Grilled Cheese

So, not to lie, but I've never been a big fan of grilled cheese. The other day I was getting a burger at the Grill Zone, and my friend Will got grilled cheese. After he was done he told me that this station made a pretty darn good grilled cheese sandwich, and I didn't think much of it...but tonight, for a change of pace, I decided to try their grilled cheese. And it was delicious. I can't say that I've enjoyed too many restaurants' grilled cheese sandwiches, but I loved what I ate tonight. They use standard American cheese, but what made it so appealing was their bread. Their toast tasted like that from Whataburger, which is quite appealing. Its soft, but with a little bit crunchier exterior. Along with the grilled cheese sandwich I had a bottle of water, which was a great compliment to wash down the very flavorful sandwich. And, the coffee which I had, from Coates, was quite good as well...with two Sweet n' Lows and some skim milk. I had this so I can stay up and study, yet the food is hearty enough to hold me over til I go to bed. I must say, for anyone who isn't a huge fan of grilled cheese, try Grill Zone's.

Grill Works...a little bit

Today I had a nice American meal from Grill Works. Grill Works is the burger bar up at Coates. The reason I chose to eat there today is because generally around 12:30 PM, when I get out of my class on Monday, Wednesday and Friday, there is a monstrous line in Coates for the sandwich bar and I generally don't eat the school's pizza. My favorite item at Grill Works is the turkey burger with bacon and pepperjack cheese. I prefer a turkey burger compared to the standard Angus burger because it is leaner, healthier meat (leaner meaning it contains less fat.) The reason I choose pepperjack cheese is not only because I like a spicier meal, but I like to mock my sandwiches after those from Whataburger. In my favorite Whataburger burgers they include pepperjack and bacon, the two things which I make sure are on mine. In addition to pepperjack and bacon, at Whataburger I get jalapenos on my burger, therefore I do the same at Grill Zone. After they are done cooking my burger, I bring it over to the condiment bar. From there I include lettuce, red onions, pickles and ketchup. If I feel hungry enough I'll also make second order...of mozzarella sticks. Mozzarella sticks, here at least, are only good with marinara sauce. Because this is not what one would call a particularly light meal, I prefer water with this because water doesn't have too overwhelming of a flavor and doesn't fill you up like a soda or Gatorade would.
