Hamburger Jones

My time here in Minnesota is winding down. It's been a good, cool summer. We've eaten out almost every day but mostly for breakfast or lunch and mostly light meals.

But yesterday we pigged out!

We'd seen this new restaurant on Saturday but we'd already had our meal at Noodles so we had to wait. By the way, at Noodles we had noodles. Then walked to Whole Foods and shared a Jamba Juice. Yum, yum.

So yesterday, after church, we tried Hamburger Jones. The temp was in the 70s. We ate outside in the sunshine.

Hamburger Jones has a fun, entertaining menu. The two hamburgers we most enjoyed reading about were:

The White Trash Burger - with chicken fried bacon, fried cheese curds and plenty of Velveeta.

The Hangover - with bacon, cheddar, hot sauce and fried egg.

Dave saw a man about his age having The Hangover and went over to chat. I thought he was going to admonish him but Dave was actually thinking about having one himself.

But we both settled for a more traditional burger with fries and baked beans. That was enough trans fat for us. But man, was it good!
