Here's what the site had to say:
"The gigantic burgers at The Thurman Cafe come as 12oz patties and are piled high with toppings, so it's best to visit with an empty stomach. Customers recommend The Thurman Burger loaded with ham, mushrooms, onions, mozzarella, American cheese, and pickles, as well as the Mushroom Burger with mushrooms and mozzarella. The hand-cut fries are given the thumbs up too."
