I did the Fear the Reaper Burger. I can't say I really cared for it.

I’ve been once and had the Boog Mac. It was great as usual.

I was hoping there might be the hole in the wall type places that seem to be more prevalent in other parts of the city. Did the old Symons Valley market have anything? I miss having Wayne’s Bagels and P&S coffee so close. Hope it opens up again soon.
Boardwalk is truly awful. Perhaps the worst in the city.

The fried-cheese burger is a marvel of flavor and architecture

https://thetakeout.com/the-fried-che...content=Supper

I grew up in Manchester, Connecticut, around the corner from Shady Glen, a former dairy farm that’s become a local institution. Established in 1948, the restaurant is acclaimed for its ice cream and minestrone soup, but what earned them national recognition and a nod from the James Beard Foundation is their gravity-defying cheeseburger, immediately identifiable by the crispy cheese slices that frame the meat like an asymmetrical halo.

White Castle is apparently the first major fast-food chain to now feature the Impossible Burger.

Boogies has the "Beyond" burger. I haven't tried it but I'm curious to see how it compares to beef.

Thanks to Nicker for telling me about the Jucy Lucy in Minneapolis:

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jucy_Lucy

Quote:
A Jucy Lucy or "Juicy Luicy" is a cheeseburger with cheese inside the meat instead of on top, resulting in a melted core of cheese. Two bars in Minneapolis claim to be the inventor of the burger, though other bars and restaurants have created their own interpretations on the style.

The burger is prepared by putting cheese between two patties of meat, then sealing both patties around the cheese to create a single patty with a cheese core. As the burger cooks, the cheese inside melts. This has the effect of keeping the meat near the center of the burger very juicy. It also separates the cheese from the bun, resulting in a slightly different texture than the usual cheeseburger. Normal burger toppings such as condiments, onions and pickles can also be added.

White Castle is the perfect solution to the problem: "I need to turn my ####### inside out in the quickest way possible, what do I do?"

I've never eaten at White Castle and looking at those burgers I certainly don't get the hype as they look like the kind of thing you find sitting under a heat lamp at 7-11.
