I love a good hamburger, so if I want time out from cooking that's often my choice. A REAL Aussie hamburger though, not one of those American one's. One that comes to mind is the log cabin garage just south of Gympie. Sorry, I can't recall what petrol company it is, but you can't miss the log cabin. Very rustic looking inside too.

Now I'm just going to have to google that Nelly. I believe it came from America, but that's as much as I know.


Here you go. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hamburger

It came from Hamburg Germany originally, from where a lot of people emigrated to America. Hence the American connection. Interesting.

I like a good Aussie burger too but it is funny that we call them hamburgers when in fact they have a rissole (or meat patty) in them. Did they have ham in them once or where did that come from?
