Burnin’ Love, Whiskey River!

Yes, those were the names of the burgers we had for lunch today :) I had this urge to bite into a big juicy burger and so off we headed to the Red Robin, a wonderful place serving an array of gourmet burgers and spirits….yup it’s Halloween time but nope there we no sights of legless, flying things. This is of course, you know the kind of spirits that you drink and when you do indulge in too much, your eyes might actually make you see things fly around, legless.

Anyhoo, hubby thinks when you really want to eat sandwiches or burgers for lunch, McD, Burger Kings and Carl’s Jr., Subway or Quiznos are out of the question. Maybe okay for an occasional fast-food dinner but not when you are looking for fulfilling lunch. Well, it’s been ages since I have been to McD for burgers. Actually, almost never since I came to the US. There are just so many authentic burger joints around us that for me to try out leaving no opportunity for something that I can get back in Malaysia too.

For instance, I like my sandwiches/burgers at Mimi’s Café or Zous Mediterranean Café and burgers at Fuddruckers and now Red Robin is on the list.

Another restaurant with extensive menu that gives you a hard time selecting the thing you want to it at one particular time. After much serious deliberation, hubby decided on the Burnin’ Love Burger from the Classic Gourmet Burger category.

*I am pasting here the description of the burgers from the Red Robin website. It was the descriptions that prompted us our orders :)




*You’ll get fired up for the crispy-fried jalapeño rings, tangy salsa, and spicy Pepper-Jack cheese layered on top of our cayenne-seasoned beef burger. It’s topped with shredded lettuce and tomato to cool things off and served on a jalapeño-cornmeal Kaiser roll with Chipotle mayo.





As for me, I decided on the Whiskey River BBQ Chicken Burger.



*A tender, juicy charbroiled chicken breast basted with our signature Whiskey River® BBQ Sauce and topped with melted Cheddar cheese, crispy onion straws, lettuce, tomatoes and mayo. Cowpokes and real folks both love this one!



Although we were served bottomless (never-ending) steak fries, we couldn’t move pass what came in together with our burgers! Then we washed everything down with a really large glass of Root Beer float. Yummy! Overall, we liked the service and enjoyed the patio seating where little junior could eat and count on the passing cars.
