Best Burgers in Beach City

Dear Editor:

Thanks for the review of the Shaka Shack in Santa Monica in the late August issue (see “Lunching at Shaka Shack,” Messenger Vol 36, No 17 [Aug. 23, 2012]).

Michael and Kathy provide the Da kine gustatory experience, similar to that in the, long gone, T Doi and Sons store in Hawaii, but served Topanga Style. The burgers are worthy in and of themselves for a trip to a part of Santa Monica that still has the small beach city vibe.
