Design Time

Working on a hot sauce label and graphics for a new restaurant. I'll post them when I can. Until then here's what could have been...But, thankfully, Vanilla Bean will be reopening in March. But, a new Coney IS on the way...

500th Post: Double Double Animal Style

Eaten in San Pedro, CA.

Darth Vader and Jedi Burgers from France

New favorite fast food

It's not In-N-Out, but it's the best I have in Helena and I've got mad cravings for the creamy yet subtle blue cheese mixed with A-1 sauce and "Cripsy" onions (soggy onion).

Matt's Place. Butte, MT

Finally made it over to Matt's Place in Butte, Montana. Matt's Place is Montana's first and oldest Drive-Thu. When I rolled in with my parents and daughter there was only one elderly lady having coffee at the end stool. I had a cheeseburger, fries, and a chocolate milkshake which I had to share with my daughter, of course. The burger was amazing. Crisp outer shell and a tender, juicy center. I was surprised to discover the burger didn't come with any mayo, mustard, or ketchup. It was burger, cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickle. (I think there was pickle, I was fairly hungry and munched it down.) One of the more simple, yet better burgers I've had. If you ever find yourself in Butte, Montana seek out Matt's Place.
