I went to Dutch's Hamburgers today. I had heard that my first impression of their hamburger was wrong, that Dutch's had a hamburger that could be ranked with the best: Tommy's, Kinkaid's, Freds.
Well sorry folks, but I'll stick with the first impression and here's way: a good hamburger is juicy and tasty. Dutch's is neither.
On this my second visit to Dutch's, I received what is supposed to be a premium hamburger ($6.00 with no cheese) and it was pre-cooked, dry and almost tasteless. Hey Dutch, they've got this new seasoning out, it's called salt.
I mean this sincerely -- I would rather eat a hamburger at McDonald's, Wendys, or Whataburger. I think they taste better.
Regular readers know that I rarely criticize restaurants, but I am criticizing Dutch's because they are charging a premium price and delivering poor quality and all they need to do to improve is to deliver a freshly cooked burger. Stop pre-cooking!
And by the way, screw the "great onion rings" talk. I go to a place like Dutch's for the hamburger, the side dishes are secondary.
My hamburger was bone dry. Period. End of debate. I'm not going back.

Mayfest Cancelled?
Cartoon by Dave Granlund.
One could make a case that all times are considered strange by those living in them. But in my 56 years this year has to rank up there with the strangest.
GM and Chrysler going, or close to going, bankrupt.
Merrill Lynch, the very image of Wall Street investing -- gone, and now dragging buyer Bank of America with it.
Now this -- a possible flu epidemic closing Mayfest?
Wild and wacky it is, I tell you.
