OT: Good food news- Hunter House coming to AA

I have to tell you that is the same way I felt about In N Out the first time I went. A woman I knew was enamored with In N Out, saying they are the only burgers she eats and the fries were great. My first time was good, but nothing special. Tasted kind of different. Fries were interesting. The more I go the more I appreciate it and love it. From my experience the difference is kind of strange because not many places have fresh ingredients and my taste buds weren't used to it. The fries actually maintained their potato taste since they weren't frozen. Maybe different from your experience, but thought I'd share.

People say this about in n out a lot, so here's my piece: if you're expecting in n out to completely blow your mind, you'll be disappointed. But if you want delicious, fresh, cheap fast food, it's the best option ever. Sure, if you compare it to a gourmet burger joint or a unique one-off burger shop, it might not stack up. But if you want lunch for 6 bucks (in CA), there are no better options.

Did you order the "animal style" burger and ask for extra (free) grilled onions? It's on their (not-so-)secret menu.

For more than 30 years and agree about In N Out.  The fries are just.....bad; burger OK at best.

This is very good news! Hunter House is the best spot for sliders that I know and has been for decades. It's an institution to those that know it and will be a great addition to AA. If you want a fast food style burger hit In-N-Out burger or something similar. HH is definitely not that type of place. It does what it does with sliders and cheese fries. Make sure you get the grilled onions and pickles.

It's absolutely worth a try and just gave me another reason to head back to AA (not that I needed one)!!

Maybe we need a Birmingham mgoblog meetup at Hunter House. I'll even chip in $15 to pay for Brian Ace and Seth.

Are you from Romeo by chance?

I've always thought it too. Apparently Ferrell did a video interview with fans (Redditt maybe) where he 'confessed' that he as actually Chad Smith. Smith came out with a rebuttal. Both pretty good sports about it, funny stuff.

New Kickstarter for an MGoCafe...maybe a co-op of some sort with Brian's face on the front.  I'm open for suggestions of additional marketing ideas. 

Burgers and hot dogs are two of my favorite foods, but at the end of the day, both are still ground (or emulsified) meat. I can't think of a single thing that makes a burger or dog "memorable". Can some taste better than others? Sure. Memorable? I don't know.

I was excited to point out there's already a Hunt House in Ann Arbor on the 3rd and 4th floors of South Quad, because that'd totally sway Hunter House's decision.

Van Tyne (Markley) FTW.
