Hamburgers

  Hamburgers have always been one of my favorite foods and we have them almost weekly at my house. Whenever I go out to eat with anyone I can't help but get a hamburger no matter where we go. There have even been times when I've ordered burgers at steak house, an action that is heinous to many avid carnivores. However, I just don't think anything can beat a slice of ground meat on a fresh roll. As you can imagine, over my life of eating hamburgers religiously I have tried multiple different varieties of burgers. There's always the classic hamburger with nothing on it but ketchup, but I've always found that boring. I like my food to be full of flavor and that just didn't cut it for me. The cheeseburger isn't much better in this regard either. As you can tell, I'm a guy who doesn't really like change, but after a few years of these two rather boring variations I decided to try something new. The first really different variation of hamburger I ever tried was a mushroom and swiss burger and I absolutely loved it. It opened up my mind to all new toppings for burgers and I started to experiment with different variations even more. I tried everything from sliders to a cheeseburger with two grilled cheese sandwiches in place of buns, but I still felt the burger had more potential. Just a few months ago I found one hamburger that met all of my possible hamburger needs. It was in a small restaurant called Aroma in Wethersfield, MA. It was a hamburger topped with cheese, more assorted classical toppings, and then a fried egg on top. Given that the time of day was roughly between breakfast and lunch it was the ideal for me and I have never enjoyed a burger as thoroughly as I enjoyed that one. If ever you are passing through Wethersfield I would highly recommend you swing by Aroma and get this burger.
