Nessy Burgers

During our first couple months of married life the budget has been pretty tight. As a result, red meat has been scarce at the Waller house. While this was not that big of a deal for Lisa (she would prefer tofu most days), Bryce has missed the beef. One day, however, on our way back from a garage sale in Fallbrook, we came across Nessy Burgers...

The Loch-Ness Monster is the joint's name-sake, evidenced by the pictures, newspaper clippings, and information about Nessy on the outer windows and walls of the one-room shack. There was no indoor seating, just a couple picnic tables under a tin awning in front of the order window from which you watch the cars pass by on Old Highway 395 while you ate your burger. They also had free pickles and jalapeños--another plus.

Now to the burgers....Well, it was no Chris Madrid's, but it wasn't half bad. Even the Hamburger Princess of San Antonio approved (see smiling photo). In any case, they gave us our red meat fix for awhile and definitely enticed us to come back. I hope, for their sake, that they find some demonstrable proof for the Loch-Ness Monster one day. That would definitely put Nessy Burgers on the map.
