Buddy Burgers: A burger I'm proud to call a friend

Along the seedier end of Oxnard Boulevard sits one gem of a burger shack: Buddy Burgers. This take-out stand is bordered by shady one-night stand motels, coin Laundromats and pawn shops. When ordering a burger it’s not unusual to see a homeless person or two passed out near the restaurant. However, do “NOT” let fear stand in your way of venturing down Oxnard Boulevard for one damn fine burger.
Buddy burgers may look like a normal burger at first - shredded lettuce, tomato and American cheese melted on a patty squeezed in a bun. But it’s the bite that sets this burger apart.
Buddy Burgers seasons its patties, giving the customer more to taste than just the standard lettuce and cheese. The patty has just enough salt and pepper that it you could eat it by itself and not bitch that your burger was tasted plain.
While most burger shacks dress up their burgers with some kind of Thousand Island concoction, Buddy Burgers spreads mustard on the bottom bun. The seasoned patty combined with mustard gives this burger a little kick.
This burger also comes with right price, $1.49. If you’re tight on money you can probably scrounge up the cash to get a Buddy Burger by digging through the couch cushions.
The only problem is convincing people to come to Buddy Burgers’ corner of Oxnard. The city has always had an undeserved reputation for high crime. Because of that, most people avoid Oxnard like a vagrant wino.
But burger fans should not miss out on Buddy Burgers. If you’re worried about safety here’s what you can do. Get a driver and have them sit in the car with the engine running while you order. You will be out of there in minutes, unharmed and chomping down on nice hunk of meat.
