An open faced burger with an over easy egg topping the meat and bun part
and an over easy egg on the bare bun part all covered with chili was
popular at the Mapes Hotel in Reno in the sixties and early seventies.
Then there was cheese, onion and other stuff on top. It was served with
fries. I still make it occasionally. I don't make the fries because I'm
a health nut. It's not the same as you describe, but what's not to like
except a trip to the emergency room?
