03/02/15 | Snow... well... not really snow.

It's Christmas in March!



Since I've been in Fort Worth Texas, I've seen more ice than snow. This is a perfect example.  These tiny ice balls hit you and the ground, and accumulate. From a distance of even a few inches it looks like snow. But touch it, or walk on it, and you will discover... it's not snow.

This ice crunches. It's not fluffy. It's slippy to walk on. It's DANGEROUS to drive on! It's like trying to drive on an ice skating rink.If you hear a warning of freezing rain, or sleet accumulations... plan on not going to work, even if your job is dumb enough to open and ask you to be there. At 7am this morning, there was already one fatality on the I-30.

However, on the other the lighter side, it's really fun to slide in!

Smash Burger @ Las Colinas

SmashBurger Spicy Jalepeno Burger

 

Smash Burger

Las Colinas 

Tel: 214-302-2681
975 West John Carpenter Freeway
Irving, TX 75039


This one is going on my "Best Burgers" list!

Overview


The actual building has a Chipotle feel, in that there are menus up front to look at while you are in line, you walk to one side to the counter and order, then go find your seat. The building itself has the same type of set up and decor.

You don't; however, build your own as in front you. You just order from the menu, they hand you a number, and they'll bring it out when it's ready. Soda selection is basic. Dr. Pepper is a must, and it's there!

The burger was AWESOME! I got he Spicy Jalepeno Baja Burger and SmashFries.

The SmashFries are tossed in OliveOil and Garlic.

The Burger was topped with onions and guacamole, with slices of fresh raw Jalepeno. The bun was a a great sponge texture.

Cost

Burger, Drink, and Fries are A La Carte, (you buy each sperately). For two burgers, one fries, and one drink, it was about $19.00 +/-.

Kids

Kids menu has burger, hot dog, or chicken strips (with fries and drink).

Tips to enjoy it better...

Don't get thrown off... the sign makes you think you are approaching a GameStop (same color and design to the sign). Look twice.


Final Thoughts

This was a good burger. Definitely one I will go back to, and definitely one that will be added to my list!
