Burgers - Pappa's Burgers on Westheimer.

Beer - The Flying Saucer, downtown Houston. Beers from around the world.

Inspection - Well, anyplace. There's a place on Westheimer. The inspection place? Near Chimney Rock in think. I used to live over there.

Ottos Burgers... Wataburger is open 24/7 and has ketchup in little tubs instead of packets. Their breakfast is also amazing (try a taquito or a "breakfast on a bun")...

Wataburger best served at a drunk level of at least a 70%

Burgers - another vote for tookies, even though the quality has somewhat fallen off since a few years ago (stoner staff) oh yeah, and at 2am and half past drunk , whataburger > *, except maybe waffle house
Beer - your local grocery store, lol, i'm not much of a club person, but legends pool hall in league city has some pretty decent prices
Inspection - honestly couldnt tell ya, i get mine done on the hush hush

btw, i have had many a damn good burger at the whataburger in seabrook right by tookies
