On my return trip from the Carolinas, I stopped in Winchester, Virginia to sample the mini cheeseburgers from Snow White Grill at 159 North Loudoun Street downtown. Meeting a short line of people just inside the door, I quickly realized that this small burger stand is the mirror image of New Haven’s Yankee Doodle (R.I.P.), with just enough room inside for eleven counter stools. I watched, salivating, as the cook gently crowned each burger on the griddle with its top bun, steaming the bread as it soaked up the meat’s juices. Grilled onions and cool pickles completed the sliders (above), which promptly disappeared after a few bites. Admittedly, my newfound mini burger obsession was fueled by a long lunch with the Roadfood.com Team a week before in New Jersey, and between hot dog shops was a trip to the famous White Manna in Hackensack. I shared a plate of mini cheeseburgers with grilled onions on potato buns (below), which were much more filling as compared to the white-bread buns from Snow White. Both restaurants demand return visits for further research!
