Due to Chad scheduling a lunch meeting on Friday (BLASPHEMY!), we re-scheduled for today. It was my turn to choose, so I went with the Edgefield Sports Bar and Grill(e). Anthony described it as "very European", but he may have been talking about something else. He also said it looked like a strip club.Edgefield may be one of the only "21 and up" places the Hambloggers venture to. Unless someone picks a strip club. Or the Hustler Cafe', which is also "very European". Due to TN laws, if you want to smoke in a restaurant, it must be 21 and up, and there were several people taking advantage on this fine day, including a bald guy in a suit who kind of, sort of favored a young Telly Savalas. He was having the chili.
Andy is out with the "sniffles" today, so we were joined by 2 guest judges, Dr. J, and the Huntsville Rocket. On to the food.
The cheeseburger came with TWO types of cheeses. Fancy! The bun: toasted perfectly and lightly buttered /The fries: crinkle cut and cripsy/ The burger: thick, but not too thick, cooked just how a burger at a seedy sports bar in East Nashville should be cooked. Bonus points for old school ketchup squeeze bottles, points subtracted for refills served at a languid pace. The waitress also thought that some people in our group may have been a little slow, but not in the same sense.
Final score: 4.36/5

ReplyDeleteWhere do they dance? Where's the creepy guy with the microphone turned up too loud saying "GIVE IT UP FOR DESIREE?" So, 21 and older for a burger? So we can all breathe what the man in the Carhartt jacket is smoking with a FILTER!!? Edgehell serves a tasty diner-style burger, complete with a grilled bun with butter, ruffles potato chips in a small dusty bag, and iceberg lettuce in a plastic bowl with pre-packaged honey mustard dressing on the side. "Pull tab, peel back lid, empty contents onto salad, meat, or fish." Huh? The burger gets a 4.12 out of a possible Chad. Oh, almost forgot- all the staff we spoke with were courteous and professional (they didn't say anything about our slow guest's off-color comments.) Anterny out- outside for some air.
