And if you say it's the Corner Bistro, I'm gonna smack you in the face!! Yes, this is going to be a HIMYM-esque journey ;-)

If you cannot make it to Peter Lugers in Brooklyn for lunch I would say go to BLT Burger on 6th Ave between 11th and 12th Streets.

Shake Shack is another option, I am partial to the Madison Square Park location.

I'm partial to The Counter in Times Square where you can build your own burger. It's pretty reasonably priced too. I usually go for lunch when I'm in New York and craving a burger.

Mick's Karma Bar won best burger in OC at the Golden Foodies last year. I'm kind of addicted. Most of their staff knows my order.

I really wanna try this burger, though.

I have to find an excuse to go to Wrigleyville next month, while on a business trip to the Loop!

These days, a copacetic burger is passable as long as good sweet potato fries are present.

Notables in Calgary is still the best burger nowadays. Provolone drizzled onto gourmet beef/pork patty grilled to perfection, on a multi grain bun, served with gourmet salad.

Stopped in this week at my local restaurant and they took my favorite burger off the menu. That's cheddar and sauted mushrooms. They did end up make shifting my favorite by taking out the bacon on the 'Stockman' burger and adding sauted mushrooms. I always have salad and avoid the fries nowadays.

Based on my extensive research of the New York burger scene (partially chronicled here), I would agree.

No offense to the PL Burger (which i think is very good) but its not in the same category as the Minetta Tavern BLB.
