Burgers for the road #4: Big A Burger, Truth or Consequences, New Mexico


For sir: Green Chile Cheeseburger, small fries, diet coke.
For Madame: Green Chile Cheeseburger, small tots, sprite.
Good burgers! Soft, slightly sweet buns, lightly toasted filled with perfectly cooked 1/3lb beef patties which bore no trace of greasyness1. Topped with a fresh spicy green chilli stew, lettuce, tomato, onion and pickles. Fries were solid and showed evidence of a steady hand at the deep frier2 but paled in comparison to the tots. Half croquette, half hash brown, all deep fried - its a travesty that don't we have these crispy, crunchy little fellas in the UK. Write to your local MP and frozen food manufacturer and demand action immediately.

A near perfect meal only marred by an excess of raw onion in my burger; next time I'm passing through I may ask them to grill it for me, by which point I may have stopped burping my way through the first batch.
Kate loved the banquettes. And the tots.
