there's a new restaurant, my sister says...want to try it?
sure, i say.
one condition, she says...you have to eat their impossible burger.
*insert ewww emoji*
while i'd been hearing the name, impossible, i didn't pay much attention to the commercials and assumed it was just a big burger that was impossible to finish. i recently discovered it was a brand of plant-based [meatless] meat. i also read and heard reviews, including my sister's, that it tasted just like meat!
ohhhkay, then...i'm goen for it!
i'm goen to need a cocktail to wash this down!
we started with the mushroom fries. they were really good, but i was starting to wonder when the real food would show up!
we ended up sharing an impossible burger which truly was impossible for me to finish...even half of it. but, whew, real potato fries here!
first bite was great...just like a hamburger. as i continued to eat, my mind wanted to taste the plants, but the patty was seasoned well enough that i couldn't taste a difference while eating it altogether with the bun and tomato and lettuce and fries. however, there's a very slight difference in texture which might give it away if you ate the patty alone. it's moist and doesn't have the same toughness or chewiness as meat sometimes has.
overall, the impossible burger at goen dining + bar was tasty and enjoyable; i would order it again. i can't promise a fast food version will be as good.
goen lychee martini.
weekends are for brunch...these are their waffles.
have you tried the impossible burger yet?
tell me your thoughts on it!
