Well, the question is really what constitutes a" gourmet" burger experience, and is it worth double the price?

sorry, I thought this was an eating trip. pedal to metal.

Sawsee, the 2 main food & wine areas of Oregon, both growing and consuming, are the Willamette Valley and the Rogue Valley. You are managing to miss both on this trip. Also, there is no way you will make it from Astoria to Eureka on 101 in 1 day.
