Ray's Hell Burger〔The legal name of the restaurant, , was Butcher Burgers. Source: 〕 is a hamburger restaurant in Arlington, Virginia, United States. Hamburgers served in a few variations, including gourmet toppings, are its only main dish offering. Ray's Hell Burger is the third eatery established by Washington, D.C. restaurateur Michael Landrum, who also owns the steakhouse Ray's the Steaks in Arlington and Ray's the Classics.〔 "Ray" is a nickname given to Landrum by a former girlfriend.〔 ("Ray incidentally is a nickname given to the chef by a former girlfriend")〕 It opened on July 1, 2008, and while there was no public relations blitz for the opening, popularity of the restaurant's following grew quickly.〔 It had undergone various permutations of its name. As of January 16, 2013, two of the Ray's Hell Burger restaurant locations closed and a new larger Ray's location opened. Burger toppings include seared foie gras, roasted bone marrow, and double-cream brie.〔John Metcalfe (Forget politics, just have fun ) December 31, 2009 ''The National'' (Abu Dhabi)〕 Of the bottled drink offerings, Ray's Hell Burger serves Old Dominion Brewing Company root beer, Cheerwine soda, Boylan Bottling Company pure cane sugar sodas, and Ale-8-One. Ray's Hell Burger Too also included Bell's beer, Lucifer (a Belgium blonde ale), and Mondavi wines.〔 United States president Barack Obama took Russian president Dmitry Medvedev to Ray's Hell Burger in June 2010. President Obama also ate at the restaurant with Vice President Joe Biden in May 2009.〔("Ray's Hell Burger, also in Arlington, is not a chain, but the restaurant run by iconoclastic chef Michael Landrum earned a national profile with President Barack Obama taking Vice President Joe Biden and Russian President Dmitry Medvedev there last month. (Medvedev's review: "Not quite healthy, but it's very tasty.")") 〕 That first visit caused such an increase in business that it forced Landrum to expand the restaurant at an adjacent location.〔("The story got play in media outlets half way across the globe, including Saudi Arabia, Landrum notes.")〕 ==See also== * Ben's Chili Bowl 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Ray's Hell Burger」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
