    If you want BBQ then you go to BBQ joint. The best burgers in KC are Five Guys. Fast food isnt better. Sit down places dont have a better burger and fries.

    • @destinationdebrief
      @destinationdebrief  3 місяці тому +1

      I also enjoy Five Guys, but I try to focus on locally-owned spots. Since Five Guys is a National chain restaurant, they don’t fit the criteria.

      I’m not sure I’d say that is always the case, but I was HIGHLY skeptical of a boast of being voted best burger for over 30 years. It implies a yearly vote that they keep winning. And well…I wasn’t that impressed.

    Flea Market - Best burger in KC.
    Burg n’ Barrell - Good but not as good as Flea Market.
    Town Topic - Great burger and tots but waaay overpriced for what you get.
    Fritz’s - Solid burger. Very good. How can you beat having your meal brought by a train.
    Gotta try Cosmo Burger.
    Tays, Hi-Boy, Hayes & LC’s cannot be overlooked.
