Hey Guys!

Thank you for all for the friend requests, kind words and the warm welcome!

So, let's get down to business. We loved your restaurant reviews from last week, and this week, we want to make it even more specific. As I'm sure all of you know, Michael's favorite burger hails from Umami Burger in LA - for those of you who have enjoyed this juicy, fat puck, you know why he loves it. Umami Burger offers a variety of burgers from Truffled to Port and Stilton and for an extra treat, they make their own ketchup in house. If you live in or around LA, it's definitely worth venturing over to one of their locations.

But as we know, the burger is a very special, very particular thing in every person's life. I, too am a Los Angelian, and nothing has yet to eclipse my experience at Laurel Tavern in Studio City. If you can brave the (slightly irritating) crowd, or better yet plan on an early dinner (around 5 pm) you will be witness to one of the juiciest, softest burger moments of your life.

So, tell us: Which burger does it for you? We want to hear about every burger across the country and coast to coast, from mom 'n' pop shops to Kobe sliders and everything in between. Write up a scrumptious burger review for us, and the Voltaggios will choose their favorites to feature on the homepage this Friday!

Here's a great burger review for inspiration by Johnathon Gold, Pulitzer Prize winning food critic.

Please visit the forum YOUR BURGER REVIEWS to post, and be sure to have your reviews in by this Thursday, May 20th so that the Voltaggios have a chance to thoroughly read your reviews.

Thanks everyone - we can't wait to read about your favorite burgers!
