On Saturday, after the St. Patrick's Day Parade, we decided to try a new tavern in our neighborhood. It's worth a try, you know to support new/neighborhood establishments, especially those we can walk to. So we set out.Upon perusal of the menu, I realized that this was not any menu. In fact here was an opportunity to see if I could beat the system/swing for the fences/take on the man. Alas, my doctor won't let me eat beef, pork, or anything that is measured in pounds plus complete digestion. Ed's Challenge (see photo) is a 2.5 pound burger, 12 strips of bacon, 12 slices of cheese, 2 pounds of fries, 2 pickles and a soda. Whew, I am both sweating and feeling heavier thinking about it.
The crazy thing is that consumption of said cholesterol bomb results in being recognized on the wall in an ironic way to point out that eating such will not make one live longer, except on the wall at Ed's Tavern. Although when Ed's is extinct, what then?
