goodolmikeMark and I went to White Castle today. As you may or may not know, it was my first time.
We had just eaten breakfast about an hour before, but THERE IT WAS. I had to go right then.
We ordered the 10-pack "Big Crave". It came with 2 sodas and 2 orders of fries. (Fun Fact: "White Castle Fries Only Come in One Size" - The Beastie Boys)
Observations:
- The sliders taste a lot like the microwave ones.
- They weren't nearly as greasy as I had been warned.
- I thought the restaurant would be gross and tacky, but it was modern and pleasant.
- The fries were really, really good. I was not expecting that.
I vacuumed up all of my food. Mark saved two sliders for later.
It was a big moment for me, and I'm so grateful that I was able to experience it, but I have a confession to make:
I kind of never need to go there ever again. :)

Date: 2010-10-26 03:23 am (UTC)5 sliders = 700 calories and 30 grams of fat
1 fries = 390 calories and 24 grams of fat (assuming the medium sized fries, they do come in 'saver' and 'sack' sizes too)
1 Large Coke = 420 calories
Total: 1510 calories and 54 grams of fat.
Whoo hoo!

Re: Whee!
Date: 2010-10-26 05:49 pm (UTC)Right after we left, I remembered I was going to film it. Nooo! Argh.
Oh well, maybe I'll film my first Skyline Chili...
Re: Whee!
Date: 2010-10-26 06:56 pm (UTC)I'm not a stickler for filming everything, either -- as you can tell by my recent "I'm busy LIVING my life, not blogging/vlogging about it..." lack-of-posts... ;o)
I've never heard of Skyline Chili...
I wonder if I should do a vlog entry from some of the iconic places around here? Hmmm...
One would almost think we were food-obsessed...or camera-whores...or...something. ;o)

Or dramatic re-enactments... [[nods]]
