The Frugal Burgermeister's Wednesday Report
Wednesdays are $4.99 burger days at the Deluxe Bar & Grill on Broadway, down by the Harvard Exit. You have to purchase a beverage (not necessarily beer), but then you can choose from the Tillamook cheeseburger, bacon cheeseburger, gardenburger, bacon-onion-avocado burger, mushroom-and-swiss burger, BBQ burger, bleu cheese burger, and chicken burger.
These are not Quinn's or Smith burgers; the bun is unremarkable, there's nothing heirloom about the two tomato slices, there's a single leaf of fresh lettuce. But they come with those magical Deluxe fries, and as you look around you realize that everyone else in the restaurant is eating a burger, too. So your herd instinct is satisfied, which is nice, because you're eating cow.
We would be remiss if we didn't point out that Wednesdays are also two-for-one burger night at the blue-collar/divey Satellite Lounge, at 11th and Pike. Their burgers may be a cut above the Deluxe, though they don't offer nearly the selection, and table service is occasional, very much like flux transfer events. So be ready with your burger choice, and for god's sake don't wait until your beer is empty to order another round.
