RVGRINGO Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 I remember that my grandmother always referred to motorcycles as ‘machines‘, cars were ‘motors‘ and locomotives, which were steam in my childhood, were called ‘engines‘. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Any place that wants business, particularly if their location is not obvious, needs to have signage and advertising to at least get going until their rep is good enough, right? They don't. You look at that place from the street right now and you can't even tell it's a place. Look at Lake Taco over by the libramiento gas station. Always busy and yet still put a coupon in the paper all the time. Because it works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kb9gzg Posted October 4, 2014 Report Share Posted October 4, 2014 Maquina is above the papelaria Trinidad at the light at Lloyd in San Antonio. Mario's is about 3-4 doors west of the San Antonio plaza on the mountain side of the street. Muchas gracias! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ericurmudgeon Posted October 5, 2014 Report Share Posted October 5, 2014 Maquina - machine. Thanks. When I asked the young woman there the meaning I am pretty sure she said "engine or train engine". The theme of the place is pretty train oriented so I just accepted her word. :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kb9gzg Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 My wife and I just returned from Perry's, where I tested his deluxe cheeseburger (7 oz. of hamburger on a delightful roll, as compared with his 5 oz. on a regular bun), and it was even better than my first. I asked waiter Josue to really put a sear on it before cooking it through, and the result was a crispy exterior--just the way I love 'em. I can't conceive of a better burger!

wdb Posted October 6, 2014 Report Share Posted October 6, 2014 So far, Merendero Lake in Ajijic has the best burgers. This is a great little café, nice ambiance. My wife loves the salads, but I really like burgers, especially the specialty of the house, the Merendero Burger. There is a picture of the burger on this review website.- looks just like what I had. http://lakechapalarestaurantguide.blogspot.mx/2014/02/the-merendero-lake.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pappysmarket Posted October 25, 2014 Report Share Posted October 25, 2014 Menu sounds good, prices look very high for an off-the beaten path restaurant, just my HO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zerbit Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I had burger at the food truck by the plaza in Chapala tonight based on the comments. I really enjoyed it, nice crust on the burger, juicy and well garnished. Not what I'd categorize as a "gourmet" type burger, but beats just about and chain / franchise burger. If I had the choice of this burger NOB or eating at a chain, this place would get my business. Thanks for the tip, it was worth the visit. I'd do it again.

gringal Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 I like Gossips burger the best, especially when I can have their salad instead of fries. Good meat used, which has to be the top consideration. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xena Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Although they are all different in their own ways, I have most enjoyed (in no particular order) the burgers at Bar Tomas (Chapala),Magana Cafe (Riberas) and in Ajijic at Bruno' s, Yves, Perry' s and Monte Cristo. All use excellent beef and prepare it to perfection. All have very good to excellent french fries. Bruno's fries absolutely knocked my socks off. The burger there is mesquite grilled and topped with caramelized onions. It was the last burger I had and so good I went back the next day for another one.

Yarboro Posted December 8, 2014 Report Share Posted December 8, 2014 Panino has recently added very tasty burgers to its menu along with the best fries I have ever tasted! Unfortunately they are only open for lunch Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ComputerGuy Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 It's easy to edit your typos and mistakes after the fact. Meantime, casting a vote for Just Chillin' as a very good burger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gringal Posted December 9, 2014 Report Share Posted December 9, 2014 To his delight, Gossips was happy to substitute their sweet potato fries for regular fries when my husband went there yesterday. They are the shoestring type, and less greasy. Great burger, as usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
