Leg one is down, I’m in Peoria and I had great dinner with some of the club members, really nice guys, this is going to be fun!!! \u00a0Now I made a stop in Bloomington, Indiana to see my dear friend Jim Haverstock and he surprised me with a trip to local legendary burger place, Hinkle’s! \u00a0We tried to go to Hinkle’s once before an it was closed so I was anxious to get back to Bloomington and give it a try. Below is a great article bout this burger place which was founded in 1930!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Let me get right to the rating, but let me explain something first, over time I’ve started to classify burgers in one of two categories, thick patty burgers and thin patty burgers. \u00a0They are really different and it’s not fair to rate them in the same category! \u00a0Hinkle’s Burger is the new Number One Burger in America in the thin patty category. \u00a0You have to go to this great little place and try one of their juicy, delicious burgers!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Hinkle’s currently owned and run by Debbie Clark and her husband Gary, \u00a0Their two sons help them run the place and they treated us really nice!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Below is the newspaper article and a picture of their store front \u00a0I hope you can get buy sometime and try their great burger! \u00a0My advice, get the double, it’s fantastic!!!<\/p>\n

The burger really was great, but having any meal with Jim is a great meal, \u00a0we had a wonderful visit and I will certainly be back at Hinkle’s with him again!<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Blessings,<\/p>\n

Forgive me, but I’m gonna brag!!! \u00a0My bride slipped \u00a0this card into my luggage! \u00a0 Without me knowing it. \u00a0Thanks sweetheart, me too!!!!<\/p>\n
