...quiet in Cheddar City. Cheese also ranks as one of the most despised books. It has been castigated as obvious, insulting.

...Duke's gives you eight burgers to choose from, including the classic cheddar and smoked bacon ($20). It also offers a selection of salad and "fry" sides, like parmesan-and-corn fritters. With the exception of a mediocre spiked milkshake, the fare is excellent. If Dang ever decided to try his hand at cooking something besides burgers, the results promise to be just as enticing...
