3 The Counter Part Deux

We had a fab lunch today! We've just been recuperating after returning home from our family reunion yesterday evening. We decided to lunch at The Counter. I hesitantly tried their Maryland crab cake, and while it wasn't my favorite (I mean come on, I'm FROM Maryland) I can easily see how people like it. Ian had a blue cheese burger with tzakziki sauce and pepperonicis, and E had a grilled ham and cheese with applesauce and a side of Silly Bandz. We also shared a chocolate malt shake, but the best thing by a long mile was their Parmesan and garlic rosemary aioli fries. OMG. To die for!!

1 The Counter

For our 8 year anniversary, my husband took our daughter and I to a gourmet burger place called The Counter where I ordered and ate (well, half) the most amazing custom burger full of all-natural and organic products...soft ripened brie, grilled pineapple, red onion, roasted red peppers, lettuce, chipotle aioli on a bun. And fries. And onion straws. And some chocolate milkshake.  Oh, my.

My husband ordered his with feta, red onion, pepperonicis, lettuce and tzatziki sauce.

Yep. And every single bite I ate with pleasure and no regrets. At least not 'till tomorrow. :p

I'm looking foward to our real anniversary date this weekend - we are going to a cocktail reception at the symphony, and seeing a Verdi opera.
