My grandmother and I were decently hungry. We had both eaten a big breakfast, but needed to get dinner so we decided to go to Smash Burger. It had recently been added to a shopping center near my grandmother's neighborhood and we both wanted to try it. This was both our first times at Smash Burger. We decided to get our food to go because it seemed like a good option, which it was. The service was very good. The food was delicious. The experience of being served is to happen another day. I imagine that it would be great, since I saw a very attentive employee bringing food out to a table, while my grandmother and I waited on our food. Now on to the deliciousness that was my meal.
My Meal
I ordered their Classic Smash(TM), French Fries, and a soda.
The only change was to not have pickles on the burger. Even though my one Aunt is famous for her homemade pickles, I still don't like them. Anyone who knows me, or at least the type of food that I like, knows that I am particular about my hamburger buns. I am very pleased with the one's at Smash Burger. I opted to customize mine, but am glad I stuck to the "egg bun". (Smash Burger Menu). It made my burger a burger. What's a burger without toppings? This burger had a special sauce that made the burger even more delicious. Tomatoes found between the top bun and the patty we very yummy. The patty was very delicious and slightly bigger than the buns, but the buns held it together.
I am a French Fry Connoisseur! I absolutely love fries. I like most types, but not particularly in love with Sweet Potatoes. The only way I'll eat those is if there's marshmallows melted on top of them, i.e. only on Thanksgiving. Here at Smash Burger there were different sides, fries, onions, sweet potato fries, etc. I decided to stick to regular fries, since I wanted to see how they made them before getting a different type of fry. I love shoestring fries. They're the kind that a certain food franchise that everyone knows is bad, but still eats. Hint: Their Coke (soda) is quite possibly the best in the entire world, or just in the fast food franchise chains. I'm not going to mention the name, but only make it painfully obvious what fast food place that I'm mentioning. The reasoning behind my mentioning that company is because they are the reason that I love fries. I grew up eating those fries and they're the reasoning behind me being a French Fry Connoisseur. The fries get my stamp of approval. I only ask they they thicken the fries, I wish there was more potato in the fries, but they were still appetizing.
The soda I chose was a classic, but had no caffeine. It tasted like it typically does and it didn't take any room away from the delicious food that I was consuming. I am trying to abstain from sugary drinks after a certain hour, hence why I chose a caffeine free soda. I am trying to get back on a schedule. This past week I was off for spring break, which coincidentally actually felt like spring during the break despite me not actually going outside for its entirety. I was in hibernation mode and needed to catch up on "me time." The weeks leading up to spring break have been extremely stressful and I was in need of a real break. Thank goodness for it. I feel like I'm getting back to my good habits of studying and sleeping enough.
In the end the meal was delicious. I recommend it to all people who want to enjoy a mouthwatering burger and terrific fries. My Classic Smash (TM) was quite smashing along with the fries. The experience of becoming a fan of Smash Burger is just starting. Hopefully you decide to give Smash Burger a chance to "smash" your taste buds like they did mine. They didn't literally "smash" my taste buds, but made me want more.
