Burgers and oysters
A good burger after a raw oyster appetizer is one of my favorite meals, and is what I want to eat for lunch on my upcoming birthday. Anyone know a place in the Pasadena/downtown LA/Hollywood arc that does both well. Ideally, they should also have good beers on tap (to go with the oysters), and serve a good bloody mary (to go with the burger).... Needless to say, I'm not going back to work after this lunch.
Thanks.

Meoooow!!! It's all about the Hungry Cat...even though I prefer a different burger, everyone else I know loves theirs...great beers, perfect cocktails, great oyster selection, the fries, the light and crispy onion rings, bring back the clam chowder!!!!!!
You can't go wrong...oh, and they validate parking.›4 Replies-

I did, although I was enjoying the (I think) French lager they had on tap so much that I never moved on to the Bloody Mary. A fine meal, but I have to say that the Cat's burger is a little bit over the top for my tastes. I kind of felt like the bacon was trying too hard to upstage the beef patty. I think I'm more of a scaled-down, basic burger type of guy: maybe a slice of swiss or provolone, perhaps a couple ringlets of onion or a dollop of fried mushrooms, but that's about it.
...Although that fancy burger they serve at Father's Office in Santa Monica is superb.

By far, without a doubt, the only place for your needs is the Hungry Cat in Hollywood. Great oysters, wonderful burger and their beers and cocktails are excellent.
