McDonalds is dead to me
As it was such a beautiful evening, I skipped the overcooked hotel pasta and took a nice long walk (with a little bit of time on the train) over to Arlington for dinner at Ray’s Hell Burger. Some of you might remember hearing about this place on the news: last spring the President dropped by for lunch, leading to the strange non-controversy known as “Mustard-gate”.
Since then, I’ve been telling myself I was going to go; a little hole-in-the-wall burger joint serving freshly ground, high-quality beef and gourmet toppings (foie gras, truffle oil? – here’s the menu) served up quick, hot, and cheap. People say it’s the best burger in DC, or perhaps the east coast. Given that I’m pretty much always within spitting distance of the place, I had to see for myself.
Tonight was my night, and Damn…it was good.
Really, it’s that simple; probably the best burger I ever had. Fast food is forever ruined for me. If you have the means, I highly suggest dropping in for a bite.
