Another day, another burger. This time at Holeman and Finch. Upon our arrival in Atlanta, Daphne's brothers threw us a party at Holeman and Finch, a bar that Jonathan liked. It's specialty was small plates. So we didn't actually have cheeseburgers for dinner. Dinner was made of things like marrow, pimento cheese, deviled eggs, short ribs and other tasty little bites. That and a pretty decent selection of beer. Daphne even spotted a bottle of Trevor Jones wine that she loved and ordered. But before heading off on our trip South, I had read about the cheeseburgers at Holeman and Finch. They're not on the menu and they only make them at 10 p.m. And they are a limited supply. They will run out. Apparently people will start coming into the bar just before 10 so they can get a burger. Now, I understand that this is mostly a marketing ploy by the bar. Granted, a clever marketing ploy, but a ploy nonetheless. But I was pretty sure it wouldn't work unless the burger was at least pretty good. Well, the burger was excellent. I'm pretty sure it was a brioche bun, good quality meat cooked properly, melty cheese. What wasn't to love. It reminded me of the perfect diner hamburger. I would still place it behind the Moderne Burger burger, but it was very good. Better than The Works. So if you're near Holeman and Finch and it is nearing 10 p.m., I'd say, head on over and indulge in a little grease and cholesterol.
