After plans to try out Ravi with a friend were thwarted, we turned to another neighborhood spot that was unfortunately set to close tomorrow. Wiinky's has served hotdogs and burgers for the past two years, but in an unfortunately far to familiar refrain, the landlords were not renewing the lease for the restaurant and a few other local shops on the block to make way for a pet store. Truly a shame, since this place makes some fantastic burgers.
Ranchero Burger
Cheeseburger topped with jalapenos, onion and fried egg. The fried egg had a runny yolk that melded into an unctuous burger.
Chili cheese fries.
Since they had already sold out of hotdogs, the hubs got an extra cup of chili. Nice and spicy with a different flavor than the version at Ben's Chili Bowl. Very enjoyable.
Alamo Burger with great bacon, cheese, avocado, lettuce and tomato and a side of onion rings.
The hubs' bacon cheeseburger.

Such as shame Wiinky's is closing, but hopefully they can find a new location with a more amenable landlord.
