Mutton-chopped scholar George Motz will use the platform of a new Travel Channel show calledBurger Landto clear up the delicate matter of where, exactly, America’s best hamburgers can be found, which is essentially just a commendable way of bouncing around and eating really good hamburgers. When it comes to New York’s best — ever thesensitive subject— Motzreportedly singles outthose found atMinetta Tavern, the newly refurbishedDonovan’s, and the venerableJG Melonversion, but also the fried burger atKorzoin Park Slope, a seemingly highly unorthodox contender. It’s an organic beef patty draped with Edam, bacon, and condiments inside a round of Hungarian lángos dough. The whole thing is wrapped up andfried, and though it’s been on the menu for a few years and even has its ownevangelists, it’s only now about to blow up. [NYDN,Earlier]
