I like food. I don’t just make it, I eat it, too. This means there is a greater than average chance that I will have some one else make my food.
It may sound odd, but I love ‘just better than fast food’ places. Tonight, I went to Red Robin and had a good meal.
I love their Mac and Cheese. I love it better with some of their grilled chicken mixed in. It was perfect for a blustery evening, even if the Badgers didn’t win the Rose Bowl.
The thing with Red Robin is that they will custom make just about anything you want, within reason. They are known for letting you pick and choose and combine on the burgers, so why not with other things? Even the manager thought it was a great combination.
I do have to admit that, with the chicken and side salad(lemon wedges for dressing) it was almost 2000 kcal for the meal. The salt is also an issue, but I just love the presentation, and I can always split it and take a goodly portion of it home.
Thank you to Kim and the crew at Red Robin for making my evening a glorious one.
