Topolobampo -- The Verdict

For $19, a pricey but delish burger-related experience awaits at Rick Bayless' Topolobampo.  Even our lowest scorer found it a "totally unexpected pleasure."  A creative and well-layered mix of flavors, high-quality ingredients, and perfect execution made this Mexicanized torta de hamburguesa a welcome destination in our burger journey.  We all found the execution perfect, and the combination of flavors tasty.  Indeed, we forgot to get too many photos before there was no torta left on the placa.  The yucca fries garnered more appreciation in concept than execution, but the accompanying salsa and aoili would make roofing tar taste great.  Low of 81; high of 93; average of 88.
