I'm right there with you on this. I don't have either very often, but if I'm going to do the damage, a great burger (which I can easily make at home) with a few perfectly--and freshly--cooked (thin or thick) onion rings (which I can't easily make at home) is a winner.
My dad grew up in New England and refers to the sandwich as a "Hamburg". So did a friend from Erie, Pennsylvania. I love to hear the different regional names for food items, i.e., soda/pop/coke; milkshake/frappe; grinders/hoagies/subs, etc.
I was surprised when I ordered a hamburger in Sydney and it had a fried egg on it. Different that what I am used to, but good.
