The nice-looking burger is from JG Melon. It's a straightforward pub burger. Very consistent, always delicious. It's one of my favorite burgers in NYC. In no particular order:
1. JG Melon
2. Corner Bistro
3. Keen's Chophouse (at the bar)
4. Donovan's (Queens)
5. Peter Luger's (lunch only)

TGI Fridays was where I first had loaded potato skins. Awesome! Not so much anymore. A bit of trivia: the original TGI Fridays was a notorious singles bar on the Upper East Side of Manhattan. Them and Maxwell's Plum were THE place to be when looking for action in the 70s. Then it was bought out by Restaurant Associates and slowly morphed into what it has become.

That's the way to do it. A good mix of beef - I like a blend of ground short ribs, chuck and brisket - course salt and cracked pepper. Seared over the high heat of a grill or cast iron skillet. One of life's simple pleasures!

To be fair that McDonald's burger is not on their Dollar Menu.
