Widesky Inn

Had a tour of my new field today with Mr. T. Everyone working in this field/plant are really helpful and courteous...cool beans! After a walkaround in the plant, we all decided to go for a brunch, at the famous Widesky Inn.

The diner at the inn is located at the lobby, and fairly small with ~15 seatings. The owner/waitress were very nice though. So came the menu...they have 1 for breakfast and another for lunch. We took both since some wanted to go lite and others un-lite :)

Breakfast items were regular fare (omelette, pancakes etc), same with the lunch (burgers, sandwiches, and a bunch fried stuff). I wanted to try everything of course, but upon recommendation, I went with the Widesky Burger...hehe

2 patties, 2 bacons, 2 cheese and a ham (can't go wrong!)

Here comes the burger...


It was one of the biggest burger I've seen and eaten to date...a close up for comparison



And stacked...



Managed to finish the whole thing, but boy it was a mess! I swear I could've downed 1-2 more of these, but my fellow friends don't buy it; guess they haven't seen me eat yet ;). But having to work later, I decline to their challenge.

The burger was delicious, juicy, well seasoned, and hot off the grill. Cheese was nicely melted (not runny, but sticks to your mouth). Overall, it's one of the best I've eaten.

4.25/5

Apparently, this is part of the initiation ceremony for this field...don't you wish you had one too?

Diurnal Pabulum: Grilled Sirloin

Went for a quick dinner with a colleague at the airport prior to departure. Always passed by Chili's but never had a chance to try till now. To end a long time, sirloin is the way to goooooo :)





The steak is placed right on top of the garlic toast...bad bad idea as the toast is soaked with oil and mushy. Aside from that, the steak was nicely done, along with the sauteed veggies.

Harvey's Burger

This is the 1st time I ever had Harvey's Burger and I was pleasantly surprised. One of very few fast food joint that make their food fresh and in an open kitchen.

Ordered the chicken burger combo with salad...




The chicken patty was nicely grilled - juicy and moist. The salad dressing was very unique and tasty - black sesame.

Diurnal Pabulum: DQ Cheeseburger


It's been almost a month since I started at DQ now. Apart from the ice cream, this is the 1st time I've had their burger.

Greasy buns, dry patties, and soggy veggies. Let's just say...try another joint for a burger :) (or maybe it's just not my day for a burger). Try it and I'll let you be the judge.

Diurnal Pabulum: BBQ Burgers & Dogs

Yes, it's hot dogs of course!

It was rainy out in Richmond, and bro and I were just travelling around hunting for BBQ and roasted pork when we stumble upon a BBQ event.

It was quite the lineup of people and grubs. We sure had our fills :)
