Look out! There's a tough-talkin' new Turk on the burger bloggin' scene, and, unfortunately, he doesn't work for A Hamburger Today. No siree: Mister Hamburger is affiliated with a blog called Two-Twenty.
Mister Hamburger, whose hat we like, began his mission early this month, and the dude is on a tear. Given the number of entries he's posted already, he must eat burgers for lunch and dinnerand breakfast. He is bombastic, hates California and its inhabitants, and pulls no punches. (Typical banter, this about In-N-Out: "Weirdo californians on too much prozac serving. Friendly and quick. Food took 20 minutes to be cooked though which was not fast. Like French fast food which isn't fast at all.")
We predict some serious East CoastWest Coast shit between him and Hamburglar Hadley.
I have just started reading your blog. I searched and found that you have already mentioned the best hamburger in the world "Five Guys Burgers and Fries"
I have to wonder if this burger beeatch has ever been to In-N-Out. "Weirdo californians on too much prozac serving?" Have you ever heard of a complete sentence? In-N-Out is staffed mostly by wonderful Californians of Mexican descent, the hardest-working people I know. Although, yes, they are able to treat people with kindness, dignity and respect, and hide their whiny BS, unlike so many East Coasters who think they have to front so hard to be "real," I imagine their low salaries do not afford them Prozac. It's time people put a stop to all this stereotyping of California, it's a great state, and those who don't get it never will, and I feel sorry for them. Enjoy your frou-frou burgers out east!
You're all a bunch of snivelling little west coast poofters. Maybe if you were not subsidising your agents/managers/hair stylists/yogis and back, crack and sack waxers or whetever the fuck else you little turds over there do, then you'd have the time and money to put some fois gras on a hamburger every once in a while.
Mister Hamburger is not an out of work writer by trade like you losers. He just loves to eat hamburgers. And the service at In-n-Out fuckin sucked, except Mister Hamburger still loved it. Mister Hamburger was served by a bunch of blonde little Brad Pitt/Brittney spears wanna bes, no Mexicans in sight. And besides, I worked at McDonalds for years and years...
Can't comment on the East Coast/West Coast battle since I'm from the South and it's a whole other world down here... but I have to agree with Reid. AHT will remain my burger blog of choice. It's much nicer looking anyway. And it has Hadley ^_^
I didn't mind Mister Hamburger's page and enjoyed some of his ranting. I dug his rating scale and categories, too, but I like AHT better. There's more content. Also Mr. H talked about benchmark burgers in Melbourne. If he's talking about Victoria and not Florida then that's a little worrisome. Many of the burgers I found in Oz were beef mixed with mutton! Yuck!!
I talked SO MUCH SHIT to Mr. Hamburger (who had emailed me out of the blue saying I and my city suck) that it was completely unprintable in AHT. He was too chickensheeit to write back apparently. That being done, I respect his ratings system and think we shouldn't be engaging in this Least, I mean, East Coast-Best Coast tribalism. We are brothers in burgers and brothers in life, and I would gladly show him the better parts of L.A. next time he is forced to be out here. Peace n' love!!

Hi Adam,
I just had a look at their site, and really, there's no competition at all. You're gourmet to their chopped liver.
