211th New Thing - Ate at Burger Works


I didn't have time to post last night, therefore I'm posting this late as this occurred yesterday (Fri 5/18/12).
 
There is a new eatery next to Matt's place of work that is opening soon. They had a soft opening this week and since they are next door, they gave Matt a free sneak peak where he could invite friends to come as well. The place that is opening is Red Robin's Burger Works. It is the 3rd restaurant opening of its kind. Burger Works is a fast-casual concept with a simplified, lower-price, limited-service of burgers, beer, and wine, basically a smaller Red Robin. These burgers are priced at $5.99 and are 1/3 pound, the same as regular-size Red Robin burgers. Burger Works will offer customers a Build Your Own Burger customization option. Free burger add-ons include mayonnaise, chipotle mayo, thousand island dressing, house bourbon BBQ sauce, thai chili ketchup, red’s relish, pickles, lettuce, Roma tomatoes, jalapeños, raw, or grilled onions, beer mustard onions, and Fire-Roasted Salsa. Premium add-ons are Cheddar, Swiss, Pepper Jack, or American cheese (50¢ each); guacamole ($1); apple-smoked bacon ($1); onion straws ($1); sautéed portobello mushrooms ($2); fried egg ($1)' or extra beef patty ($2). I did Build Your Own Burger with Pepper Jack cheese, chipotle mayo, bacon, guacomole, lettuce, and tomato on a Brioche Bun. I also got a side salad and root beer. I think my total would've been about $11 but was free last night. Matt got a Whiskey River BBQ Burger (Signature Bourbon BBQ Sauce, Cheddar cheese, crispy onion straws, lettuce, tomato, and mayo, on a Brioche Bun) with sweet potato fries (with Thai Chili Ketchup) and a Diet Coke. As we were finishing, a waitress also brought a free hand-spun chocolate shake for our table to share. It was a thick and delicious chocolate shake. The place was pretty busy for this special event. The food was good, I was really full as I'm not used to eating that much!

What did you do today?

111th New Thing - Took a Zyrtec

If you recall, I went to the dermatologist to get a skin screening for the 1st time back in December. When I was there, the doctor did a biopsy of 1 of the moles on my back (which came back as normal, by the way). The area was healing pretty well until about 2 weeks ago. The area around the wound started getting bigger instead of smaller and oozing. Therefore, I went back to my doctor to check it out. She said I was having an allergic reaction to something, probably the Neosporin . She gave me some new ointment, Vanos , and said I should take Zyrtec until the area starts to get better. Vanos (fluocinonide) Cream is indicated for the relief of the inflammatory and pruritic manifestations of corticosteroid responsive dermatoses in patients. Best results are seen if used twice per day. Zyrtec (cetirizine) is an antihistamine that reduces the effects of natural chemical histamine in the body. Histamine can produce symptoms of sneezing, itching, watery eyes, and runny nose. Zyrtec can be u
