Twenty Bucks a Day, our favorite low-budget gourmand, details a trip to California and his first visit to In-N-Out Burger: "Many burger fans I know swear by the venerable California mini-chain "In-N-Out Burger," claiming it to be the ultimate in ground meat sandwiches. Enough, in fact, that I became instantly skeptical -- I guess I just don't believe that a fast food restaurant could be both extraordinarily popular and very good."

I'm highlighting Mr. Bucks's trip because I'll be making a similar pilgrimage next week. The girlfriend's kid sister is all growed up and gradiatin' high school, and we're heading to sunny San Francisco to attend the ceremony.
I'll be making my first visit to In-N-Out, too, having only heard about its deliciousness via Hamburglar Hadley and other burger lovers. Needless to say, I'm stoked.
But what other burgers should I try? A coworker of mine recommends Absinthe and Zuni. And Burger Joint comes up on a lot of folks' Top 10 SF burger lists.
Readers: If you had only one other burger joint to hit in San Francisco besides In-N-Out, what would it be? Leave your suggestions in the comments. Thanks!
