2) Tysons Corner: In more mall food news, burger chain giant BGR The Burger Joint's new location at Tysons Corner Center is officially open today, the Washingtonian confirms. Oh, and remember the chain's famed "Snooki"-themed burger special, topped with jalapeno, cream cheese, and mojo sauce? It's back today through September 30 at all BGR locations in honor of the birth of Jersey Shore star Nicole "Snooki" Polizzi's son Lorenzo, and this time, BGR's Snooki burger is served with a free "baby" slider.
