As The Coffman Team, we are both family and co-workers. And, most of the time, we get along pretty well. But, there is an on-going disagreement that has split The Coffman Team in two – where is the best burger place in Las Vegas?
A Team LBS creation: A triple with egg, bacon and cheese. With onion rings. Just because the menu allows a creation like this, doesn't mean it should be done. Please create responsibly.
In one corner, we have Team Burger Bar. The Burger Bar, located in the Mandalay Bay, lets you build the burger of your dreams. Starting with your choice of meat (Angus or Kobe beef, turkey, lamb or veggie), you can add any topping you’ve ever thought of, and some you haven’t (anchovies? truffles?). You even have a choice of fries (fat, skinny and sweet potato). The members of Team Burger Bar feel that if you want the ultimate burger experience, the Burger Bar is your place.
If you are looking for a great burger, but don’t want to drive to the Strip, then you are a member of Team LBS. LBS: A Burger Joint, located in Red Rock Station, offers a choice of meat (beef, turkey or veggie) and a smaller, but still respectable, choice of toppings. Team LBS points out another benefit of their favorite burger place: it’s close to a Ben and Jerry’s (also located in Red Rock Station). This is a purely theoretical argument since no member has ever had room left for ice cream after eating the gigantic burgers at LBS, but they wanted it stated for the record anyways.
Where to get the best burger is a debate that might never be settled among The Coffman Team, but we are always on the look-out for new and better places. Perhaps there is a burger out there that will unite the team. I’ll keep you updated!
