RAIN.....RAIN......LaJolla, too!

Well we made it to the "Burger Lounge". The trip was wet but well worth it..we meet Trudy and her friend Rich there in LaJolla.  I look forward to seeing Trudy every Christmas!  We had so much fun talking about the "good ole' days".
Rich and Trudy

"Roomies"

Another Burger of "renown"!



The interior and the menu.















The presentation of the meal was excellent.  Great egg buns with very thin patties.  The shop was very small with only enough seats for about 10 customers.  We lucked out and all four of us got to sit together. We had a great time, but looking forward to being able to spend more time together on our next visit.

SmashBurger at Hazard Center

Cold and RAINY!!!!!!
A cold, cloudy, windy and rainy day here in beautiful San Diego.
We decided to use the trolley today to go to Fashion Valley and
find the hamburger of the day.








Fashion Valley wasn't even hustling and bustling especially considering it is the Monday before Christmas....... strange.  The Apple Store on the other hand was PACKED.




SmashBurger was at the Hazard Center, so we gave it a try.
Bruce rates it 4th for the hamburger and 2nd on the fries.








Love the bold Decor...
Where's the Sweet Potato Fries?
YUMM great condiments and Fries


 The fries are made with rosemary and Parmesan cheese....YUMMM!
Sweet potato fries were really good, too!

It was quite a drive, but well worth it.  Shan and Steve helped us indulge on this one......

Probably rating 3rd on the Burger and 4th or 5th on the Crinkle Fries.
