Mighty Fine

Here's how you get my family to think a burger joint is the best place to eat in the entire world:

1) Greet and serve us with grins even though we place and replace and replace eight orders.
2) Tell us to pick, "Red, Yeller' or White" in a fabulous Texan accent for condiment choices on our burgers.
3) Provide the best and cleanest entertainment for my children I could have ever imagined, ensuring we have the most sterile hands this side of the Pecos since they were washed before, during, again during and after our meal.
4) Have a man who obviously has My Sweetie's (and my son's) sense of humor design the men's bathroom, giving it a very large two way mirror. The boys/men can take care of urinal business right in front of a window, making it seem like they are using the bathroom in front of the entire restaurant, snickering with joy. Meanwhile, the rest of us sit and chat totally clueless to the hysterical attraction the men's bathroom suddenly has on all males in the joint.

5) Put time and effort into designing the women's restroom so that my daughters come out saying, "Mama, it's like Extreme Home Makeover in there!"
6) Serve up big juicy delicious all natural beef burgers and crisp fries.

7) Offer only Blue Bell as the option for shakes.

Ladies and gentlemen, if you haven't discovered Mighty Fine, please allow me to share the joy. Head there the next time you are in the finest state capital in this country (that would be Austin, in case you're a Yankee and you are confused).

We saw a billboard touting a burger raved about in Texas Monthly and decided it would be worth the effort to find. How right we were, pardner'. It felt like a little amusement park stop with delicious food and added a whole 'nuther level of fun to our road trip.

Definitely a Mighty Fine pit stop.

(Even though I couldn't figure out how to fit the CleanTech500 in the back of my suburban!)

(My apologies to my ex-pat Texan readers for the tease... at least you can add something to your next stateside trip! ;-))
