Darrell’s Restaurant (5576 Fenwick Street, 492-2344) owner Dan Joseph knows about burgers. His Peanut Butter Burger has been at the tops of the The Coast’s Best of Food poll for ages, but he says if any burger can compete with the that one, it’s his new one—called the Hen Den Burger—inspired by a hot new trend in New York City of putting a fried egg on hamburger.

People have been putting fried egg on burgers and pizza in Australia and Europe for 78 gazillion years. But apparently it’s a new trend if they do it in New York.
