| Taking the have it your way mantra to the extreme, The Counter creates a safe haven for even the pickiest eater while managing to serve up great food fast, rather than doling out bland fast food. The concept is basic: check off your choices on a paper menu pad, much the way you might select your meal in a neighborhood sushi joint. First your burger: organic beef, turkey or veggie; then choose the size: one third, one half or a staggering 1 pound burger. Then on to toppings and sauces, with over 24 choices including Danish blue cheese, garlic aïoli, corn and black bean salsa and peanut sauce. We recommend a combination of grilled pineapple and green chiles. We also love the Fifty-Fifty, a side of fries and shoestring onion rings. It's the perfect size for two, without feeling a grease overload. For the Atkins fanatic, there's also a burger-in-a-bowl option that features your favorite burger served in a lettuce bowl. At lunch its quick counter service, but in the evening and on weekends you can enjoy full table service at the same price. Don't leave without tasting the giant chocolate chip cookie, a warm Toll House fantasy gone wild. |
