11 Amazing Tastes for National Burger Month
LAS VEGAS (MainStreet) -- In anticipation of May's National Burger Month, TravelsinTaste searched from West Coast to East for the best and most interesting burgers around the country.
In Las Vegas, where everything is over the top, Holsteins at The Cosmopolitan of Las Vegas is serving the Gold Standard, a dry aged beef sirloin burger with smoked bacon, aged goat cheddar cheese, tomato confit, baby arugula and garlic-chive aioli. Want something a little more decadent? They've got the Billionaire Burger with Kobe beef, foie gras, port onion marmalade, frisee and truffle mayo.
For the ultimate decadence, though, one must go to Fleur by Hubert Keller in Mandalay Bay, where Hubert Keller has perfected his FleurBurger 5000. The creation consists of a foie gras and black truffle-stuffed Kobe burger served on a brioche truffle bun with Keller's special sauce, and accompaniments include a bottle of Chateau Petrus 1995 poured in your very own Ichendorf Brunello stemware, imported from Sweden. By the way, the "5,000" in the name is not just a random number -- it's also the price. But of course the staff shipping your stemware home for you as a keepsake is included.
