Yeah wasn't for me. Oh well.... at least now I can say I've tried it and won't be left wondering every time I drive past there.

I see a few potential situations here:

1) You didn't go to Au Cheval, you instead drunkenly walked into Burger King and were so wasted you thought it was Au Cheval
2) You went to Au Cheval, ordered a burger, then threw the burger in the trash, dug it out, then threw it in the street, picked it up, then threw it in a toilet, fished it out, then sat down to eat it.
3) You stepped on a gravitational anomaly which sent you into an alternate universe where Au Cheval makes shitty burgers. You ate shitty burger, then somehow found your way back to our world without realizing you had ever left, your only memory having eaten from shitty Au Cheval.
4) Glitch in the matrix

This bums me out because my bell pepper plants didnt take this year (and stuffed peppers was one of my fav things to do with them) they got choked out by my brandywine tomato plants, on the flip I guess my tomato plants went nuts.

Sometimes you just gotta go old fashioned:


Not sure what this weekend is going to bring, word is we are going to get some non-grill weather.

The bun was stale not fresh.

The patty tasted like how you described earlier - they chucked it on the ground, fried it some more, then served it on the plate.

It's not even close to a good burger let alone beat burger. You could stroll into Shake Shack and get a better burger lol.

I went with others from LA. It was unanimous where we all just took a bite and looked at one another. Then, the phones came out to talk shit to all our Chicago peeps who kept touting Au Cheval.

Seriously. We thought maybe it was some inside joke. Send the non natives to the "best" (worst) burger in the city.

I haven't had it in a LONG time. I wonder if something's changed. I'm gonna have to go again soon to find out for myself.

And it's not just a Chicago thing where we don't have good taste or something. Au Cheval routinely makes the list for one of the best burgers in the country. In fact Food Network ranks it THE best burger in the country.

For example:
https://www.today.com/food/best-burgers-us-t132106

https://www.foodnetwork.com/shows/to...-5-restaurants

Not saying you're wrong.... I was just shocked and now I really need to go try it again and see if something's changed.

Yeah please do. We had five in our party and four burgers were ordered. Even the salad the fifth person ordered was funky.

The most offputting thing about the burger was the patty. It did NOT look like photos and shit we've seen. Shit looked like a frozen puck and tasted like it as well. You know when the burger is just exceptionally circular and I mean perfectly circular? It was like that. It's why we were all confused as to how this, clearly processed frozen patty looking thing was this highly rated, lol.

How do I always miss these things. I always find out after the fact. It's like I don't post for a few days and come back and everything's changed.
