Well, I was laid off last week. Hamburger Day took a hit while I was working since we were pretty busy at the time, but now with some unexpected free time and the need to drown my sorrows, I threw together a last minute HAMBURGER DAY. This time we braved the wilds of my backyard and ventured out to O'Tooles in Royal Oak.
Richard & Terry showed up as well as Freon. We had a nice time. And they were haveing a $3 special for burger and fries. The $3 burger was a bit small and a bit dry, but still very edible. Also I had an ulterior motive for O'Tooles. You see, I have been there several times, but never gotten a burger there. They have a good corned beef sandwich and very good fish & chips. But my favorite thing they have are the PEPPERJACK CHEESE CUBES! Spiced, deep fried chees balls. MUCH better than bland mozzerella sticks. These used to be available year ago at Mr. B's in Royal Oak, but they stopped serving them, much to the chagrin of their patrons. O'Tooles has them, but they are not ON the menu. But if you can ask for them.
We'll have to go back for their standard burger in the future. The $3 was okay...not great, but for $3 I'm not really complaining. And theiur sides are great. So go on out and check them out. They also throw a great St. Patty's Day bash and have a nice beer selection.
And a PS: If you opt for their cobb salad, as Richard did, they will warn you it's very large. Well thay ain't layin'! It's huge! You have practically ordered an old-frowth forest...with cheese.
This blog is dedicated to seeking out the best in the burger arts. We travel around southeast Michigan (sometimes further) to find the best in hamburgers.
