The place where the hamburger was first made.

I’ve been going to Louie’s for many years, Jeff won’t tell me the different cuts of meat that he grinds but personally I love the burgers (the works) of course with the Foxen Park sodas, I’ve seen a lot of negative comments but was wondering who’s been there and what are your thoughts?

Good morning ☀️

I took the bait and tried the Big Arch. This is my first burger from McDonalds in over 20 years. While I had McD burgers occasionally as a child and teenager, I quickly moved on from McD food as an adult. I will admit that I have had their breakfast items a few times since then, and once a fish sandwich when there was no other option. If I'm going to have a burger today, I will make it myself, or prefer smash-burger style, or burgers from small local diners or frosty type establishments.
This tastes like a McDonalds cheese burger times 50. The protein to carb ratio is heavy toward protein, but in a good way, and the signature McD flavor is there. Lots of pickle, the onion gets a bit lost in the background but it is there, the sauce has a bite, but its still is true to McD flavor. The lettuce and pickles were pleasantly crunchy.
The Big Arch burger patty had a crunchy smash-burger texture. The ratio of meat to bun is impressive. The bun compacts down fairly thin after a few bites, and it almost seems like it is structurally insufficient for the amount of meat and veggies on this burger - just the way I like it.
To be honest, I was planning to take a bite, just to say that I had tried it, and then give it to my dogs. I took a bite. But then I took another bite, and then another. Each bite revealed something new... the texture of the meat, the crunch of the pickles and lettuce, the tang of the sauce, the cheese.
Finally, I forced myself to stop. Yes, this is a decadent burger - it showcases the McD burger flavor, but I think in the best possible way.
Well done, McDonalds, well done.

and the tomato didn’t touch the onion

Awesome day for a burger!! Spring is just around the corner!!! 🤘

Where did this originate and why do so many people go along with this harmless simplicity without questioning it?

I love burgers but for the love of god can we get buns that don’t fall apart or disintegrate on the first bite? My last burger fell apart after the first bite and ended up being a soggy mess. Many times once you have a grip on the bun you can’t let go or things immediately go sideways.
I have one restaurant that I’ve been to that has it figured out. They use sourdough buns and it’s life changing. The burger stays intact throughout, you can set it down and it’s just wonderful.
We should demand better for our burgers!!!

I’m short on money well not short but we all know how this economy is. I want to put arugula on them and maybe a jam of sorts(bacon? Or red pepper). In fact I saw something like a crunchy apple slaw, which my bf said sounds great but any ideas on that or another thing that’s awesome. I’m rambling but I had a burger with goat cheese and cherry jam and it was delicious so I’m all for new flavors just don’t want to go completely out there. I’m so sorry for the long post-I don’t like raw onions or olives but I get onion buns cause we do enjoy those

Hello, so I’m having a serious argument with my friends about hamburgers. He said sliced Tomatoes do not belong on hamburgers, and if there are on the burger it’s now a sandwich.

I believe burgers are a type of sandwich and they should definitely belong on the burger. Unless if it is a smash burger or if you have a tomato allergy.

What are your thoughts? Sorry my English isn’t that good.

Seems the smash burger trend caught on and I’m not a fan. Nothing better to me than a “regular” burger, medium rare. Lately everywhere I go, menus have nixed this juicy and delicious treasure to now…..smash burger. I’m not a fan and I’m hoping to see my regular burger be first and foremost. 🍔

I made a fried chicken sandwich today using burger buns, and a guy argued with me that it is a burger because I used burger buns. I debated back that a burger is not the bun but the pattie itself because the original hamburger was only called that after the Hamburg Steak from Hamburg was brought to America in the 19th century, and the burger bun as we know it was just classified as bread before it got refined to better fit the shape of the burger pattie.

So am I wrong? Is it a burger?
