Beard Awards And Burgers? In The Same Breath?

The upscale burger officially happened in the 1990s with Chef Daniel Boulud’s db Burger of short rib and foie gras. Finally, another step forward: the inclusion of Superiority Burger on The James Beard Foundation’s list of semi-finalists for Best New Restaurant. A burger, and a veggie burger at that. The Superiority Burger patty is a mashup of beans, nuts and grain (with Muenster cheese, iceberg lettuce, tomato and a dill pickle). It helps that the restaurant is down the street — figuratively — from the Beard Foundation itself.
