When you look at the pure raw numbers it is clear which Burger place won our taste test. Stack House Burger Bar came in with a solid 9.75/10. 4 of us were there to judge their burgers officially. However when we sent some of the other Wolfies there to eat their burgers unofficially, they didn’t come up with quite the same numbers we did officially and when it came down to having our officially official winners meeting one name kept coming up as the place we all wanted to go back to.
Wolfgang is proud to announce the winner of our Burger Fridays: Romer’s Burger Bar! As Kevin first said in his review “There was much anticipation for Romer's as it was Heinrich's recommendation.” Did they woo us with their delicious, drunken/dunking mini donuts? Well… to be honest… yes… BUT, their burgers also speak for themselves. Great quality food from bun to bun. We all decided to not stick to The Standard burger and celebrate Romer’s at it’s finest. This time around I had their portabella mushroom stack and a watermelon/feta salad and those were fantastic without the meat, so even when they aren’t making meat they’re making it well (see delicious mini droughts). We have some video that is in the process of being edited and glamorized up from our final trip to Romer’s that we will put up soon but for now all we can do is recommend eating at Romer’s right away as they have, in our opinion, the best burgers in the city. Well done Romer’s!
Where will our next FridayFoodVenture occur? There has been some talk around the office including Pizza, Sushi, and Street Vendors (gotta say I think the last one is going to be our next FoodFriday as there are just waaaaaaaaaayyyy too many of the first two, and the last one is just plain in fashion right now).
Other honorable mentions include Splitz Grill for having a beautifully seasoned patty (and for my own personal hometown connection); Burger Heaven, for the real greasy spoon feel; Moderne Burger for that delicious diner taste; Burgers Etc for their BBQ sauce and meat (and we all agree that if we went back there it would probably receive a higher score than what we initially gave them); and Stack House Burger Bar, but I already talked about them.
