(Laura, right before we went into FRED 62, 8.16.09) It’s almost unfair, because I ate at Fred 62 only a few days after having the amazing burger at The Foundry. But I am dedicated to being objective, and so did my best not to let that previous burger influence by opinion of the burger I was currently eating. All that said, the burger was mediocre.  The thousand island dressing was tasty, and the meat decent, but the bun was a bit dry, the onions so plentiful as to be overpowering, and the cheese merely serviceable. What I do like about Fred 62 is that they offer both a regular burger and a small version, for those “I want a small burger” moods. I know you have them. Grade: B-
