Saturday lunch at Rockbottom

[KMcK]

To those who haven't been following the grain/hops pickup catastrophe in Group Buys, we're meeting at Rockbottom on Saturday at noon for lunch. Everyone is invited to join us.

The bar is open at ten, but the kitchen isn't open until noon, so you can get your booze in the morning but you're not allowed to eat with it. That must be an NSLC regulation.

Good to see somebody else looking after business in the wee hours. IIRC, Nash is tapping a firkin at noon.

Would be interested in coming but will be away this weekend. Next time

Also of note is that anyone who ordered hops from the PEI group they will be availabe for pickup at the RB at this brunch.

Hmmm. We were planning to catch Pina at Park Lane tomorrow, and hit RB for the firkin. Maybe we'll try for an afternoon showing.

Mother nature has foiled my plans to make it down it seems. Hoping that I'll be able to shuffle some things around next weekend and make it down for the NCM pickup.

Awesome turnout indeed. Thanks for coming out guys! Blew the Pin of Black Tea Weizen around 4:30.

We have a new chef starting Tuesday so we should see a nice improvement with the food soon

I think people want the insane jalapeno burger back on the menu...if it ever was there....

The firkin/pin beer was really great btw....

That looks like an awesome turn out - really sad I missed it.

I had this burger on Friday. It was pretty tasty (better than most burgers in this city!), but I just got a little cup of jalapeño to add myself - I was hoping for a lot more jalapeño. I'm guessing this comment means that the burger has changed in the last couple weeks?

[mr x]

I don't know what the fuck happened the day me and Nash ordered the burgers with jalapenos. I swear to god, there were more peppers than burger. But apparently, that never happened, as the chef said jalapenos cost too much to ever do that...

I guess I created some kind of urban burger myth.

Looks like I missed a great event. I will take solace in my consumption of beers in Miami last week. Crazy good stuff. Zeke's Roadhouse on Lincoln Ave. in South Beach and the DAB (Democratic Republic of Beer) 14th at Biscayne Blvd in Miami both highly recommended.

The Rockbottom burger was good when I had it a few weeks ago, but the patty was too small for the bun. I had the avocado turkey burger on Saturday. It was properly proportioned, including the avocado (most places put way too much on it resulting in a sloppy mess). The only fault was the the bun was cold.

[ratchet]

ahhhhh... the famed meat-to-bun-to-condiment ratio
