Burgers are making the menu at fine-dining establishments | Biloxi Sun Herald

This week in this blog, I’m sharing some of my favorite images taken while on assignments.

Tough job that it is, I sure enjoy working in restaurants and talking to chefs and restaurateurs.

I have managed to collect quite a few images over the years, and I have a folder where I keep my favorites. All the images this week were taken from that well-worn folder.

If you are a friend of mine you know I have a great fondness, some might say weakness, for cheeseburgers.

Call me Wimpy, I don’t care, but a good cheeseburger is hard to beat. I had a great one at thirty-two not too long ago, the fine-dining restaurant at the IP Casino Resort & Spa, and I also had another great one at Soigne, another fine-dining restaurant that is making quite a stir in Ocean Springs.

Burgers aren’t just found at burger joints any more.

This is a picture I took at the Alcove in Long Beach, a great little spot that unfortunately closed.

This burger was loaded with cheese, pickles and bacon, but it also had crispy fried onion rings on it.

It was a great burger, and I was sad to see the restaurant go.

Any time you pile good ingredients on top of a cheeseburger so that it is not only hard to pick up, but also is even harder to eat, it is all the better, don’t you think?
