Worst Burger Ever
June 3rd, 2008
So last night I played a game of kickball with my former co-workers. It went well, we won 25-1 and I managed to not just kick high lobs and get caught out the whole time.
After that we went to a bar called “The Chalet.” While there, I had the worst burger on earth. It was a mushroom swiss burger. The mushrooms were clearly from a can, and surrounded by some sort of goo or pulp. These had been superheated, so much so that I burned my face bringing the burger up for the first bite. I wondered why this was, but when I actually got into the burger, I found out that it was because they melted the cheese that way. The meat was a little cold, and had a sort of Styrofoam texture to it. It bounced a bit and fell apart in my mouth, but not in a good way.
When I got home, K had the perfect idea for cleansing the taste buds, banana cream pie ice cream from Sebastian Joe’s. Someone, an ice cream genius, over there got the idea of making banana ice cream with nilla wafers in it. I cannot explain to you how delicious this is.

Yeah… I don’t eat at the Chalet…
As a vegetarian, I figured I’d order their grilled cheese sandwich. I assumed it would be grilled on the same grill as the meat. What I had not anticipated was that meat would be grilled into the bread. Gross. Also, (since I’m not really too experienced with the concept, I’m not positive) I think the meat was rotten. It didn’t just smell like meat, it smelled sickening.
Their beer and appetizers are good though!

You can’t complain about the beer, that’s true. One dollar to get a second pint is a pretty sweet deal as well.
I don’t think the meat was rotten, but I do think it was about the cheapest meat allowed by law, and clearly came in pre-made patties. Not that this is surprising, but I learned a lesson that day.
