The latest addition to the Freehold Raceway Mall arrived on Wednesday morning when Bobby Flay opened his newest Bobby's Burger Palace.
The restaurant offers wide variety of options including his well known hamburgers, sandwiches and sides, and there was a crowd waiting to try the food and meet the Iron Chef himself.
The business opening had a charitable beginning: $1 of the purchase price of every burger sold during the first week of operation will go to The Foodbank of Monmouth and Ocean Counties.
There were 100s of small independent computer dealers - they all went out of business when people started buying direct from Dell and catalogs - prior to the internet. Now people order from Amazon - does that mean they are hurting the small business owner. In many cases - no - since the order is being fulfilled from Amazon but actually sold by a small 3rd party... We can go back and forth on this all day - the point was that I felt that it was unfair to Bobby and the establishment to complain about a place or the value of the place based on never ordering a single thing - except to say that they might have been expensive. I don't eat at Le Cirque - but you won't hear me saying that the local diner is a better value or has better food - because I can't make an honest comparison... I do understand what you were getting at - but I think it does a disservice to the people who work there - and Bobby himself who invested money into our area to bring jobs and choices for us. Yes - we have the diner as well - but people can frequent both on alternating weeks and make everyone happy.
I don't eat Turkey burgers - or Veggie burgers - but some people might consider either of them healthier than beef. I'm not sure if the fat in the particular turkey burgers is more than their beef - it's not a decision that I'm really making. Anything in moderation is fine - that goes for beef, wine, ice cream, etc.
I really wish I understood what in the world you are rambling about. It's offensive to even say that anyone is home "playing with themselves" when the conversation is not about false idols - pyramids in chains - great people's name - or the end of the world. We were talking about hamburgers here. God or evolution has nothing to do with hamburgers.. I wish I had some kind of decoder to better understand the kind of crazy that seem to have going on in your mind. I'm sure it would be interesting to study - but who has that kind of time to devote.... The only pyramid being discussed here is the food pyramid....
Now I really regret typing the above about you rambling. It's clear you are just crazy and loves to quote all kinds of crazy stuff.. I heard that the end of the world is coming soon - you want to get on your soap box and talk about that? a) Who is giving our collective power/money to a chosen few? b) Are you saying that it's a dead end game for the vast majority - and a living hell for the few survivors? c) So you are saying that our role models are pop, movie and ball stars? You don't sound negative to me.. So I'm going to try to better understand what you are saying.. So you believe that the 1% - the free masons are controlling our society. They are using the old Roman - bread and circus method to control us. Give us a few food ball games, a few movie stars - some war that we can watch on TV and we are all happy. Then they use the press (which they control) to broadcast images of superficial false idols to occupy us so we don't notice their plans. Yes - pretty soon - the meek are going to inherit everything... Gotcha - you are crazy.... Hamburgers - remember - this is about hamburgers.....
We don't have collective neurotransmitters.... I don't want to "homogenize the world" I would rather people make their own choices. So you want to change the world? Don't worry about the 5lb monster burger - go do something that makes a difference. Go help someone in need. I'm pretty sure that no one is going to be changed by your words here - and I'm talking about the crazy rant about false idols. Make a difference in one life - worry about your contribution. Don't worry about converting the rest of us. Your example of piety will lead the way for all of us to follow.. For me - it's about the burger. For you - it's about bed rest, hoarding and posting crazy false idol nonsense...
You would think they would be consistent.... I would try it again - you might have had an off day. I would also say something to them if something is not right. One time I was at Bobby's and the fries were all 1/4 inch long - like it was the end of the basket - I said something and they brought me new fries.. Simple enough - I was annoyed by it - but they did the right thing.... k
I'm going to second Lisa. Thanks for your comments. I really enjoyed them.
I take it you are an old and bitter man who has kids that don't talk to him - sits around and tries to get everyone to see the error of their ways... I am the manager at the burger joint. Do I like cheese? So now you are trying to say that managers at fast food places are someone stupid or contribute less? I should elevate my priorities? You are the one here ranting about false idols.
