Grüner, September 7th

Well, we did it again. Mr. Goods will fearlessly led us into Grüner for the first burger of September. We got to kick it at the big back table, down some delicious doppelbock and destroy some of the juiciest, most bad-ass burgers any of us had chowed in sometime.

Here's the verdict:
Pro's: One word: "Speechless." Super juicy patty. ("Well proportioned.") Crispy, golden potato bun. ("Good tooth.") The bacon fans were jumping for joy. ("Phenomenal") Intriguingly stimulating condiments.

Con: Couldn't taste the cheese. ("Fontina, Chedda? Doesn't madda.") Perhaps a tad over seasoned. ("Better to go to over than under.")

Atmosphere: Awesome smashed potato fries, satisfying beer list. Great staff that accommodated our burger demanding crew. (You can't get the burger in the main dinning room.)

Overall Rating: An astronomical - gastronomical 8.5/10 on our scale.

Overall Consensus: The bar has been set...and set high by Grüner.

Blue Hour, August 19th **6PM**

Seven and a half of us rolled into the Blue Hour to see if their burger was as snappy as Mr. Tee's vintage threads. Suspiciously, Mr. Tee was know where to be found....

Here's the verdict:
Pro's: Perfectly seasoned meat. Delicious garnishes ("Best thing on the plate.") The bacon fans were excited to see that as a standard and not an option.

Con: The bun, the bun, and even more bun. ("I only taste bread." "My burger got lost.") Cheese? ("I see it, but I can't taste it.") We had to pay full price $12.

Atmosphere: Awesome fries, stuffy interior, lacking beer list ("No low cost option"). They did manage to accommodate our somewhat wieldy crowd, but at a $7 premium on the price of the burger.

Overall Rating: A weak 5/10 on our scale.

Overall Consensus: Blue Hour is NOT a burger place.
