IF you are of the opinion that the burger dog, beloved turn-stand staple at the Olympic Club, in San Francisco, is the golf world’s finest take on ground beef on a bun, Carlotta Brown would like to have a word.
Make that a paragraph.
“I’ve heard a lot of talk about that burger dog and I’m sure that it’s delicious,” Brown says. “But those people over at the Olympic Club should come over here and try what I have going, because it’s something special. It’s not like anything else. And if we were going to have a competition with the burger dog, I’m pretty sure that I would win.”When Brown says “here,” she means Lake Chabot Golf Course, a bootstrapping municipal track in Oakland, Calif., just east of San Francisco. And when she says “something special,” she means the Carlotta Burger, a creation as outsize as her personality.
