HUNKY’S $3.95 » TURKEY CHEESEBURGER

THE VIBE: It rocks that this ’50s dinerstyle burger joint took over the old Gennie’s Bishop Grill space.

WHY IT’S A BANG FOR YOUR BUCK: Most of the burgers on Hunky’s menu are under $5. If you’re not in the mood for that, order a corn dog ($2.15) with cheddar tots ($2.15) or a veggie Swiss burger ($4.25).

FOR A FEW DOLLARS MORE: Sweet potato fries are $1.40, and onion rings are $1.95.

TIP: This is one of the least expensive places to eat in the Bishop Arts District, so it becomes pretty slammed sometimes, but the line moves fast.
