I don’t often get too excited about burgers these days but when I heard what they were serving up at Kuma’s Corner my heart began to race.  I heard story about the heart stopping burgers at this discrete metal bar I got excited…like a little kid on Christmas morning.  Could the famous Kuma Burger live up to all the hype? Well….all I can say is that it was all that it could be and more!!

It doesn’t get much better than this! Everything is better with bacon and an egg on it! The pretzel roll and fries are perfect for getting up all that yolk that spills onto the plate.

The last glorious bite!!!!

I loved everything about this place from the death metal playing, the tatted up wait staff, the flash art in the pisser and the heart stopping food.  I did not try the other burgers they had but I heard nothing but good things from the crew.  Burgers named after death metal bands so you really can’t miss.  I do have to give props to the BBQ pork fries.  Come on BBQ pork, fries and cheese what else do you need?

As I left, in a cholesterol induced haze, I felt that I should be the one thanking them but they beat me to the punch….I’m such an ass.  Oh yeah by the way…don’t wear any clothes that you ever want to wear again because the smell of the place permeates every fiber and requires incineration.  Also a good tip is to shower before going to bed because I hear the smell transfers to your sheets but it is all worth it because this is the best burger in Chicago!!
