After a less-than satisfying experience with Five Guys, there's been some reluctance to throw a hat into the ring with another chain from out-of-state as the next big thing in burgers. The Counter Burger, a California-based chain whose Lincoln Park location has been doing brisk business since opening late last summer, unfortunately doesn't do the trick, either.

From today's Tribune, Chris Borelli does a fine job interviewing George Motz, the man behind the film "Hamburger America" and its new companion book listing the top 100 burgers in the country. Like most on the East Coast, Motz thinks that Chicago is too "hot dog crazy", not to mention being hung up on "that stupid pizza thing," to have a hamburger identity.
