25 Degrees, Yes Please!

Within a few days of not only being a member, but also being presidents of Tour de Wiener, we were off to our 2nd stop along the way. We had a client dinner at 25 Degrees - a formal burger joint located in City North. By formal burger joint, we mean that they serve "gourmet" burgers. Their menu contains fancy appetizers titled "snacks to share" that consist of spicy tuna on crispy eggplant, chicken liver terrin, bacon wrapped dates, and a few others...  and of course burgers that cost you about $10-$18 each, depending on the number of extras and sacues you add.

Renee & I sat next to each other and splurged on one of each app. We then decided to split a gourmet burger, and their Sonoran Hot Dog. This $10.50 hot dog was worth every penny. It was a bacon wrapped dog, with carmelized onions, tomatos, pinto beans, hatch green chilis, queso fresco, onions, mustard, and garlic aioli. We cut the dog in half and were pleased, bite after bite. However, due to the mass amounts of appetizers & bites of both the burger and the dog - we couldnt even finish the 5lb delicacy. Plus, the overwhelming amounts of flavor on this dog started to upset our belly. This hot dog isn't for the faint of heart.


The Sonoran Hot Dog in all its glory!
