I was at a burger place called the South St. Burger Co. last week and decided to try a burger with wasabi mayonnaise, gourmet relish, and the typical lettuce, onion, tomatoes, and banana peppers. The wasabi mayonnaise gave it a great kick and a different flavor. The bonus was that they serve New York Fries there too! Speaking of delicous hamburgers and fabulous french fries, Bobby Flay has a new book out called, Bobby Flay's Burgers, Fries, and Shakes . It is full of pictures and offers 33 hamburger recipes as well as french fry, onion ring and shake recipes! There are great tips in the book to make your homemade hamburger adventure even better. I like the book so much that I got an extra copy to give away! To enter the draw, all you have to do is: Leave a comm...
