Matt About Food: Burgers taste better with cheese skirts

There have been many great eaters in the history of mankind. From Joey “Jaws” Chestnut, who ate 68 hot dogs and buns in 10 minutes to Sonya “The Black Widow” Thomas, who ate 62 Krystal Burgers (palm-sized burgers) in eight minutes. Not all of us decide to embrace our more gluttonous side, but food is something I am a pretty big fan of. I do not claim to have the most refined palette or the biggest appetite, but one thing I do know is where to find good food in Sacramento. I have lived here for 22 years and enjoyed more than my fair share of delicious breakfasts, snacks, lunches, brunches and dinners, and maybe a few more meals in between.
