Red Robin, Yummm
Something we have wanted to do, with little success thus far, is to try as many different places to eat as we can. They don’t need to be fast food, or burger related necessarily but we do want to try them all whilst we have the chance.
Having already been through the fast food debate as to what we do and don’t have back home I won’t do it again here. Suffice to say that, Red Robin is something we don’t have back home. Through Tari, we were introduced to new friends Nancy and Ken, both locals and both lifelong packer fans. Though we had met before, briefly, this was our first chance to share a meal together and we were very excited to do so.
Like our first experience with Chuck E. Cheese we expected very little from what we thought would be “just another burger joint”. Again how wrong we were. These burgers, despite being enough to fill an entire offensive line, were incredible and reminded us of the good old fashioned “milk-bar” burgers we used to get at home. That is, big, soft, seedy buns with generous fillings and in my case a fried egg on top. Nothing says “Aussie burger” like throwing a fried egg on top, a piece of beet, or beetroot as we call it doesn’t go astray either. The onion rings were bracelet size, which was a little off putting but still delicious and the unlimited steak chips, that we didn’t take advantage of, would have been great had the entire defensive line decided to join us unannounced.
With an untouched glass of coke spilt by “quick hands” Luc and Ben off and running to the games machines every 5 seconds we were in for an interesting night. Thankfully by the end of the evening things were a little calmer and our meals were easily finished with enough time for the customary tourist shot. All in all and I know I sound like a restaurant critic here, we again enjoyed trying something new for the first time.
