Trippa burgers are only available in esperanza on the malecon friday and saturday nights. They are $7 each and probably weigh 7 pounds! they consist of ..... 2 hamburger patties with cheese, corned beef mixed with onions, hash browns, ham, bacon, chicken, topped with lettuce, tomatoes and pickles, all thrown on the grill and piled HIGH between two, now relatively small buns!! : ) These things are huge! Chris and I had our first trippa burger "experience" back in december. We split one and could barely finish it! - This is the kind of burger that you can't carry up to your mouth, you have to take your mouth to the burger, or at least attempt to meet half way. You can't put the burger down either, because the bun gets so soaked with grease that it falls apart and you can't find the bottom part of the burger to pick it up. Sounds yummy right?! I could only eat 3 or 4 bites and picked at the remains. Chris did the honors and finished it off, it was good but extremely heavy. I couldn't imagine eating a whole one and i like to eat! : ) When xan was here chris took him down to esperanza to have the "experience" for himself. As i said earlier, this experience should probably only happen once in your lifetime, however, our roommate, dewey has had probably a dozen burgers, craves them constantly, has had two in one sitting and has even eaten one for breakfast!! i dont know how he does it! But here are some pictures to prove of our experience and give you a glimps of the trippa burger.....buen provecho!
this is a cardiologists nightmare!!!
