Just to make sure I could not jump up on stage at "The Hard Nut" and join in la danse I went to 67 Burger some few paces away from BAM to have a burger, fries and a chocolate shake. And I am working the Lose It App. This was my daily take to be sure.
But what a great find. 67 Burger, if you are going to lose it over Lose It, is a great place to commit calorie crime. The burger was perfection.
I may have this wrong, but New York is way more obsessed with burgers than California. Way more into eating and talking about burgers. There seem to be burger places everywhere and it is the default choice at every diner in town. "Burger deluxe (lettuce, tomato, fries) please."
The ordering process was somewhat confusing even though they have a Steps 1, 2, 3 ordering system. But still it was not good. And the woman taking the order at the register was not pleasant. "Not pleasant" in the service business (aka "the USA") is just not acceptable. She was not interested. Just unpleasant. And I saw her be that way with others. I did not leave a tip in her jar just because of her "dourosity." Shame because the wait staff were great.
And that burger! Excellent. So charbroiled and excellent served just with a wheezy, gasping "Moo" as I like it. The milkshake (sadly the extra in the metal canister seems long gone) came in a generous pint class and was delish. And the fries (too many) were adequate, but for me fine, but unmemorable.
I would go back. I would eat a burger there again anytime But I think I need to wait for 35 pounds to go off my body. Perhaps I should walk to Brooklyn next time to go to 67 Burger.
Oh and they have that napkin dispenser on each table that operates like a tissue box and you use as many napkins as you would tissues crying over a breakup.

Ahhhh 67 Burger... I lived but 2 minutes from that esteemed purveyor of comestibles when I stayed in Brooklyn. Nestled in Fort Greene - or the BAM Cultural Quarter as it is likely to be re-named - it is a great venue. I'm getting quite nostalgic about Brooklyn...Thanks for the memory jog. Nice to see you back on the blog!
