Some of us would argue that the burger has transcended the categorization “sandwich,” that it’s so much more. By comparison, the most expensive restaurant in the Land of Enchantment was deemed to be Santa Fe’s The Anasazi with an average entree price of $38.14 and the most expensive entree costing a mere $45.00.ĭoes the fact that hamburgers and hot dogs are served on some type of bread or bun qualify them as a sandwich?

On 18 September, the 1000th review was published on Gil’s Thrilling… In the years I’ve been writing my missives, dozens of Duke City food bloggers have come and gone (it’s not so easy, is it?).
