Burger wars: Emberburger

Emberburger
Eat it: Emberburger, Jesse’s Embers, 3301 Ingersoll Ave.
Info: 255-6011
Sometimes simple beats showy. Classic beats flashy. Such is the case with the Emberburger at Jesse’s Embers. Bun, meet burger. Burger, bun. Not much else, save your mouth, need be invited to this party. Just a half a pound of sirloin, cooked over the flaming open grill in the open kitchen. Dob of ketchup if you must. Tomato, maybe an onion, if you’re greedy. But this one’s all about the lovely meat, grilled to perfection by what must be a trained master craftsman, succulent enough to drip blood-tinted juices down your wrists.
