Burgers of the Day: Powers Hamburgers


It's five-for-one day here at Slashfood. Just kidding, who could possibly eat only one slider, much less make a meal of it. Hence today's headline. These specimens come from Powers Hamburgers in Fort Wayne, Ind. Powers is that town's answer to White Castle, i.e. a late-night establishment for when the mood strikes. I must say they look a helluva lot better than White Castle. For one thing, they're smothered in sauteed onions. I've had Krystal burgers and they were a step above the Castle's. These greasy little wonders appear to be a on whole other level all together.

Pfft.

The mustard took me out of paradise and made we long for the East Coast.

And where's your Krystal Thanksgiving stuffing?

Not to mention the burgers are to die for!

I'm from the Fort, now in Indianapolis.
I love that place - after the bars close.

And the people that work there are the greatest.

Is this blog from Ind?

Thanks for the memory!
