Just because you're eating alone doesn't mean you have to settle for fast food. Pull up a chair at the bar in Houston's. I have recently been re-introduced to "bar eating" as I call it by a good friend of mine. So when I was alone for lunch the other day and was not feeling like fast food, I went into the nearest Houston's and took a seat at the bar. I felt a little out of place as everyone else there seemed to be regulars with their regular orders, their regular beverages, etc. Even though I was an outsider I got good and friendly service. I ordered the cheeseburger. (You may notice I order a lot of cheeseburgers for lunch at fancy restaurants - I have a thing for good, huge, medium rare cheeseburgers and fancy restaurants do them the best). The cheeseburger was very, very good. Nice and greasy, dripping down my hands. The french fries were less than satisfactory. They were skinny fries. I am not a big fan of skinny fries. I like big, fat, crispy steak fries - or crinkle fries.
So, I ate the cheeseburger and left the fries. Well, I left MOST of the fries.
Next time I'm alone at lunch - look for me at the bar at Houston's.
