About a month ago we printed a post regarding the increasing hamburger war throughout the DC area.
In a city chock full of pricey, white table cloth restaurants, the gourmet hamburger is suddenly majorly in demand.
Options for gourmet style meat on a bun include places like Five Guys, BGR, Rogue States, and Ray’s Hell Burger. But it seems as though there will be another addition to the battle, if Food Network star Bobby Flay has anything to say about it.
According to a report by Missy Frederick of Washington Business Journal, Bobby Flay is hoping to bring his hamburger franchise to DC as well.
“Celebrity chef Bobby Flay is shopping his Bobby’s Burger Palace concept around the District, according to a broker representing the Food Network star and Mesa Grill chef,” Frederick wrote. “Flay is working with Tom Papadopoulos of Papadopoulos Properties and Michael Morris of Cana Development for at least a couple of locations. Flay has his eye on sites in the 3,500-square-foot range in the higher-end neighborhoods of D.C. He is close to signing a deal, though he would not disclose where, according to Papadopoulos.”

Any ideas on where Bobby’s Burger Palace might land in DC? We’d put our money on either Dupont Circle or maybe Chinatown.
