Got free tickets to the Cardinals/Brewers game and took the kids (thanks McGurk’s and Soulard School!).
The concession stand totally messed up our order so I hacked the kids’ burgers and ended up with and extra patty, and my double became a triple. Baseball!

From the Tin Can‘s menu: “We take our Grilled Cheese with its 6 slices of cheese, our BLT with its 4 slices of bacon and toss a 5 oz. burger in the middle. Um, yeah. You know you want one.”

Despite the totally crappy iPhone photo, this veggie burger is FREAKING AWESOME.
In STL? Hit the Bleeding Deacon.

I almost felt like I was cheating on The Eat-Rite Diner by going here. But, just as the Eat-Rite was a block away from the old XPLANE | Dachis Group office — The White Knight is a block away from the new one.
I doubled up and order a cheeseburger *and* a grilled cheese. Good diner food. I just wish they had pie.

This is a big-time delicious Mediterranean-style burger (called the Lola Burger) from Lola in downtown St. Louis.
It’s got lamb, bacon, Feta, tomatoes, cucumber, red onions and olive tapenade.
Those fries are great too — all covered in spices, green onions and shaved cheese.

OK.
Well.
Much ado about nothing this is. It’s called the “Luther,” the “World’s Greatest Burger,” etc… Often, you just call 911.
Because it’s a deep-fried Krispy Kreme donut bacon cheeseburger.
Technically. But in reality it’s a pre-prepared, foil-wrapped, thin, unholdable oily thing.
That said, I had to try it while we were at the Gateway Grizzlies independent league baseball game in Sauget, Illinois.
