How was I supposed to know that a post in my little blog would somehow trackback to a New York City burger review site. The Internet sure is a wacky place. Wichita, along with being the birthplace of White Castle and the modern hamburger, still knows how to make a good burger, many with chopped dill pickle relish and fried onions. Even the loose-meat burger at NuWay (several locations) are worth the trip, especially the original one on west Douglas.
Sorry about wine-sipping Gotham pigs thing -- I'm a little protective about the "birthplace of the burger" thing. I feel bad about it, but I never go back and self-edit an entry.
Hey: No offense taken. We've been called worse! And thanks for the recommendations.
Here's a thread from LTHForum (Chicago-based food forum) about Wichita that you might like, includes some tasty burger pics (by me, I admit): http://www.lthforum.com/bb/viewtopic.php?t=40
Thanks, Mike. Those pix and recommendations look great. I'm really looking forward to Christmas in Wichita! And, oh ... Bionic Burger. THAT was the one I was trying to remember. Thanks. Sorry to hear it has fallen off a bit. --Adam
I am a native Wichitan who moved to New York City. Although NY has so much to offer, it is missing the amazing NUWAY crumbly burger made in WICHITA Kansas. If you are a New Yorker, or from anywhere else in the world, and you find yourself in Wichita, Kansas, I highly encourage you to stop by NUWAY for the best burger you will ever have! And don't forget the fresh curly fries to go with it.
