Mike’s Burger Atlas/Blog

Everybody loves an old fashioned hamburger or sometimes simply called”Burger” and every community has its very own favorite “Burger Joint”.These “Burger Joints” range from mom and pop to national chain operations. Regardless of corporate structure they all claim to serve the”Best Burger in Town”. How and who determines what makes a burger the”Best” is still a big mystery to this traveler.

I am a self-appointed expert on the subject of “Burger Joints” just as I am about wine. I like it or I don’t!

Since I live a rather nomadic life, it affords me the opportunity to experience the many “Burger Joints” throughout the land. I have defined,for the purpose of this atlas/blog, a “Burger Joint” as an establishment that serves hamburgers and usually is accompanied with French fries or chips.I have made no attempt to develop any type of statistical assessment model such as the number of napkins it takes to eat the “Burger”, nor will you find little stars or monetary symbols signifying the establishments placement on any list.

The “Burger Joints” pictured in this atlas/blog qualified to be included based on two factors: my judgment and would I recommend it to my closest friend.
