PHOTO: BEHOLD...the "Faux Poutine Burger"

[Amerigo Vespucci]

It's not often that A Hamburger Today covers the same restaurant twice, but when AHT editor Robyn Lee caught wind of the fact that burger madman Gus Paschalis at Wiener and Still Champion (WaSC) in Evanston had come up with what might be his most outrageous concoction to date, some reporting was necessary.

WaSC is known for four things: great old school char burgers (read my review here), an insane collection of fried foods, creative sauces, and stellar fries. It's a place that occasionally serves a Luther Burger, deep fries things ranging from gyros to chili, and offers sauces like sweet bacon ketchup and strawberry mint ranch. What makes the Faux Poutine Burger stand out is that it brings all four categories of WaSC goodness together in one over the top and extremely messy meal: grilled beef, chicken fried gravy, aioli, Merkt's cheddar, and fries in one burger.

1. I live down the street from this place.

Some of their food is quite good, but there is no way I would want to eat something with "fried gravy" on it.
