I believe that when you eliminate something from your diet (like bread), it's really important to make sure that the foods that you are eating are the very best that they can be. That way you feel like you are treating yourself, not depriving yourself.
Last night I was driving home from an event where I managed not to snack, and was ravenously hungry. I stopped by Joe's Cable Car, a local institution known for their delicious, quality burgers. They grind their own rib eye/chuck every day and the quality of the meat is obviously a cut above the rest. You can get your patty in 4, 6 or 8 oz sizes and cooked to order right in front of you.
That said, it is seriously expensive. I ordered a 6 oz. Diet Fresh Ground Beef Steak, which is basically a burger without the bun, and it was $16 without tip. You'll end up spending about $20 on a burger, more if you order sides. The place basically looks like Johnny Rockets, so people get sticker shock more often than not.
And that said, it was seriously tasty. Completely satisfying, intensely flavorful, and worth every penny. I didn't miss the bun or the fries, and felt happy and full afterwards.
