    Time Out Chicago / Issue 104 : Feb 22–28, 2007
    Battle of the burgers

    It's patty time

    Nothing satisfies like a good burger. But all burgers don’t scratch the same itch: Sometimes you want a highbrow version topped with foie gras pâté; other times you want to avoid beef altogether and see how venison tastes on a bun (the answer: pretty damn good). For the true connoisseur, we’ve tracked down the city’s best burgers—from tiny to tremendous, plain to posh. Dig in with both hands.
