Free burger from @RedRobinBurgers Royalty

Red Robin Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato All this week, Red Robin Royalty members got a promotion every day -- Tuesday was a free Tavern Burger (your choice from their Tavern Burger lineup, comes with bottomless fries as usual) with $10 purchase.
Didn't want to overeat, so I dragged my burger buddy along!

For our purchase, their limited time Bee's Knees Finest Chicken caught my eye and of course I had to try a burger made with Belgian Waffles!

The Bee's Knees ($14.69, served with bottomless steak fries) all-natural, crispy, tempura-fried chicken breast glazed in Angry Orchard® honey, spicy jalapeño relish, citrus-marinated tomatoes and onions with shredded romaine on a Belgian waffle bun
  • Smallish looking burger but stacked tall -- watch out as it may be tricky to actually pick up and eat.
  • Generously thick chicken breast was nicely done, came hot and meat was moist.
  • Jalapeno is actually spicy-hot but doesn't linger on the tongue, so take a chance on it. If you don't like it, you probably just remove the slice of waffle on which it is spread.
  • Interesting complex flavour with sweet waffle, hot relish, citrusy vinaigrette, and savory meat all together. If you're looking for something interesting I recommend you give this a try.

Fiery Ghost Tavern Double (normally $10.49, served with bottomless steak fries) Fiery Ghost® pepper sauce, pepper-jack cheese, tomato, lettuce, fried jalapeño coins, and fresh jalapeño
  • Looked nothing like the ad copy (of course) and on par with McDonald's burger construction, which is pretty sad.
  • Almost sent it back as a wrong order because I couldn't find any "jalapeno coins" initially. But we looked hard and eventually found one, smushed up and barely recognizable.
  • Came lukewarm, cheese already hardened, gumming the two thin burgers together.
  • Sad to look at, but strangely tasty thanks to the burger patties.

We walked in well after any sort of dinner rush maybe around 8pm. Service was prompt, kitchen was pretty fast, staff friendly and patient. No attempt to upsell us or push us into more orders.

Thanks to the special promotion, these two burger with endless fries option was just under $16, which is a pretty decent deal no matter what they look like.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 3

A picture from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. I can't remember why I had this couple in the picture, but I do vaguely remember this to be in London, on the first official day of the tour group getting together. Their insistence on my helping them take a picture caused the three of us to be late getting back to the bus. The local tour guide had a "rule" about lateness, that we had to buy chocolate to share with everyone. As it turned out, later in the trip, on at least two occasions, we were stuck on the highway on either a long commute or a traffic jam, and I had chocolate and chocolate-covered marzipan to share. About the chocolate-covered marzipan -- Apparently we were in Austria just as they were celebrating Mozart's birthday with special marzipans wrapped in foil with the famous composer's picture. I'm pretty sure it was Mirabell Mozartkugeln . Anyway, there were enough to go around the en...

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 10

The last of my pictures (at least the ones that survived the cheesy disposable cameras) from my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. Below is the obligatory group photo. Not sure everyone's in it, actually. I'm pretty sure this one was taken by the tour director, Mike Scrimshire as I'm in the back row, on the right side.

Trafalgar's European Explorer 2006 memoirs part 9

More assorted couples on my 2006 trip, a Trafalgar 's bus tour, on an itinerary called the European Explorer. An American couple who joked about being from "the land of the giants" -- and with good reason, because both of them were really tall! A cute Jewish mother-daughter pair who ducked out part-way to divert to Israel. I vaguely remember the issue of the daughter being an orthodox Jew was highlighted in France when, to make things easy, she just declared herself vegetarian for the wait staff. I also remember there was some logistics error in France because our party size was way underestimated or simply relayed incorrectly, and there was a shortage of food at dinner. Dessert came as an unopened can of yogurt. It did not seem like they tried to make it up to us later, either. Plus there was smoking every which way in France, and I had a helluva time with that. We were also in a hotel that seemed tucked away in the burbs, and not walking distance from anythin...
