The photo above of the burger from the Chelsea Royal Diner in Brattleboro, Vermont \u00a0proves just that. Part of the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.vermontfresh.net\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Vermont Fresh Network<\/a>\u00a0(connecting Vermont&#8217;s food communities), the Chelsea Royal Diner serves these masterpieces, made from local, grass fed beef\u00a0that\u00a0results in a burger\u00a0more delicious than virtually any other I&#8217;ve ever had. Even the cheese is sourced locally from the <a href=\"http:\/\/graftonvillagecheese.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Grafton Village Cheese Company<\/a> in Grafton, Vermont. We&#8217;re not sure about the sourcing of the fries, but that&#8217;s OK &#8212; something of a guilty pleasure to accompany the great burger. It&#8217;s affordable, too, coming in at under $10, making it a Visiting New England on a Budget-approved great budget meal!<\/p>\n<p><em><a href=\"http:\/\/www.chelsearoyaldiner.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">The Chelsea Royal Diner<\/a> is located at 487 Marlboro Rd., Brattleboro VT.
