A Burger for 41 Bucks!!!!
Yep! A 41 dollar burger!! What is this thing made of? Gold? Diamonds? Almost. The burger is made of Kobe beef. For those that are not in the know (I didn't know what it was either) Kobe beef is from beer-fed, hand-massaged cows. OK - I am not making this up - however I REEEEEALLY wish I was... These cows live better than most humans then die and go on to be the meat in outrageously priced hamburgers. Incredible! You won't catch the TexasBurgerGuy reviewing this burger joint in New York anytime soon.. that is unless one of you want to pay for me to fly out there and then pay the 41 bucks for this burger!!!

The Microsoft campus in Mountain View, CA serves what they say is a Kobe beef burger for 5.50. Either that's a huge ripoff, or Mr. Gates has some explaining to do. I'll bet on the latter.
I'd bet if it were truly Kobe beef - it'd be a bit more that $5.50. I'd give Mr. Gates a call... :)
So how good was it??
you should try tommys hamburgers in fort worth. they give kincaids a run for thier money.
The reason you can buy kobe hamburger for so cheap is that they get left with a whole lot of leftovers after they've cut off the prime bits!
OK. Here is the truth. I dont know how many of you have ever been or even know about a little town called Clifton Texas, but there is a restaurant there called White Horse Station. If you really want a good Kobe burger, go by there and have Josh cook you one up! And it is only like $10.00. Seriously
the thing is for cheap places they probably mix regular steer/heifer/cow trimming with kobe trimming and percentage ratio they can call it a Kobe Hamburger.
