There are tons of places in this town where you can pay the same price for much, much better burgers.<br /><br />The Wildlife Waystation? My brother volunteered there a few years back.<br /><br />I'm not a chef by any means and I'm not familiar with the sausage, but the two things that spring to mind immediately are 1) cook them with lemon-butter and eat with some kind of vegetable like spinach or roasted potatoes, or 2) put them in a quesadilla with a corn/jalapeno/cilantro salad and a VERY mild cheese (so as not to interfere with the flavors of the other stuff.) <br /><br />I am sure we're going to Trader Joe's this weekend; maybe I'll get a pack and see if I am inspired when I read the ingredients.JustinMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976061296214532098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-30829563659719868842010-04-24T01:07:52.986-04:002010-04-24T01:07:52.986-04:00Sorry your experience was a bad one, I went to the...Sorry your experience was a bad one, I went to the Angel's opener game and detoured to Pasadena to try Slaw Dogs...loved it! Got the Thai inspired one, I am a bit sad that I am to far to go back, that traffic was way to horrendous for me to venture out for a weekday game. <br /><br />I recently volunteered at a wildlife refuge and ran into a couple who loved Slaw Dogs...the guy's name is Kevin and says that he goes there so much you can get your burger "Kevin" style. I dont remember exactly what all was in it but it involved spicy cheese and jalapeno bacon.<br /><br />If you haven't already picked up a pack and made something with it, try Trader Joe's seafood sausage. I haven't made mine yet, I need an inspired way to cook it --- would you have any ideas?<br /><br />Keep up the great blogging!o0angie0ohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03718519012473996856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-54097681362632388152010-04-23T21:20:41.004-04:002010-04-23T21:20:41.004-04:00Woah, that sounds more interesting than Hamburger ...Woah, that sounds more interesting than Hamburger Hamlet!Mikeynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-56681385834300738892010-04-23T20:12:08.023-04:002010-04-23T20:12:08.023-04:00I once had a very drunk dude in Ensenada try to ge...I once had a very drunk dude in Ensenada try to get me to go to the beach with him for some "pee pee on the playa." I have no idea what that meant so I declined, rather forcefully.

Nothing spectacular, but far better than I would have expected at a place that - as the Two Guys pointed out above - is past its prime.JustinMhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01976061296214532098noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-54629939376649538382010-04-23T14:11:37.167-04:002010-04-23T14:11:37.167-04:00hey PP- how were the fries? they look good.hey PP- how were the fries? they look good.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-319445054584013211.post-39871216025884759062010-04-23T13:20:41.515-04:002010-04-23T13:20:41.515-04:00Sadly, your conclusion at the last line is correct...Sadly, your conclusion at the last line is correct. Hamburger Hamlet is in the same league as IHOP and Sizzler -- they need to just close and be a part of history. Had some great times there but with (1) all the other food choices in town and (2) their apparent inability to keep pace with the proverbial times, there really is no excuse to visit.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
