The restaurant opened some 53 years ago, and Michael came aboard about 10 years later. He has overseen and maintained this old school-styled diner, and made it something worth trying. I indulge in a classic American cheese cheesburger, and delicious pumpkin pie. Later in the video Michael gives us a brief history of the restaurant. Hope you guys enjoy. Pie ‘n Burger 913 E.

The Boner Burger at Animal | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 23 Quincy Freeman15 June 201502 views Thrillist is where I learned of the Boner Burger at Animal after a friend of mine showed me the article. Upon tasting the burger, I was astonished with the impactful flavor, and basked in the glory of the dripping bone marrow fat and 420 sauce.

Apparently this was a huge deal to him as I read his article (http://www.thrillist.com/eat/los-angeles/mid-wilshire/animal-secret-off-menu-burger-best-la-restaurants). I could not help but be overcome with the same ecitement as Jeff, so I knew I had to try the only burger available at Animal, which is off-menu, and apparently not a well-kept secret. The burger packs a ton of flavor, and is very good. It is smaller than what I like but that does not take away from it's deliciousness.

Savage Burger at Oh My Burger L.A. | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 21 Quincy Freeman18 May 201501 views In the 21 episodes I have done so far, no burger has excited me more than the Savage Burger at Oh My Burger L.A. After I completed filming, I immediately called a friend in a moment of joy, happiness, and overwhelming amazement. SUBCRIBE!!! – http://www.youtube.com/subscription_center?add_user=Cuethecritic The Burger Crawl – http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL3Dju8d3K4jm2KnmuRSV7QsX3bkWHxbTZ https://www.instagram.com/cuethecritic | https://fb.me/cuethecritic Oh My Burger is an African American-owned restaurant in Gardena, CA. Owner and chef Brandyn Powell started the restaurant with his fiancee Danielle about 4 years ago. I had the pleasure of meeting them, and attempting their 6LB OMB Burger Challenge which I failed. At the time the place was very new, and chef Brandyn was very inexperienced. Coming back some years later, and trying them again has completely changed my very outspoken opinion. The Savage Burger is delicious, flavorful, and quite mindblowing. There is a voicemail to prove it if you want to hear it. To my subscribers, and new viewers if there is a burger place that I insist you must try in Los Angeles, it is Oh My Burger. To chef Brandyn and Danielle, I extremely proud of what you all have done, and from where you all have come. Keep up the good work, and I honestly believe you can attain the #2 spot in my burger world. Hodad’s is #1 and will be until further notice.

Roman Burger at Morels | The Burger Crawl – Ep. 20 Quincy Freeman13 May 201502 views Fine dining does not really say hamburgers when you hear it, but Morels French Steakhouse & Bistro would like to change that. Annually they have a BurgerFest; one year was 2 burgers, another 3, and this year is 5 mouthwatering burgers on a month-long exclusive menu. I tried them all, and the Roman was my favorite.

Where is the simple $6 burger or less? Don’t you preach against hipster bullsh*t all the time, you’re a hypocrite!” Okay maybe you’re not saying that and it is just my guilt, whatever. Morels French Steakhouse & Bistro at The Grove is upping their ante with delicious burgers that are good at the price point. Their patty is 8 ounces; I prefer mine medium rare or rare, and that makes all the difference. When ordering an expensive burger there are certain things you expect, like mindblowing goodness. Morels delivers, that is for sure. Happy Burger Month!
