Note I’m posting this out of order, but I want to not fall too far behind on my daily posts. We’re back from Jamaica and I’ll be posting each day’s activities the coming week.
Today we had a long travel day, leaving Norse Hill at 3 am to make the trek to Kingston to catch our 8 am flight. But all went well and we’re back home. On the way back to the house, I asked Bay to stop by In-N-Out for a burger. I was craving big time!
Nice to be home…
Can’t go wrong with a juicy burger! Macaroni salad and potato chips were the perfect complement.
Mariko taught a burger and buns class today, which meant we had burgers for dinner! They were delish. 🙂
We bought a poblano pepper but I forgot all about it. Oh well. I’ll roast it anyways for sandwiches or something.
Koa and I were on our own for dinner, and we haven’t had In-N-Out for a while, so… double-doubles were consumed. So yummy!
The next stop on my “Best Burgers of Austin” tour was Jewboy Burgers on Airport Blvd. I ordered “The Jewboy”, which is the basic cheeseburger, and I guess would be a good gauge of the burger menu. I loved it! The patty was grilled to perfection, with a bit of crisp on the edges. The potato bun was great, and the simple toppings of lettuce, pickle, and mustard let the flavor of the beef shine through. Really tasty!
I also ordered a side of crinkle-cut fries and latkes. The latkes were yummy, but the fries are what blew me away. They were perfectly crisp on the outside, yet creamy on the inside. These fries are maybe the best I’ve ever had! I don’t know if they are cut in the restaurant, or bought that way, but they really know how to deep fry them to perfection!
I’d rate the burger as an 8 out of 10, and the fries at a 10!
