Nessy Burgers
Most days, right by Pala reservation, you can see truckers and travelers lining up outside a converted 1950 Navy gedunk trailer. They want to get their mitts on a half-pound burger done “the Scottish way”: double-sized, Aberdeen Angus-style premium chuck sirloin grilled juicy inside, crisp outside, for $6.35. When you’re standing in the wind up there chewing this “monster” burger, it can cool down and dry out pretty quick, but if you chomp it hot, as you take in the San Luis Rey River Valley laid out below you, you can reach a kind of burger-lover’s ecstasy. It’s beautiful up there. Sandra Webster, who started this gedunk 26 years ago, also sells Nessy Dogs, Polish sausages, nachos. But for most, the original burger is still the hit.
