Nolo’s Kitchen & Bar

When chef Peter Hoff was cooking in California, he became a card-carrying member of In-N-Out Burger nation. The diner-style, double-patty format he’s using for the cheeseburger at this North Loop hot spot — to the tune of several hundred a week — is an affectionate homage to that venerated chain. Two items of note: The rich, flavorful beef hails from Peterson Craftsman Meats, a premium local supplier, and the golden, challah-style bun is baked at local favorite Turtle Bread Co. “The In-N-Out Double-Double is the best burger there is,” said Hoff. “I’ll just blatantly call myself a ripoff artist.” Served with fries.
