Went on an afternoon of burger tasting yesterday… read more about it in next Wednesday’s food section. My favorite was from Alex’s Tavern on Jackson, fried up in an old skillet by a man who’s been cooking there since the 1950s…
It was everything that a burger should be, juicy, well-seasoned and served by the cook/bartender named Sonny. We were the only customers, beating the lunch rush at this neighborhood venue.
After stops at four burger spots, I still managed to squeeze in some dinner last night!
Let's eat

I’ve heard that Alex’s Tavern has an awesome burger but I’ve yet to try it. I really like the burgers at TJ Mulligans, and the simple yet delicious burgers at the Two Way in Midtown (at least I can watch ‘em being prepared). I only eat red meat a couple of times a month, by choice, so I hold out for the best burgers!!

Glad to hear that you made it over to the Tavern for a “Greek Burger.” It’s one of my favorite watering holes and burger joints in the city.
