All I could say was, Oh My!
When I left work today I was greeted with a car that would put a sauna to shame. Yes, I know that it is summer time. And with me, being a somewhat quirky sort of fella, summertime means sandwiches and lots of them. Lately, the cagey old hamburger has been at the top of the list. You know, "I'd gladly pay you Tuesday for a hamburger today."
Now, there's a place not to far from me, That I have been thinking about for a very long time. So, as my AC is working overtime to cool down my car, and not wanting to crank on the oven for a TV dinner, I change course. I set my compass due east and head for Liberty. Sitting along the west side of Route 291, just north on the 291 and 152 intersection sits a culinary delight known as Conrad's Restaurant & Alehouse.
Now, I've looked at the menu of this place on line so I knew what I would be ordering. Not only do I love a great burger, one that has really good, gooey, bleu cheese on it, is special. Add a cabernet demi sauce, onion straws, lettuce, tomato, pickle and bacon to it and you have heaven on a bun. Include a Martin City Hard Way IPA and a side of sweet potato fries and you are transported to Shangri-La.
So, I am sitting back, sipping on a tasty beer when they bring me my burger.
All I Could say was, Oh My!
I ordered the burger medium. It was perfectly pink. The combination and the richness of the cabernet demi, along with the creamy, moldiness of the bleu cheese, and the savory delight of smoked bacon along with the vinegar in the pickles and the crunch of the onion strings...it was a perfect combination of flavor and texture. I ate the whole thing.
Well Done Conrad's Restaurant & Ale House!
Well Done Indeed!
