Don't you love it when you happen on great places by mistake? As a group we wanted to go elsewhere but the place next door had a 45 minute wait. We thought Opah would be a good alternative. We were thinking Greek, but boy were we wrong. If it is so bad to be wrong, I don't want to be right.
"The Opah or "Moonfish" once was viewed as good luck when caught by old-time fishermen and often given away as a gesture of goodwill."
Kobe Beef Burger
½ lb. with sweet caramelized onions
$12
(add aged cheddar, Havarti, Gorgonzola or smoked bacon + $1)
As far as burgers go, it doesn't get much better than this. The Kobe beef really made the difference from an okay fast food burger, to a gourmet masterpiece. The meat was so juicy and had just enough pink. The condiment that I rarely use was actually a great staple in this meal. Ketchup. I hate the word, but this was not your ordinary ketchup. It was thick, almost whipped. It didn't make the burger, but it helped bring it all together. The shoelace french fries were killer. Salty enough with a hint of garlic, perfect.
