Kirk's Dikdik


While it isn't well known, kirkburgers are traditionally made with the savory meat of the Kirk's dikdik, a small antelope found in eastern and southwestern Africa. Here's a photo of one I took in an exhibit at the California Academy of Sciences museum.

Kirkburgers

Last month Casey and I took a break from work one weekend and headed to Kirk's Steakburgers for lunch. We've tried to go for dinner twice and have gotten turned away because they close at 8 and don't like to bend the rules even a little. It was pretty crowded even at 1:30 on a Saturday. We each had a delicious Kirkburger. They have an extensive condiment bar, but be careful as the Miracle Whip is not labeled and can easily be confused with mayo.


I don't know what else to say. Kirkburgers!
