It's a thread about burgers.

For many a year Kirk's was the Bay Area's Best Burger. Is it still in business?
(first location was California Avenue in Palo Alto, then they opened a couple more, don't remember exactly where)
p.s. mid-Peninsula starts at Redwood City and goes south. That's my home territory.
