It used to be El Penco. *Sniff sniff* how I loved El Penco...the chimichangas were so cheap and so good. And the sandwiches were always made with love.

Craft Burger's burgers are made with...hands.





As much as I still do miss El Penco, I have to say Craft Burger is sloooowly winning me over. I still dislike the interior cramped-ness; eating in makes me feel claustophobic (somehow it always looked way bigger when it was El Penco..*sigh*).

Oh, I'm also not a fan of the fries; do they have sweet potato fries?



The Classic Burger is $5.65 or you can do the combo for $10 and get a can of pop or water and fries or onion rings. I've yet to try anything BUT the classic burger though...old habits die hard (I've only been to CB twice). I hear the cookies are some of the best in the city?! Is this true? Somebody tell me. I also hear the veg burger is amazing....again, will have to test out this theory...someday only though 'cause lookit how delish this is:





It's a tasty burger. I wouldn't say it's the BEST burger in town 'cause I wouldn't know. You'd have to tell me which is the best. Down the street at Banknote you can get a pretty decent burger combo that's mighty good, too.

But how about the size of the onion rings:



At those sizes, I think there were only a couple of onion rings in the bag.



So is it open late for dinner? (A friend of mine responded with: "Then it should be called Craft Dinner"...haha, she is so witty, that one.) And the answer is yes, they're open till 10pm (Mon-Thurs) 11pm (Fri-Sat) and 9pm (Sun) and it's much tastier than Kraft Dinner (some may disagree).
