Kenny Shopsin could out-White Castle anyone. http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/428950 But I just tried Mark Burger, a long narrow burger/beer bar at 33 St. Mark's Place. The onion cheese sliders on a Martin's potato roll rival Kenny's. The choice of ketchups-traditional, bbq, chipotle or jalapeno allow you to vary the experience literally with every bite.You also can get beer or milkshakes and don't have to fear for your life if your cell phone rings (Kenny might have you killed). Kudos to Hungry Goat at http://www.alwayshungryny.com/thought-for-food/entry/firstlook-mark-burger/ for giving me the scoop on a place in my nabe.

The thin-cut kind served at Mark are popular for a reason, so I'll defer to popular opinion. The sauces were all pretty good. I liked Jalapeno the best. I think I'll be going back for the burgers and beer ($4 for good beer) in the near future. Sun Oct 25 16:41:06 -0700 2009 5130002 1105140 Bone Thug n Hominy
