Happy birthday to me!

So my birthday was back on Friday, not today. I took the afternoon off (hence the recent deluge of photos) and made my first pilgrimage to Kuma's Corner for a birthday burger.

 

While I'd heard the horror stories about the wait, I managed to grab a seat at the bar after only 10 minutes or so.

 

What you see up there is the "Lair of the Minotaur": a 10oz medium-rare burger on a pretzel roll topped with carmelized onions, pancetta, a generous slab of brie, and a bourbon-soaked pear. Add some waffle fries and a Three Floyds Gumballhead and I had me quite the birthday feast.

 

Hungry yet?
