“Heading to Yakima from Tacoma tonight, what’s the good burger joints around there? Coming over White Pass.”
– Mike Mitchell

It didn’t take long before suggestions started flooding in. There was a little debate, mainly about how places that were great back in the day have declined in their awesomeness but increased in cost. But for the most part, the one thing it seems that Yakima Valley residents can get behind is a good burger!
