Looks damn good!!! Especially where/how they cook them, and the fact that
they ban tomato sauce.

Even though I am a recent convert to tomato sauce......... but only one.

Ketchup is not tomato sauce. Technically it's a sauce made from tomatoes,
but it is not tomato sauce.

"tomato sauce" is Australian for "ketchup". I've no idea what they
call the
substance that Americans refer to as "tomato sauce". Maybe they don't
have it, since it's just diluted tomato paste, for the most part.

Well, very interesting. They are about 20 miles from here, maybe I
should take a ride down this weekend and try them out! If I do, I will
bring my camera and post up some pics.

A Cheeseburger without Ketchup, heresy... They should be shot dead right
where they stand... Ground up and fed to the cows, with no condiments!

Scotty, don't mess with my Cheeseburger!

In my neighborhood, a cheeseburger without mustard is heresy. ;-)
Ketchup is for french fries.

Well, that's pretty clearly wrong. Not everybody lives in the US, and
even in countries that share the same basic language (English in this
case), the words don't always have exactly the same meaning. And
there's even people in the world who don't use English as their
principal language!

Please do.

They even steam the cheese........ and there's *lots" of it on the
burger!!

Apparently, it's some secret cheese blend that they won't give out. Looks
like a mix of mozzarella and cheddar to me.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ketchup


Ketchup (also spelled catsup), also known as tomato ketchup, tomato sauce,
red sauce, Tommy sauce, Tommy K, or dead horse,[1] is a condiment, usually
made from tomatoes. The ingredients in a typical modern ketchup are tomato
concentrate, spirit vinegar, corn syrup or other sugar, salt, spice and
herb extracts (including celery), spice and garlic powder.[2] Allspice,
cloves, cinnamon, onion, and other vegetables may be included.

Steamed burgers are ok, but better to make the trip to Shady Glen in
Manchester or Vernon for their burgers with crispy cheese. You can even
get the crispy cheese as a side. Also recommend the Grape Nut ice cream
while you're there.

Wiki again fails to account for regional differences.
Louis Lunch is located in New Haven, CT, USA. The forbidden condiment there
is not called anything else but ketchup. Red sauce? Tommy sauce, dead horse?
Maybe other places, long long ago, but not there, not now.

The restaurant in question is in CT, USA, and has been profiled numerous
times in TV food programs. They specifically ban ketchup , by name, and
mustard.

OK, I have it bookmarked (Louis Lunch) and I will make a visit there
asap with my superior knowledge of cheeseburgers, and my camera and
fill you all in.

On another note, somebody here noted a lunch outfit in Meridan CT that
was also featured on TV, I have lost that link and would appreciate if
someone would repost it.

Thanks, Scotty

I could spit on Shady Glenn from here I have had their burgers for all
of my life. They are special and unique. I think I am going to have to
take a weekend soon and make some trips out and judge for my self. It
could make a good "eat report" post to this group similar to what we do
on our riding groups

Scotty, man, a whole weekend of eating Cheeseburgers!

I didn't notice if anyone mentioned the White Castle that used to be in
Hartford CT. I think it has been gone for a while though.

Never saw a White Castle, but Augie and Ray's in E. Hartford is another
good burger place.
