The Secret Sushi of the Burger Joint

Published on Tuesday, October 5, 2010, by C. Thi Nguyen / Edit Post

King's Burger may look like just another little charbroiled burger stand. But it's not, says ipsedixit. "Because not only does this place serve burgers and fries (as well as sandwiches—think The Hat), it also has an extensive sushi menu. Yes, sushi." And we're not talking about premade stuff, but fresh-made sushi on fancy-schmancy plates, says ipsedixit. "In fact, there's even a sushi counter where you can—get this—order omakase style."

The sushi is more than respectable for a burger joint, especially for those who like interesting rolls.

"The sushi is real good," says Galen. "I always see Chef Justin. This is my go-to place nowadays instead of Go's Mart."

  • I'm wary of any restaurant that specializes in food served raw, e.g., sushi, that's prepared or stored anywhere near raw meat (especially hamburger), which can contain lethal E. coli O157:H7 bacteria.
