Well now, I’ve never seen anything quite like that. This is how you turn a Wendy’s Baconator into, well, something a little more interesting (pssh, yeah, speak for yourself).
If my research is correct there’s a burger war out there people! No, not in the streets of Fallujah or the glorious nation of Kazakhstan, but right here in our very own backyard (the notoriously rough burger corridors of West Los Angeles).
I just read this burger breaking news on LA Weekly’s Squid Ink which highlights The Foundry’s call for the Father’s Office’s head. Signs declaring burger war were written in blood-red ketchup and posted on the doors of both FO locations last night.

Reading over this burger on burger violence coincides perfectly with the rapper on rapper warfare I heard about just this morning on NPR. Essentially, the piece contends that new rappers to the game often go after well established rappers in an effort to claim fame.
I believe that the guy on the far right is eating a burger
Although I’ve been due for a visit for way too long – I’ve never had the Foundry burger (and as I’ve mentioned before the Father’s Office is a highly controversial burger here at Hambur.gr) but I can tell you that Mr. Greenspan (the Foundry’s owner/chef) better not be dropping any “Mission Accomplished” banners prematurely.

While certainly not a newcomer to the restaurant blogging scene, Grubstreet did just enter the LA market and published this somewhat controversial slideshow of LA’s best burgers last week. I love going through all of the comments and reading the furor behind the obvious lack of perennial LA favorite: Father’s Office (an extremely controversial burger here at Hambur.gr as well).
Personally, I’m going to have to go with Krusty Burger on this one…although a special runner up trophy might need to be awarded to The Lanford Lunch Box simply because (after several late night brewskis) revrev once confessed his secret childhood crush on Roseanne to me.
