June 2006-Bernard's Burgers
When I met Bernard it was a hot sunny day, perfect for chili, to cool you down.
I waited for what I thought was forever, but boy was it worth it. Handmade cheeseburger with secret spices was their signature. On my next visit I found that Bernard was soon to celebrate his father's passing on day. One month after that date was the anniversary date (1976) that Bernard's father had founded the burger stand. And it truly stands out, on Avalon & 118th Street, with it's purple and white stripes.
Bernard has a passion and a commitment for his food and has high aspirations for the future.
His spirit and cheeseburger truly touched by soul and my stomach.
