Was at the new restaurant Old Europe in Old Folsom tonight. I sat at the bar and ordered the German Burger - I am going to throw in the ring that this is my vote for Best Burger in Folsom. Let the games begin.

The gauntlet has been thrown down.

I've been wanting to try the new location anyway. Who's up for it? Saturday lunch anyone?

Where is this? In the former Pachangas/825 Sutter? (My son-in-law worked at both of those businesses in the same location) Or is it elsewhere?

Yes it is a very tasty burger.. What makes their burgers so much different than any others is that they use a combination of beef and pork. It adds a unique flavor and texture to the meat patty. You'd better watch out for the One Pound Burger that they offer!! Talk about a gut bomb... and their prices are very reasionable

Yes, in the old "Pachanga" building. In fact, I was the "old" music guy there, working for Larry et al with both companies. They worked hard but it just didn't happen. We had a good steady crowd with Salsa lessons on Thursday nights for awhile.

Normally I'd say Friday but the snow is too powdery.

As for the menu, lots of tasty looking stuff. The place has a light and airy feel I'm not accustomed to in German restaurants which usually seem to be fully of massive booths made of dark stained wood and no windows.

The curry wurst was indeed pretty tasty.

Mylo, I might suggest to you that you ask for Thomas or John and I am quite sure that they will make every effort to make you a pork free burger. I have known these folks long enough that they will strive to accommodate you in any way possible. They make their burgers prepared fresh daily, by hand. Why not give them a shot at it? Afterall this isn't your run of the mill corporate run location... DIG IN !!!
