Ben Franklin Would Be Proud: Michelle's Melt Debuts

JUST AS Spike Mendelsohn's Good Stuff Eatery boasts, this really is "good stuff". Every day this quaint burger joint dishes out piping-hot burgers and hand-spun shakes to the nines, but with such a limited menu, it can grow old...and very quickly. How many times can you honestly eat the same twelve burgers? Well, you"ll be happy to hear that a new burger has now officially been added to the menu. Finally! A little more variation! What would an Obama burger be without a Michelle's Melt by its side? This new, Michelle Obama-inspired addition is comprised of a free-range turkey burger topped with sweet caramelized onions, Swiss cheese, a ruby red tomato, crisp lettuce, and South Lawn Herb Garden mayo with herbs plucked straight from the garden, all on a freshly baked wheat bun.

Can it get any better than this, you ask? Well, not only is this delicious and organic burger healthy, but it also promotes local community gardening and all proceeds go towards DC Central Kitchen and their efforts to fight poverty. This burger is definitely worth trying. And who knows, at the rate they're going, maybe by next week they'll have a burger for each of the Obama girls too.
