I think the Best of Las Vegas awards are great. The idea of calling upon the residents of an area to vote on the most outstanding members of a category is a really cool way to draw attention to those businesses and individuals which deserve it most. To further that goal, I’m creating a new set of awards. Based on my @TrendableVegas feed, I give you the Trendies.
Trendies will be nominated and awarded for a variety of categories. Categories will include almost anything that pops into my head and probably anything that is suggested to me. Have an idea for a nomination or a category? Go for it! Send it to me @TrendableVegas. Send votes to me there also; I check it far more often than I will the comments on this blog.
For this edition of the Trendies, we’ll be considering the most wonderful burger experience which does not take into account time or price. That’s the problem with the word “best.” Best what? Best value? Best speed? Best accuracy? Best quality? It can mean so many things to so many people, and while I love that kind of interpret-as-you-will ambiguity under some circumstances, I think it’s important to have more clearly defined categories for a set of awards as prestigious and influential as the Trendies.
In the category of Most Wonderful Burger Experience Not Accounting for Time or Price, I give two nominations:
1) Burger Bar
2) Cheeburger Cheeburger
These two options are very different, but I love them both. I have a clear favorite of the two: Burger Bar. It is my favorite restaurant in the world. I really love Cheeburger too though, and I thought it deserved a nomination. I recognize some people disagree (sometimes with good reason) with my opinions, and Cheeburger could reasonably even beat out Burger Bar for the title.
I have noticeably not included Slider Truck in the nominations because I plan on nominating it for Best Food Truck. However, if anybody else nominates it, I’ll add it to the list.
Nominations for this (and any) category are open. Voting begins... now!
