I had The General burger ($25) which had a thick, dense bun with a very tasty buttery flavor. The patty was thick with great texture and doneness, though the flavor deferred to the toppings. The cheese was quite strong in taste and salty alongside the bacon - something I really enjoyed (I like my food salty). The caramelized onions were good but not strong enough to overcome the saltiness. The tangy sauce on the side offered a unique twist and the fries were crispy & very good! Loved the meal :)

I had the Epicurious Burger ($20) whose homemade patty was almost like bolognese, both in the soft and crumbly texture as well as in taste. The bun was nice and went well with the patty, while the greens, sauteed onions, and mushrooms offered fresh yet subtle complimentary flavors. Overall the bolognese taste was quite central to the burger, which was quite refreshing and not too heavy as a whole. The side of shoestring fries was ok, with some crispy others others a bit stale.

I spent a few hours trying to make (seemingly) simple tweaks to my Wordpress blog template and decided to try out Fiverr. The ratings & reviews were really useful to choose freelancers, and I got a response within an hour! The guy was really skilled and fast and I had the option paying an extra $5 to get it done within 24 hours (instead of 3 days). So $10 total to fix everything I wanted within the same day - a really good deal!

I went to a few events which were really cool and met a lot of awesome people. However most of them had specific themes or purposes and I didn't find many programmers that were looking for jobs. Nevertheless, it was great for networking and getting to know the various industries better!

What better place to look for talent than within our own community! I searched HubPortal and found a few developers that were interested in helping out other startups, and guess what - 2 of them were no more than a few seats away! We were able to catch up and start working immediately.

I've heard this a few times. Don't use Fiverr to have someone program an entire custom site from scratch. But if you need help with stuff like installing Wordpress themes or small HTML stuff, it is pretty great for just a few bucks.

Am interested to know if anyone has used Upwork to design and develop an entire iPhone app? Also how much would it cost. I'm thinking something thats just a few pages, like a calendar of events and then information of each event. Thanks!

I used StartUpJobs and it is just like any other job portal but specific for startups. They have a dedicated Internship tab which we could list on. We got a few internship applications through them and ended up getting 2 pretty good interns. Definitely a cool platform, but at the end of the day make sure you do your part in interviewing them and setting their expectations properly!

I went to the Facebook group looking to get referrals to interns, but ended up meeting someone who became my co-founder. Am really glad I didn't corner myself into an 'internship/jobs' site since I got so much more out of the process. Plus, I got a bunch of cool feedback and potential partnerships as a result of letting people know about what I'm doing.
Hint: post here even if you're not looking for interns, you never know what you'll get!

Glints is super cool and easy to use, and I was able to get some applicants and an intern for my startup. It did take a few weeks though - there are lots of internship postings (over 1,000 right now!) from many cool companies so you'll need to figure out how to stand out from the rest and attract people to apply.
I'd suggest using a really cool photo and talking up your company + the role in the first sentence to attract people quickly.

I had Huber's Beef Burger ($15.50) which is on the small side. The beef patty was nicely cooked with good texture, decent juiciness, and a nice beefy taste; a touch salty and chewy though I liked that aspect. The cheese was rather faint while the soft onions added good flavor to compliment the saltiness. There wasn't any bacon at first but they brought some after I brought it up; it didn't add much anyways. The fries were kinda crispy while the salad was nice & fresh. Overall good but not great.

The Burger ($23) has a very thick patty made of several ingredients - the blended beef & pork meat also had hints of veggies within it; the texture was pretty grainy and a bit dry, while the flavor was slightly salty. This was well complimented by the egg and thick bun, which helped curb out the taste. The grilled onions were large and soft, but the flavor was easy to miss (same for the cheese). The shoestring fries were very nice and crispy. A cool place with a good, but not great, burger.

I had the Double Decker Burger ($14.90) which was very thick given the double beef patties. The meat had a decent taste and texture but was nothing too special; it wasn't gourmet but rather a bit generic - like a much better McDonalds patty. The bun was soft and the toppings typical, though the cheese was quite nice. The shoestring truffle fries (+$1 extra) were very good, pretty crispy with a nice aroma & flavor.
A good, quick, and fairly priced meal if you don't need a gourmet burger.

The Alt Burger ($16) has a large (but not very thick) beef patty which was dripping with juice. While I wouldn't consider it gourmet, the patty has a slightly chewy texture with nice, subtle flavors. The toasted bun was a bit dense with good taste, while the toppings & sauces made for a fresh and slightly tangy flavor.
I also had the seasoned fries (+$4) which had good texture & taste, though not very crispy. Overall a satisfying, casual burger thats nicely between gourmet & fast food. 3.5/5

I had the Black Angus Beef Burger ($19 w/ set lunch) which had a dense, buttery bun that I really enjoyed. The beef patty was quite chewy in texture with decent juiciness and hints of salt/seasoning that made for a great taste. There was a strong cheese & mayo flavor which was refreshingly good alongside the tomato. The fries were alright - thick but not very crispy. Overall a tasty burger that I'll glady have again.
ps. the beef carpaccio was great, making for fantastic value as a set lunch.

I had the Bacon Cheese Burger ($26) which has a good sized but underwhelming beef patty - a bit overcooked, not tough but also neither tender nor juicy. I liked the tangy flavors of the sauce & veggies rounded out by the egg, while the bacon was easy to miss. The bun was nice and tasty. I enjoyed the side of crispy shoestring fries, though the small stack of onion rings were just alright.
A decent meal, but a better patty with more pronounced bacon would have helped a lot.

I had the Crazy Tower Burger ($23) which was dripping with all sorts of rich flavors. The cheddar cheese & mushrooms were quite strong in both taste & slimy texture, while the blue cheese & bacon added a lot of saltiness. The double beef patties were pretty enjoyable (right between fast food & gourmet) while the toasted bun was slightly dense with a nice buttery taste. The fries were a tad seasoned but very average. Overall a good, towering burger that'll definitely fill you up!

I had the Muddy Burger ($19.90) which was big and very messy. The beef patty is thick though quite generic in texture and taste. There was a strong nacho cheese flavor which had hints of truffle, crispy nacho chips and fresh guacamole & greens for unique textures & tastes, and tangy tomato chili which was rich but not overpowering. The soft bun was easy to miss, but the seasoned fries were great - very crispy, excellent texture & a touch of truffle. Overall a rich and filling meal w/ good value.

I had the Brisket Burger ($12) which was medium-small in size. While it doesn't look like much - just the bun, some meat, and a few toppings - the burger was actually very good. The bun was chewy and springy without being dense, and had a great taste. The shredded meat was very savory, and though not really juicy nor tender (since it is shredded) it had a great texture and a really enjoyable brisket flavor. Adding a touch of BBQ sauce made the burger near-perfect. A very solid 4.5/5 stars.
