I am trying out every top snackbar, frituur, imbis, bbq or burger joint I can find on my travels. The holy grail is not some boring small nouvelle cuisine meal, but rather the juiciest burger, the tastiest french fries, the most tenders ribs. It's snack time!

Posting these reports often took too much time for, to be perfectly honest, too few views. I assume most readers are more interested in the pictures than the text and that makes Instagram perfect. I can upload and post as I eat (well, after I clean my hands, of course). I hope you will follow me there too.</span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span></p><p style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;">Link: https://www.instagram.com/mypigoutspots/</span><br /></p>Grondhopperhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13208125467285704837noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-980892278225096624.post-3075636539519047942022-08-05T13:03:00.002-07:002022-08-05T13:03:29.251-07:00The National (Athens, GA)<span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">232

many ways, <a href="http://www.thenationalrestaurant.com/">The National</a> is
the antithesis of a pig out spot. It is one of the few fancier restaurants in
the Southern college town of Athens, which is known and loved for its high-quality
food. But it recently put some pig out foods on its lunch menu, including a burger
and falafel, so I checked it out.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">I
get the Smash Burger ($15), which are two smashed patties (prepared on the
griddle) with bacon jam, dill pickles, red onion, lettuce, and tomato on a soft
bun (I eat it without cheddar cheese). The burger is juicy and has good flavor,
but is a bit sweeter than I prefer – I am more a spicy than sweet kind of guy.
The “home fries” are thick cubes of fried potato, which they also use for their
delicious Patatas Bravas (dinner menu), which are perfectly prepared, although the
potato is a bit light. My wife and I also get two scoops of the homemade Gelato
($4 a scoop). This week’s flavors include Peach, which is ok, and Chocolate-Hazelnut,
which is creamy and tasty and covered with crushed hazelnuts (scrumptious).</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

a pig out spot point of view, this is a very nice, if somewhat gourmet, smash
burger and fries. </span></span></p>

types of bar food. It has a very cool vibe.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

get a Pita Gyros ($8.14), Greek style, which means a mix of beef and lamb meat.
The meat is not freshly cut/shaved from a skewer, but rather several thick
pieces of ground meat that have been cut off earlier and is then reheated on
the griddle, which makes it a bit crusty. The pita is thick and soft but there
are too few vegetables and sauce on it, which makes the pita mostly taste like salty
meat.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"><a href="https://sluttyveganatl.com/">Slutty Vegan</a> is a new chain out of
Atlanta that serves vegan burgers and sandwiches (fried chicken, hot dogs) and
fries as well as some desserts. It is Black-owned and the story of founder and
CEO Pinky Cole is inspirational! Slutty Vegan currently has five locations in
and around Atlanta, with Athens being the furthest, but is opening new
locations outside of Georgia soon. Inside, the music is extremely loud — to the
extent that you can’t understand the people behind the register, and they can’t
understand each other — and the personnel (has to) do an annoying loud routine
when you come in and leave. All burgers have sex-themed names, are made with
Beyond Meat, and come only in (pricey) combos. Weirdly, you cannot eat inside
or outside, while there is no drive-thru.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

get the Sloppy Toppy ($15), which comes with lettuce, tomato, caramelized
onions, fresh jalapeños, and “slut sauce” on a vegan Hawaiian bun. It looks
messy and tastes mostly like a whopper, but one with a good kick because of the
jalapeños and sauce. The fries are thick wrinkle-cut, but they lack a bit of flavor,
despite the light seasoning.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

</span></span><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">While I love everything about the story of Slutty Vegan, it is not for me. Then again, I am not the target audience. To be honest, there
is no reason to go here if you are not vegan. It is crazy loud, you cannot eat inside
or outside, and the food is expensive and not remarkable. However, if you are
vegan, this place comes as close to the “real” experience as anything I have ever seen.</span></span></p>

Burger (CHF 19.50 or ~$20). It doesn’t look like much; regular bun, big pieces
of lettuce, thick slice of tomato, thick patty, and a bit of sauce. However,
the meat is really juicy and very tasty, while the spicy sauce gives it a good
kick. With a more subtle bun and less lettuce this would have been killer.

small mall, outside the center of the small town of Weißenburg in Bayern. It has
fries, sausages, meat balls (though not today), and somewhat surprisingly
burgers. Interestingly, for the first time in my life, the people working in
the stand ask me to take a picture without them in it.</span></span></p><span style="font-family: georgia;"><span style="font-size: large;">

also add lettuce and some weird kind of salad dressing. All of this comes in
Turkish bread, not Greek pita. The bottom, which is mostly Greek, is pretty

just off the famous KaDeWe, which is part of the Hauptburger chain. It serves
three types of smash burgers, one type of fried chicken burger, and fries.</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"> I get the Double Fried Onion Chili Burger (€8), which is two extremely juicy smashed beef patties, thin sliced
onions, jalapenos, homemade pickles and chipotle sauce on a brioche bun. Not sure
where the chili comes in. But this is a very juicy and tasty burger, despite
the rather minor kick.</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"> </span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxOF02rL2KsFNMuUab5VirGt4P7H8EsW2ahj3ecmVmkL4iNvAKdP959Ydv07TEB_NZQbejcZP78G35eYzFL4B58l51MItQsCIJm49GaiBCthaxARjvAMn-jwHiaRo_sVJKyYqKRhupNxiMvH6RcjMxFVonxSbm4C6YNAwB30t3OqvLZHeCwkR8I4Yq/s4032/2.Food.heic" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgxOF02rL2KsFNMuUab5VirGt4P7H8EsW2ahj3ecmVmkL4iNvAKdP959Ydv07TEB_NZQbejcZP78G35eYzFL4B58l51MItQsCIJm49GaiBCthaxARjvAMn-jwHiaRo_sVJKyYqKRhupNxiMvH6RcjMxFVonxSbm4C6YNAwB30t3OqvLZHeCwkR8I4Yq/s320/2.Food.heic" width="240" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

miss something extra (which might be because I have COVID). The Grizzly is
standard: spicy mystery ground meat in a thin coating. The sauces are good but
I prefer them fresh on my snacks rather than in prepared little cups.</span></span></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">

Mainz in a mostly immigrant neighborhood. The outside tables are full with
Bosnian men who probably spend their whole day there talking to each other. The

is a pretty famous Greek food truck on the outskirts of Stuttgart that provides
a wide range of dishes you’ll usually find at a bigger gyros restaurant: gyros,
souflaki, falafel, various salads, deserts, etc. </span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">I get a Pita Gyros (€5.80) and a Lahano (€2.90). The pita is huge and has enough fries in it for a side meal.
Unfortunately, everything is very salty and most of the (non-salty) tzatziki
and tomato are at the bottom. The Lahano is a cabage salad, which is big and
fresh.</span></span><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"></span></span></p><p class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify;"><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;"> </span></span></p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaASi-YDnYW_RdlV10iuW7CZqGBn0wJypV9DceAd6Gfk02KGBZOLNYzmelM4oTUP9dfd74Y4pHy1MJFbwg5lagH3s3WrS82GqDx0kuctstvUFMQpa_fKU6u3s4o-z8ff5M4W3U6iSYd0HL8jYAmoX1fbJSXASoI67OZMiGNPMf3OEXC1uasKtzix7p/s4032/2.Food.heic" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="4032" data-original-width="3024" height="320" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhaASi-YDnYW_RdlV10iuW7CZqGBn0wJypV9DceAd6Gfk02KGBZOLNYzmelM4oTUP9dfd74Y4pHy1MJFbwg5lagH3s3WrS82GqDx0kuctstvUFMQpa_fKU6u3s4o-z8ff5M4W3U6iSYd0HL8jYAmoX1fbJSXASoI67OZMiGNPMf3OEXC1uasKtzix7p/s320/2.Food.heic" width="240" /></a></span></div><span style="font-size: large;"><br /></span><p></p><span style="font-size: large;"><span style="font-family: georgia;">
