Went for carry-out. Today was my red meat day & I didn't want one of those regular fast food joint burgers. Lo & behold, Burger Rush - about a 5 minute drive from/to my house.
Ordered cheeseburger, chili-cheese-onion fries, strawberry shake.
Should've known something was wrong when it took almost 15 minutes to get my food.
First the good: the chili-cheese fries with onion were really good. The chili doesn't taste like some can chili. Chunky meat, good spice, and even lumps of pepper. A little light on the cheese, but that was alright. The fries were crispy. The shredded onion added a nice extra to the overall taste. And they were the perfect temperature.
The mediocre: the strawberry shake. Syrup overdose. Had some pieces of what I assume we're strawberries. Ok flavor, but it was basically whipped cream and some milk on top of a cup of strawberry syrup.
The terrible: the cheeseburger. It was cold. Not warm. Not even room temperature. It's like they cooked & assembled the burger, then put it in the fridge. I'm on the verge of puking, just typing about it. Couldn't even tell if the flavor was good - it was THAT cold. Like the tomatoes tasted warmer than the meat.
My theory is that they made the burger & shake, but then realized they forgot about the chili fries. Maybe they put the milkshake under a warmer & the burger in the freezer while making the chili fries - I don't know. But I'm now wishing I'd just gone to what-a-carl-donald's-king-n'out-smash-shack.
