Best Burger

There are 10 great contenders for this crown, but the current champion by a nose is Husk’s cheeseburger, a monument to doing things the right way. In the textbook of hamburger math, two thin patties are better than one thick blob of beef — thin means more surface area and even cooking area. The cheese is American and holds everything together, including the onions and other add-ons. And it comes on a soft sesame-seed bun with a bit of special sauce. Sure, you can go upstairs and eat off of their very fine main menu, but I’ll be at the bar — and closer to the whiskey — eating one of those perfect burgers. STEVE CAVENDISH
