As I have mentioned in previous posts, one of my most frequent hobbies is going out to eat. It is not necessary to go to fancy restaurants; just going out and trying something other than home-cooked food is more than enough. I feel that this somehow resets my palate and allows me to discover new flavors. In this country, fast food is dominated by hot dogs and hamburgers, although there are also many pizza places, Asian food restaurants, and others.
Last night we went to a place we found on Instagram called JR Burger. They have three locations, and we went to the one closest to us, which is in the Los Samanes neighborhood of Maracay, Venezuela. We were drawn to the Caesar salad, which looked pretty hearty and high in protein in the reel, as well as the burgers.
I ordered the Super Special burger, which comes with beef, chicken fillet, double ham, bacon, cheddar cheese, lettuce, tomato, and shoestring fries. It costs $6, which I thought was quite reasonable considering the amount of protein it contains. In other places, a burger like this would definitely be more expensive. The beef and chicken were well seasoned, and in fact, they seemed to have been grilled, which, combined with the strong flavor of the bacon and cheese, made this an impressive burger. I definitely enjoyed it very much.
On the other hand, my wife ordered the JR Caesar salad, which comes with lettuce, bread croutons, crispy chicken pieces, bacon, ham and cheese rolls, and the traditional Parmesan cheese dressing. This salad costs $7, which we also thought was an excellent price. The ingredients in the salad were of very good quality, however, I think they could improve the dressing as it didn't have a very distinctive flavor, and well, it usually has an intense flavor. The amount of salad is more than enough for two people, so I had to help my wife as she couldn't eat something so big.
Our expectations for this place were completely fulfilled. What we saw on Instagram was not misleading, as is often the case, since the prices, quality, and quantity are very reasonable. The outdoor setting made the experience much more enjoyable, with a cool atmosphere and soft background music. We will definitely return to this place in the near future. It's hard to find places with so many advantages; we've been to many places that have disappointed us. So this was my experience at JR Burger, a place that is well worth visiting.
