Alison Cook of the Houston Chronicle reviews burgers every Friday in her food blog, Cook's Tour. She points out the good, the bad, the prices, the meat quality, and the overall experiences of each burger joint, accompanied by plenty of photos. Houstoners should have no problem finding a good burger with six months of posts to sift through.

Cook's latest review awards Sparkle's Hamburger Spot with an "A" grade for its cheap, well-seasoned, made-to-order burgers, steak fries, wide-cut onion rings, and thick milkshakes. She points out the chili cheeseburger, describing it as "nothing short of awesome." [Tip 'o the hat to: Preston C.]

Had a sparkle burg the other day... execution slow, but final product amazing. Thier bacon is thick cut, mapley, and off the hook! There was a couple of locals sitting near waiting for thier burgs expressing thier appreciation of the hand formed patties. An art thats becoming lost in the Third Ward, apparently.... I will be back...but I took the number to call ahead!
