I wrote about some new burgers in town today. Now I want to know who makes your favorite burgers.
Do you like the char-broiled half-pounder at Gary's Steak Out?
Smitty burgers at Don's Drive-In?
The old-fashioned goodness of Pick Quick?
Pacific Grill's sliders?
What about Frisko Freeze?
McDonald's?
Vote here and vote now for your favorite burgers. I'll review top vote-getters at a later date.
You liked Asado and you disliked Duke's. You want a full-service bakery, a full-service deli, a bone fide breakfast place and a Greek restaurant. You've had plenty of teriyaki and corporate restaurants with great views and mediocre food. Here are the results of the 2006 Ed's Diner reader restaurant survey. Thank you for taking part.
Update: Here are the survey results.
I know what I liked. I know where I ate. What about you?
What was your favorite restaurant meal of 2006? Which restaurants were you delighted to discover?
I’ve spent all year telling you about South Sound restaurants. Now it’s your turn.
How often did you dine out in 2006?
What kind of restaurants do you want to see open in the South Sound 2007?
What kind of restaurants do we have too many of already?
Do you still drive to Seattle for dinner? Really? How often?
The survey will take just a few minutes to complete. There’s nothing to win and even less to lose.
Click here to take the survey.
Update note: One reader pointed out he'd like to see more and perhaps different choices for some questions in the survey. If the choices I put together don't appeal or apply to you, please share your thoughts in the comments section by clicking on the link below. Chefs and restaurant owners read Ed's Diner. You've got their ears now. I'll post the results of the survey and highlight some of your choicest comments next week.
