Lately, the fast-food burger market has taken an upswing of sorts in Northern Delaware, good news for all beefy-minded grazers who have grown tired (and queasy) at the thought of another McDonald's atrocity. We've seen more and more Five Guys popping up of late, and while their burgers are a notch above the somewhat over-rated offerings at Jake's, they manage to please without really capturing true burger beauty (try their bacon-wrapped hot dogs instead). I've had better luck at the new "Cheeburger Cheeburger" on Concord Pike just north of the state line, where the ambience is decidedly of the "50s sock hop diner" genre and the burgers are fatter, juicier and potentially more lethal than most (I refer here to the 20-ounce "Pounder" ($10.29) that will get your picture posted on the wall if you manage to finish it). The assortment of toppings is staggering (ranging from onions rings to guacamole). Servers are still a bit teen-green, and they need to hone their speed, but it's sure worth a stop.
