Red Robin Birthday Burger

Red Robin Menu, Reviews, Photos, Location and Info - Zomato
For being a part of the Red Robin Royalty program, every year Red Robin gives me a free birthday burger! I usually go with a friend who likes Red Robin burgers, and this year she ate my burger while I got a non-burger menu item from Red Robin. Last year my friend got a veggie fajita at the Red Robin downtown location and was quite pleased with it, so I gave it a go.

Veggie Fajitas ($14.99) Seasoned vegetables, black beans, mushrooms, cabbage and carrots. Served with Cheddar, salsa, sour cream and warm flour tortillas.
  • Tortilla filling come literally steaming hot to your table in a hot dish to help keep it hot. You assemble your own tortillas and when you run out you can ask for more. The kitchen does them in batches so you can't really ask for, say, exactly two more tortillas.
  • Did they forget the seasoning? Tasted horrible and with a bitter aftertaste, probably from the bell peppers.
  • Fortunately made palatable by the salsa, sour cream, cabbage, and cheddar cheese. Shredded cabbage is hiding under the sour cream.
  • Just the flavour is enough to not recommend it. The one redeeming quality however is that this is quite a lot of food and you probably don't need to steal any of your friend's bottomless fries.

Hop-Salt Fries ($6, bottomless) Steak fries hand-salted and seasoned with Tettnang and Hallertau hops, inspired by Samuel Adams Boston Lager
  • DISCLAIMER: I don't drink beer! I ordered these for, you know, science. And for everyone else who doesn't drink beer and is curious but doesn't want to be down $6 yet no wiser. I knew going in it was probably going to be bitter -- I was just hoping for "interesting" too.
  • Strongly bitter aftertaste from the seasoning, enough to make you forget any saltiness that might be on it. You are probably supposed to also eat them with the "Signature Beer Flight" ($4.50) seasonal special currently available. You will already have had a mouthful of bitter stuff and these bitter fries won't faze you at all.
  • If you don't drink beer, chances are you will think "what the hell"? At that point you can either give your order away to a beer-drinking buddy who might possibly appreciate whatever subtle hops flavours are here... or just slather it with the condiments at the table. Heinz ketchup does a fine job of rescuing these fries, and you don't even need that much.
2018-Jul-22 Red Robin - Hop-Salt Fries and fajitas for veggie fajita order

Friendly smiling service on a very hot Sunday afternoon. Not pushy at all about drinks, which I really like, especially when some days you just can't lunch considerable portions and might not even be able to finish one of Red Robin's considerable-portion drinks.

Meet Melissa Gaines and her blurry sexy pics

Oh boy! I had no sooner finished posting about the lovely Taylor Burch responding to my personals ad on Craigslist when Melissa Gaines (e-mailing from erikmcclure858@yahoo.com) mailed me a couple more pictures of her lithe body and selling her profile on the same looks-like-a-phishing-scam site (http://craigslistsafe.net/profiles/melx3/). One of them was an NSFW naked-breasts pic which I haven't posted here (sorry -- but honestly, nothing to write home about, especially with the serious bikini tan lines). Here's the e-mail exchange: Melissa e-mail #1 Here is my picture as attached. Please e-mail me details what you are looking for along with your pictures. Thanks and waiting to hear from you soon.

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.
