Meal: The Classic Burger
Dessert: Bread Pudding
Beverage: Iced tea...not sweet, not in the south anymore, but I didn't want the sugar to alter my taste buds for the meal.
Shrimp - cold smoked, semi sweet, succulent, jumbo shrimp with maple glaze. KC style BBQ sauce on side. Black bean salsa was refreshing and light. Al-dente, room temperature beans. Whoever thought of this appetizer is a genius! You won't want to share with anyone else.
Burger - hearty thick burger with mild, even, beef flavor, not overly seasoned. Wheat bun a little thick. Fries were crispy and perfect. Mustard based dipping sauce was delicate.
Bread pudding with makers mark caramel sauce. Bread light and airy, not characteristic of a bread pudding, but tasty all the same. Whisky adds nice tang to the caramel sauce, and infiltrates the banana slices that swim in the bowl.
