This year’s best burger prize goes to Sidebar (542 Grand Avenue), a burger which they say “finds virtue in restraint: a simple, well-seasoned and carefully cooked patty, on a grilled bun brushed with chipotle-spiked Thousand Island.” Best Al Fresco Boozing goes to Lake Chalet, which is no real surprise.
But the best thin-crust pizza for 2011 is apparently not Pizzaiolo, but Emilia’s (2995 Shattuck Avenue), from a Pizzaiolo/Flour + Water vet.
