Exhibit 68 -- Doc B's Fresh Kitchen

Little Goat Diner -- The Verdict

For a diner, great.  For a celebrity diner, perhaps a little underwhelming.  That said, there was nothing wrong with this burger -- perhaps it lacked just a little jazz.  But, of course, it's a diner, not a three star gourmand experience.  Cooked to order, great proportions, excellent service.  No question it was sloppy to ear, but so what -- extra napkins are easy to come by.  The bun required just force to squish out the contents.  The fries were a bit on small size, but they were tasty -- so use a fork.  We'd all go back!  Low of 76; high of 84; average of 81.

Chicken and Farm Shop a/k/a Chicken Shop -- The Verdict

A pleasant surprise, for a restaurant whose primary metier is not the burger.  Good proportions of toppings, meat, and bun.  The Philly cheese steak burger with short rib, white cheddar and peppers, in particular, went over well.  The fries also were perfectly cooked.  Demerits for the little things:  Diet Coke bottles sized for the short-fingered vulgarian; charging for the fries a la carte; and bacon that threatened to overpower the flavor of the meat.  Overall, though, nicely done!  Low of 79; high of 90; average of 83.

Kuma's Too -- The Verdict

The volume is turned up to 11 at Kuma's -- both on the soundtrack and on the plate.   A head-bangingly good time starts with the menu, the choices, and the ingredients (including "anger").  Tasty apps and attentive tattooed service keep the set moving.  And then the burger: big, big, big.  Very well executed; tasty beef; cooked right to order. Those with lower reviews dinged the fries (soggy); the pretzel bun garnered mixed reviews (from "tough and tasteless" to "soft and chewy"); and two of the group seemed to lower their scores due to too much meat -- never seen that before.  Be prepared to take the house-made ketchup and mustard, but otherwise substitutes welcome.  Regardless, worth the trip -- even if you've never been to a Pantera concert.  Low of 79; high of 92; average of 84.
