Had 2 burgers recently that I hadn't had in a while.

Ozona's makes a pretty mediocre burger - thin and generally without flavor.

Chips, on the other hand, was sensational. It was different than I remembered it - thicker and better-tasting. I remember thinking Chip's burgers were good, but this one was better than I remembered. (I did make the mistake of going with tater tots as the side, though. The onion strings at Chip's are awesome, and I should have stuck with that. The tater tots were buried in salt and pepper, and don't come close to the tater tots at Jake's.)

I'll go back to Chip's for that burger, but it will be back to the onion strings next time.

The burgers were good at Goffs, but half the fun was going and listening to Harvey give you and everyone else grief. Oh, and the statue of Lenin out front was classic
