Creative burgers, extras make Stack'd worth a stop
It seems that the culinary scene is undergoing a burger revolution of sorts, with media outlets pumping out articles on the hunt for the perfect burger, sliders cropping up on menus of restaurants large and small and a trend forming towards "gourmet" grass-fed beef.

Sparking the grill for Stack'd sandwiches
In concept, it's a burger bar. But open Stack'd's menu and you'll be surprised by what you find. Combining the hardworking simplicity of Sobelman's with the progressive attitude of Elsa's, Stack'd pulls the burger completely out of the box.

The Iron Horse Hotel, 500 W. Florida St., is within sight of the new Harley-Davidson Museum, but while the hotel will be a mix of chic and chrome and will cater to upscale business travelers and the leather-clad biker set -- often that's the same customer -- don't call this a biker hotel.
