Note: This is going to hit my Tumblr at some point tomorrow. I'm stuck at home for Thanksgiving and I decided to start a mini food blogs of sorts.

Scouting Food and Stuff


First:
  • all this shit is on the 2-8 baseball scout scale. 2 is awful, 5 is average, 8 is amazeballs level of wizadry.
  • All restaurants are judged against like restaurants. I'm not comping MCD against Gibsons or anything like that. That would be stupid.
  • All my opinions are probably stupid as well.
  • Enjoy.

White Castle

  • Burger: Overall the patty meat is a fucking 3, only being saved by the way it works with the cheese which is simultaneously nauseating and delicious, especially when one is drunk.
  • Condiments: 2. Definite 2. This is some struggle food right here.
  • Bun: This is where they get you because the Bun is actually a 6. It's nice, soft and warm.
  • Presentation: 3. Look at that thing. It looks awful.
  • Customer Service: 4. Hard to judge because the crew is always rotating. What gets me is that no matter who you put in that WC uniform they look much stupider/less attractive. You could put Shakira in that thing and she'd get knocked down to...well no I guess I'm wrong on that one. Whatever, you get my point.
  • Overall: 4, can play up to a 5. Really the intangibles make this sucker replacement level.

Clearly didn't address the biggest strength of WC which is the taste when you are completely bombed.

I'd have to be bombed again while eating it...which happens far too often.

Or an 8. Depending on how you look at it.

I wasn't sure if those were the intangibles you were referring to or not. And to be honest I am not certain I've ate at White Castle without being highly inebriated.

Lol. Some places are just like that. Anyone ever been to a Denny's not completely fucked up in the wee hours of the morning? I know I haven't. Can't recall a time in my life where someone said "let's go grab lunch somewhere" and we ended up at Denny's.

Actually I have been to Denny's in the wee hours not fucked up on more than one occassion. That is kind of strange I think.

You can go to Denny's sober?

Maybe not. Maybe I'm just strange. I just know that 90% of the time I've been in that place, it was preceded by "lesssss getttt breakfasssss" about 30 mins before closing time.

My friend used to insist on going there after some wild nights because it was one of the last places you could go eat and smoke.

You need to go to another restaurant. I've never seen burgers like that.

What About the amazing pickle? Best breakfast around too. They use real eggs and wheat bread.

Plus the Angus steak chili is to die for

There should be a warning on the boxes of White Castle Sliders that say, "May Cause Flu Like Symptoms". Other than 1-4 hours of nausea after eating them, they're good burgers.
