too well with some folks but I honestly wanted to try it. Then 2 days when I typed in my address there it was, confirmation that BK Delivery was available in my neighborhood. By the time I got around to ordering it was past their hours of operation (they shut down delivery at 10PM) and would have to wait one more day.
I finally decided yesterday was the day and implored via Twitter for someone to stop me:
Was I expecting the Burger King Delivery or BK Delivery as they’re calling it to change my thoughts on Fast Food? Absolutely not but I was interested in checking it out none the less.
It took 65 minutes after I placed the order online to receive my food. The driver’s vehicle had one of those delivery toppers on it and the food was in the usual, an insulated black bag. The Whopper was in the new container with “proprietary thermal packaging technology“.

ABC News correspondent Amy Robach did a blind Burger Taste Test with Food Network’s Alton Brown on 20/20. They tried out 5 burgers “from a $5 fast-food staple to a $295 gourmet burger“.
“My argument is that the actual price of a burger & ingredients of a burger does not define the satisfaction of a burger.” – Alton Brown
