So my wife and I are going to go out for a burger this weekend. We're torn between Cowbell and High Hat (Company Burger isn't in the cards for this one . . . we want more of a sit down dinner burger thang, yo).

Let's hear the arguments for the two options. Actually, if someone comes up with a different suggestion, I'm willing to listen (no Yo Mama's, Snug Harbor, etc.).

They are 1a and 1b for me so I would pick the place with the better cocktails / beer which is High Hat. The desserts there are usually pretty killer as well. Can't go wrong with either joint.

Well, no doubt she's better. But I think she's leaning toward Cowbell, but can be persuaded either way. It's a conundrum in the best sense.



Do they have conundrums in Shrevesville?

Just to demonstrate my self-respect, I'm having an Alzheimer's moment and can't think of what LPG means.

Okay. Laugh, motherfrickers. I don't care.

I agree with Z + Wise .. if y'all haven't had the burger @ LPG I'd hit that. Sit at the bar, order a cocktail have a great burger. It's got such a unique flavor. Only $16 bucks too.

Okay, I figured it out. Sorry about that.

Actually, I've had the burger at "LPG" once. It was really good. I also had that variation on a BLT, but can't recall the specifics. That was good, too.

Plus, it's within walking distance.

Goddammit. Decisions.

Zealot says the Cowbell Old Fashionedsis awful.

I like Cowbell's burger SLIIIIIIIGHTLY more than High Hat, but High Hat has an all-around better atmosphere. I'd probably do that. I always feel cramped at Cowbell.

LPG is definitely a dark horse candidate. If it's walking distance I could see where a fun evening could be had that way. Maybe get wild and take her to the 'Vous to throw back one or two after.

Hard to hold court when someone else is bossing you around, right?
