Your Mom's Burger Bar

Not much to write as I'm climbing my way slowly out of a burger coma.  Met a few friends for lunch today at a new burger joint called Your Mom's over on East Cesar Chavez.  If you haven't been following the 104.9 burger bracket, they selected 64 of Austin's best burgers and put them into a NCAA tourney type faceoff.  Your Mom's had been getting a lot of love, so we gave it a go.

Food A+
I went with my favorite genre of burger and got the Buffalo Bill:
1/2 Lb. burger tossed in Buffalo's Don't Fly Sauce, stuffed with blue cheese, jalapenos, wrapped in bacon with a touch of ranch and a sauteed green chili on a toasted wheat bun.

To quote Ken Griffey Jr's one show stint on The Simpsons "Its like there's a party in my mouth and everyone's invited".   Unreal.  Cooked to perfection, perfect amount of add-ons, so so good.  The fries weren't bad and had a unique seasoning to them, but they could have been crispier.

Service C-
Its a small place and its not really clear when you walk in if there's a line or just people standing around, let alone where you're supposed to order.  Once you do, you wait for your burger to be brought out.  You wait....and you wait, and you wait.  Casino El Camino looks like Junior at the Union Wendy's in comparison.  By the time mine came out, I'd blown through my lunch break and had to take it to go.

If you have some time to waste, definitely go check it out but if you're looking for something quick on your lunch break, don't bother.
