Lauren Posted October 13, 2005 Share Posted October 13, 2005 I had lunch at Blue Moon yesterday with Rocky and his brother. (Rocky, you must really like this place - you've been three times!). I had a single bacon burger with cheese. I really liked the burger - like Della said, it was wet enough for me and had a distinctive smoky flavor that I loved. Plus there was enough cheese and it didn't slide off the burger in one mass - always a good thing. We also had an order on onion rings and fries to share. I have to say I didn't care for either. The fries were thick cut, real potatoes, which is good. But too limp for my preference. Rocky said the onion rings were not enormous like last time. They were so perfectly shapped that, for a second, I thought they we fake. Thak goodness they aren't. But I still didn't love them. They weren't cooked enough for the onion to be truly soft and the batter was kind of blah. I got a chocolate, peanut butter shake to take back to the office and it was pretty good. One of the best things Blue Moon has going for it is the staff. They are super friendly and seem to be having a good time. You give your name when you order and, when I went back after lunch to order my shake, they remembered my name. Shocking considering I'd never been there before and there was a steady stream of people while we were there. It's not in a neighborhood I go to often, but I'll definitely go back next time I am.

elswinger Posted November 2, 2005 Share Posted November 2, 2005 I had a great burger at Jitterbug. The patty was hand-formed and they cooked it medium rare, like I ordered it. The bun was good too. I also recommend the burger at Norm's eatery. When you ask for medium rare, you get medium rare. The mushrooms are thin slices of portabello. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

LaurieA-B Posted November 12, 2005 Share Posted November 12, 2005 I'm not a burger connoisseur, but wanted to mention that when we had lunch at Geraldine's Counter yesterday, Matthew really liked his burger (cooked medium, as ordered). They're now open for dinner (as well as lunch and breakfast). The regular fries were pretty good, and next time we'll try the sweet potato fries. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Lauren Posted December 5, 2005 Share Posted December 5, 2005 Gee, better late than never I guess! To recap our past BoM choices: Palace Kitchen- Anita The Maple Leaf Grill- Jan Jaks- Rocky Bad Alberts- Reese Sterling Café- Reese Collins Pub- Tighe Hi Life- FaiJai Sport- Wendy 35th Street Bistro – Eden Blue Moon - Margaret And December's selection is......drumroll please......... Market Street Grill in Ballard They offer a kobe beef burger which is 10 ounces and ground in-house. They are only open for dinner, so I hope that won't be too prohibitive for anyone. If anyone is open next Monday, Tuesday or Wednesday we can go as a group. Say at 6:30? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
