Two weeks ago, the third and final debate between presidential hopefuls Donald Trump and Secretary of State Hillary Clinton aired to a captivated audience at The Ainsworth Midtown. But the crowd may have been more captivated by the Burgers being served than the actual debate. Chef Stephen Yen prepared six candidate-themed Burgers to celebrate the night, and the top two ordered Burgers won spots on The Ainsworth menu.

One of those Burgers, inspired by Secretary Clinton, was The Heirloom Hillary. Topped with heirloom tomatoes and fresh Burrata cheese, this Burger was the most-ordered Burger of the night and a huge crowd pleasure. Chef Yen shared the recipe with us so you could make this presidential Burger at home!
