Whataburger- San Marcos; Exit 200

Posted May 5th @ 9:40 am by thedeathkid

Whataburger is a regional chain in the south that boasts there are 36,834 different ways that they are prepared to fix your burger. They’ll add bacon, two slices of cheese, pickles, etc etc. This may just be an urban legend but supposedly you can get chicken, bacon, and two patties wedged in between those five inch buns. I have no evidence and it sounds too crazy to attempt. I went for the specialty burger when i went to Whataburger on a nice Texas night. The barbecue cheddar burger was not that special though. Shredded cheddar on top of babecue sauce finished with pickles did give it a brisket feel. But it was almost a feeble attempt at something exciting and new on the menu. Give me an onion ring inbetween those buns and maybe we’ll talk business. Although it was filling it wasn’t anything to write home to mom about. The burgers there often have the feel of going on for miles, which is always a nice challenge to finish. As a kid though I couldn’t stand the place. They have a habit of drenching their burgers in mustard, so if you’re not that kinda’ person, better say, “easy to no mustard buster!” That’ll take care of them good.Most whataburgers are twenty-four hour establishments and they’ve just added breakfast to their menu within the past year. It’s all pretty delicious actually, I just had a bad run in. Make sure to order a shake while you’re ther. They make them pretty thick but sooooooooo GOOD! Here’s the address, I hope to see you there:

His Cheeseburger- Veggie Tales

Posted May 2nd @ 9:09 am by thedeathkid

I used to have to watch Veggie Tales during the summer when I was babysitting littl’uns. If this episode existed back then I don’t think I’d have had such an annoyance too it. One small suggestion: put the bacon and the egg in the cheeseburger! Other than that, burgers flying around my face with a pink hearts back drop is every dream I’ve ever had.

Sonic Drive-In San Marcos, TX

Pythagoras is an ancient human philosopher that believed the world was governed by equations. Though some of his philosophical point of views fell to shambles he is survived by the delicious burger theorem. This theorem states that when bacon meets burger with b-b-q sauce at the precise moment that onion ring arrives at the point of origin the resultant is crazy delicious. That is why ordering the Bacon Cheeseburger Toaster at Sonic is going to make you very happy. It’s a single meat, bacon, dill pickle, onion, lettuce, tomato, cheese, an Onion Ring & hickory BBQ sauce concoction that does more justice to Pythagoras than that silly Pythagorean Theorem ever did. All those delicious ingredients are placed in between Texas toast for a bit of a backyard barbeque feel. This burger ranks on the meter as ultra-tasty. The meat has its fast-food ground beef taste, but it’s definitely better than oh say Wendy’s or McDonald’s. With those burgers they’ll usually sit in your belly pretty heavily until you think you are going to forever be congealed human meat glub. Sonic might have a slightly higher quality of meat because this burger made me happy.

Sonic Drive-In is a pretty big staple in the Texas community. It definitely turned into a hang-out in high school because of their large array of fountain drinks, shakes, malts, coneys, tots, burgers, and other Americana favorites. It’s definitely a quick, good meal that moves at “sonic” speed. The quality and price is a pretty good pair that keeps me returning. Plus, it’s a little fun to see the carhops running and sometimes skating or rollerblading around. So, go on burger-lover! Get some Sonic-love.

Saltgrass was and will always probably be delicious. They have this honey mustard, yeah i said it, that will make you want to be in porns for the rest of your life. The chicken was juicy, the greens were oh- so - FRESH, and the bacon ahhhhhhhhh, the bacon. My muy deliciouso devil of a mistress. Listen guys, I need you to get in a car go to Saltgrass and stuff yo’ face. If this chicken-bacon-honey mustard minx is any indicator of the flavor Saltgrass has, then I want to call it FLAVA’ fo’ sho’! I’ll admit I had my doubts when I saw the small burger selection, but my mouth cannot deny the extreme pleasure it experienced. Go to Saltgrass, OR ELSE.

Cafe on the Square

Posted February 23rd @ 7:43 pm by thedeathkid

cafe-on-the-square.JPGThe greens were crisp. The patty was a little burnt. The bacon…DRY! The only burger on the Cafe on the Square’s menu was a “build your own” with everything on the side. That’ already a signal, effort much? I personally have nothing really against the “build your own” in the sense that it grants you the comfort of being picky with out driving your waitress crazy. “Mayo on the side, easy lettuce, no onions, no mustard, extra pickles…” I’ve been there, it’s not fun. Conversely, if I’m gonna make my own burger why didn’t I just stay at home? What’s the deal here Cafe on the Square? In there defense, burgers don’t seem to be or desire to be the focus of the menu. I’m not demanding a signature end all of end all beta series burger, but if you’re gonna offer something up at least make it worthy of your caliber and my dollar. The service was good and the location on the historic downtown district of San Marcos across from the courthouse does make for a fresh scene. If you find yourself at the ol’ cafe I’d say steer clear of the cheeseburger, save it for a cafe that cares. Alas, as the doublecheeseblogger I shan’t be returning.

The Malt House

Posted February 17th @ 3:43 pm by thedeathkid

malt house It all started here. It was always with my dad at the end of a long day and we were all starved. The Malt House has been open for 50 years and has perfected the art of a cheeseburger. The grum of the place, the waitresses who care just enough, shakes, malts, and a juke box all make the burger what it is. For my birthday dinners I only wanted to go one place. My graduation dinner was celebrated here. Whenever I come home from college, the Malt House is a priority visit. I am the doublecheeseblogger and I’m in love with cheeseburgers. It’s my mission to inform you of great burgers and where to get them.

With all that said, this delectable baby may not look like much but tastes like right! The Jumbo Cheese Burger hits the spot with two slices of cheese (perfectly melted on the double patty every time), lettuce, tomato, mayo, and mustard (I opt to hold the mustard). The Jumbo Cheeseburger lives within the less is more mantra, no tricks here, no fancy seasoning; a modest but more than adequate burger. Comes with fries, a drink, and chips and salsa for a very comfortable $5.94, the burger alone $2.79! The establishment has become a staple in the community, “I’m in my mid 30’s and grew up going to Malt House. My family grew up in the West Side and the Malt House has always been a place to meet,” says byrdgonzales . They still carry on the car-hop tradition and on some nights you can get an authentic mariachi band to sing for you.

When I go to the Malt House it reminds me of the good times. Here’s the address: 115 S Zarzamora St, San Antonio, TX 78207-3761
