Smashburger

Smash Burger is a burger joint located on Rea Rd in Blakeney, NC. Smash Burger is known for their fresh, juicy, delicious burger patties with a unique menu of toppings. I went to Smash Burger on Sunday and it was so busy!

Smash Burger is known for its smashed patties which absorb all the juices needed to maintain the perfect patty. “We all know that magic happens when meat and heat collide, but, forget everything you thought you knew about grilling a burger. Smashing is what makes ours so astonishingly flavorful.” That quote is seen on several different areas throughout their website. They also have several words that are placed on plaques throughout the restaurant labeled: ENJOY, INDULGE, SAVOR. The restaurants overall look was very classy for a burger joint. The color scheme is very well done. Below is a picture of the restaurant I went to.

Their menu is very detailed with several different options of “spicing” your burger up with new and fun ingredients. They have fun names for their burgers and many different toppings. They have all their burgers on the menu labeled like the picture below. They almost make the menu interactive. Each ingredient is laid out almost as if it is on the burger.

I decided to try the Bacon, BBQ, Cheeseburger. This was a burger with BBQ sauce, slices of bacon, melted cheese, and the infamous smashed patty. I also ordered their smash fries which are similar to truffle fries. They are seasoned oily fries basically. Below is a picture of my burger and fries.

Overall I would rate this restaurant a 4.5 out of 5. The burger was AMAZING and so were the fries. I will be back for sure!

And from that friendship, you may even find yourself lucky enough to have a few more friends, thus forming a group. Here are just a few signs that prove your current friend group is the ultimate friend group.

When it comes to television, there’s very few sets of on-screen siblings that a lot of us can relate to. Only those who have grown up with siblings knows what it feels like to fight, prank, and love a sibling. Ross and Monica Geller were definitely overbearing and overshared some things through the series of "Friends," but they captured perfectly what real siblings feel in real life. Some of their antics were funny, some were a little weird but all of them are completely relatable to brothers and sisters everywhere.

College is a great place to meet people, especially through Greek life. If you look closely at sororities, you'll quickly see there are many different types of girls you will meet.

1. The Legacy.

Her sister was a member, her mom was a member, all of her aunts were members, and her grandma was a member. She has been waiting her whole life to wear these letters and cried hysterically on bid day. Although she can act entitled at times, you can bet she is one of the most enthusiastic sisters.

Every kid in college and/or high school dreams of summer the moment they walk through the door on the first day back in September. It becomes harder and harder to focus in classes and while doing assignments as the days get closer. The winter has been lagging, the days are short and dark, and no one is quite themselves due to lack of energy and sunlight. Let's face it: life is ten times better in the summertime.
