I think she means it's important enough for a new thread. It's hard to beat a golden brown crinkle-cut fry.

Atlantis Fish and Chips had the best burger AND fries on 30-A but they closed.

you are so right about Atlantis Fish and Chips!!! why did they have to go away?

 

[Teresa]

It's not on 30a, but it's close - Cafe 331 for lunch has great cheeseburgers, and if you fell like some extra grease, go for the onion rings instead of the fries. Really, really great. Throw in that great view of the bay from that wonderfully funky dining room and then go home and take a nap.

yes, I totally agree with this review!

Oh, no. You've finally given in to Daddy-O's brainwashing.
Actually, I'm proud of how well you've resisted, considering the odds weren't with you!

Actually, Percy, I believe a good french fry is deserving of its very own thread, if not forum!!!

Hopefully better than the Red Bar. The beef is probably the same as the Red Bar though which is unimpressive.

Forget the Red Bar - they just throw 'em together and I've even had cold burgers and old fries come to the table. :roll:

Snapperhead's is popular because it's big and sloppy and they season the heck out of their meat. But they are just covering mediocrity.

Smiling Fish has some quality beef.

Anybody seen the documentary on IFC about hamburger joints? They go all over the country - to Chicago where the SNL cheeburger skit came from and to one place that deep fries their meat. Another place that steams theirs.

In the 70's Akroyd, Belushi, and Murray did a takeoff on the Chicago landmark Billygoat Tavern by Wrigley field, complete with the goat curse. Cheeborger, cheeborger, cheeborger, cheeborger, no pepsi, coke.

We like burgers at Red Bar and Shades. Unfortunately, Red Bar doesn't serve them at dinner. But that's cool, because some of us have agreed on other posts that a big burger and fries at lunch is a good cure for a hangover. It always worked when we lived in NOLA as undergrads. Still works when our sunset parties at SoWal get elongated. :funn:
