Lately I have been having a hard time eating anything that is not grilled. Not sure what my problem is exactly. Maybe I have just spent too many years eating boring sandwiches with “lunch meat”. Or, maybe its because with my recent work schedule I have a hard time breaking for lunch before 2PM, which is obviously past lunch time, which is obviously past the time in which a normal person would eat “lunch meat”. Anyways, anymore when I’m downtown, and my tummy is a-grumblin’, I must have a Calypsos’ Iliad, or a Hudsons Hamburger. Hudsons Hamburgers is the Coeur d Alene Food place that we will be reviewing today.

Hudsons Hamburgers is more than just a Food Place, its more like an epic adventure. You never know when the line to get in Hudsons will be backed up to I-90, or when you will catch the perfect moment in which when you go, a seat is waiting for you. Today was one of the rare occasions in which the seat was waiting for me. It rained this last weekend, and I guess that scared all of the tourists home. It was just 5 days ago that I had to wait at least 30 minutes for a mouth watering Hudsons Hamburger. Ok, back to today. Actually, I need to say one more thing first. When I mentioned that I had to wait 30 minutes, I should have mentioned that it was an honor. Waiting 30 minutes for a Hudsons Hamburger is an honor, and a priviledge. I am honored to live  in the same town that grows the best Hamburgers in the world. Ones that are worth waiting any amount of time for.

Ok, back to where I was. I walked in today and immediately found a chair. I sat next to 2 very nice ladies that were there for the first time. One was from Spokane other was from…back east. They had both read about Hudsons for the first time the previous week and decided to check it out. They were both completely satisfied after splitting just one Cheeseburger which is never enough for me. Hudsons had met every expectation they had, so they went after a piece of Hudsons Pie.

I had a Double Cheeseburger, and a Single Cheeseburger with Ketchup, secret sauce, pickles and onions. Amazing. The burger must be made from really high quality meat, because it is unlike any other burger I have ever had. If I remember right, they dont freeze their meat. They just use it.

Hudsons does not offer fries. Sounds crazy since everyone offers fries with their burgers. But Hudsons does not need to. They do one thing, and one thing very well. They make good burgers. After having one of their burgers, you dont need fries.

After I leave Hudsons, I always feel really really good. Ready to take on the rest of the day and the tasks in front of me.

Go try them out. I guarantee that if you are not 100% more productive after having a Hudsons Hamburger, I will give you back all of the money we charged you to read this article.
