Is Austin’s $38 Burger Worth It?
The Michelin Guide doesn’t give awards for the best hamburgers in town, but have no fear, City Cast Austin is here to fill the void. Host Nikki DaVaughn is joined by newsletter editor Kelsey Bradshaw and producer Elissa Castles to debate over who has Austin’s greatest burgers for a splurge ($38??) and a good deal. Plus, the team tries to decide on one favorite overall Austin hamburger, and where to find the best burger accompaniment — the french fry. Finally, stay tuned to the end to find out why one guest is certain there is a local crinkle-cut fry conspiracy.
And don’t forget — the first eight people to become City Cast Austin Neighbors will win a free pass to the Texas Tribune Festival, taking place downtown Nov. 13 - 15. Become a member today at membership.citycast.fm.
