May: Serious & Not So Serious Commemorations

In May, as you may know, is Memorial Day, which honors U.S. service men and women who have given their lives for their protection of our country. On a lighter note, it also happens to be National Hamburger Month, and while we don’t need an excuse to enjoy a juicy burger, at AML-Global we can’t resist celebrating the restaurants perfecting one of America’s favorite foods. Burger variations seem as limitless as the comfort food’s continually evolving dining concepts. America has national and regional burger chains, burger bars, burger boutiques and go-to drive-thru’s.
