I told myself that once I passed the halfway mark on this weight loss journey that I would celebrate by eating the best hamburger in New Orleans. I’ve past the mark and I’m ready to keep my word. The only problem is that I’m not satisfied that I really know where to get the best burger in town. Some people have told me that the best place is Port of Call while others have told me that it’s Camellia Grill. As of late, I’ve even had votes for the Blue Tomato and the River Shack. So, I’m going to let you decide. I’ll take in all of the responses I get from the blog replies, Facebook, Twitter, and Google+ and eat a burger from the winner sometime this coming weekend. I’ll let everyone know the answer in tomorrow night’s blog.
Here’s what I’ve eaten today:
1 Snackwell’s Protein Meal Bar
1 Special K Protein Meal Bar
1 grilled chicken sandwich on whole wheat sandwich rounds with fat free cheese and lettuce
1 apple
1 serving of lowfat blueberry yogurt with fresh blackberries
2 grilled chicken soft tacos on corn tortillas with fat free cheese
72 oz of water
Supplements I’ve taken today:
1 Fish Oil Pill
1 Multi Vitamin
Exercise:
42 minutes of walking
15 pushups

Port of Call….hands down.
Lee’s Hamburger is the best in my book in New Orleans. 😀 Keep up the good work.
Thanks, Faith. It’s been a long time since I’ve been there. I’ll have to try them again sometime.
Best burger in town: my house! Seriously, homemade burgers are best because you can make them however you want.
Okay, Dave. You’re in the running. So far, everyone has named a different burger place, so you’re tied for first.
I live within a mile of River Shack, John, but have never eaten their burger. I have eaten burgers from the following: Port of Call, Flamin Burger, Lee’s Burgers, Winston’s Pub, and “my house”.
Recently I ate at Ruby Tuesdays in Slidell. Twice within a month. Going back soon.
So my vote would be Ruby Tuesday’s. They have one in Slidell and one in Baton Rouge.
They do NOT freeze their hamburger meat.
I make my burger at home the same way. No frozen ground meat for me. I make a one and one half pound burger and put onions and green peppers with a little salt and Worchestershire Sauce in the meat before frying. Then I apply Jack Daniels Bar-b-que sauce to the burger between two slices of 9 grain bread. Are you hungry yet?
I also ate a burger at the Blue Tomatoe. e in Tomato like e in Potato. My hero Dan Quayle. He was correct, but didn’t receive credit.
