A few hours ago I ate a most delicious hamburger

I think I missed the allure of bonnie’s. It was cooked to temp, but it had way too much black pepper and way to little salt. They seemed focussed on the char flavor, but in the process totally missed the mark on conveying the beefiness of a hamburger.
I agree the Bonnie’s burger is damn good. I have two suprising suggestions for you though for other great burgers – both are – GASP! – on seventh avenue! One is the Grand Canyon diner and the other is Santa Fe. Yes, Santa Fe, the Mexican place on Lincoln and 7th. I ordered a burger there once and was floored. I actually thought it was better than Bonnies and one of the best I’ve had. I will say though – that the last time I was there it wasn’t as good – but I’m definately going to try again.
i live in greenwich village and i recently took a job in downtown brooklyn — i am always at a loss for place i can go after work or for lunch — i guess i will try this burger joint “stone grill” thanks. and by the way — after the cheese, beef, bacon, i am shocked you survived to write this entry.
Although it’s not technically Park Slope, the burger at BEAST, on Vanderbilt and Bergen in Prospect Heights, is like a mini mouth orgasm. Not Exaggerating! Unbelievably good. {ps. no affiliation with Beast}
Did you say juicy burger? I think me and kathy have to try that out! :)
