Okay, okay, we know, you don't need to remind us (we are sensitive about our largesse), we're in shape - round, round is technically a shape. We cannot help ourselves at all, will power schmill power, who needs it? There is one perfect food, a luscious bundling of all of the food groups. The burger, the tasty, juicy cheesy with bacon and all of the veggies and a schmear of mustard and a double-schmear of mayonnaise burger with some kind of side. Note: we did not say "onion rings or french fries" because the place we are reviewing gots no fried sides. Never fear, Bubba's Texas Burger Shack may not have the room for a fryer (and one of those countertop units like you can buy at the whatevahmart would never keep up) but do not let that deter you. Located under the new Westpark Tollway, whose construction they survived by the skin of their teeth, in a smallish and very eclectic shack is the home of the best buffalo burger we have ever wrapped our lips around. We have wrapped our lips around a lot of, well, burgers.

To heck with that resolution to be thinner - we are embracing our inner grease-lover, you know, the one who firmly believes that cheese is a food group and will eat cardboard if it comes covered in cream gravy. Yes, that one, the "believer in spandex britches". So, we are back on our "burger thing" and will be telling you all about good burgers, mediocre burgers and possibly bad ones (hey, if it's gross AND gucci, we will attempt to prevent you from wasting your coin). To that end, here's the first burger scoop of the year it also happens to be a "double bonus" report. Meaning, you get to have a seriously tasty burger and some tots, rings or fries, score some ice cold beer or cocktails (there is a full bar) AND bowl a few games. It's all the makings of a near perfect evening of entertainment in one convenient building located just slightly ITL (In The Loop) at Palace Lanes.

Spring is when we get busy here in the Ist-A-Verse. Very busy. But, after staying bundled-up indoors all winter, it's nice for us to be out, about, and collecting things to write about for you. Here's a glimpse at what's been keeping your favorite citybloggers busily away from home and out of bed. For LAist, strong winds attacked LA on the same day the Feds raided the Crips. Not to fear, though: the Japanese version...

Big news in Houston this weekend: the Blessed Virgin Mary, that holy trickster known for showing up in all sorts of unexpected places, chose to make an appearance on a pizza pan in a local elementary school kitchen. It happened on Ash Wednesday when Guadalupe Rodriguez, a cafeteria worker at Pugh Elementary, was washing the pizza pan in question and noticed a stubborn stain. "On the third rinse I started watching it, trying to discover...

The first in our series of Mom & Pop burger joint reviews takes us to Annie's Hamburgers, 10821 S. Post Oak Road. We tried the bacon cheeseburger (dragged through the garden, of course) and an order of onion rings. And we weren't disappointed! The burger was hot, juicy and fresh, cooked over a gas flame — a similar method to some fast-food restaurants. The bacon topping the gently melted American cheese was thick and crispy,...

DCist is screwed in the event of an oil crisis. Not that we're not all screwed in the event of an oil crisis, just D.C. is more screwed. Don't sell your car yet, District resident, a cabbie can kick you to the curb if he doesn't like your address. Not even Metro can save you now.
