Schnipper's

One random day, I met up with TC and Cheeeeeeeese for lunch. We decided on Schnipper's for their, fast and affordable meals.

Cheeeeeeeese decided on some chicken fingers and fries ($7). He told me that he thoroughly enjoyed them. They had a nice crispy exterior matched with juicy meat inside. The fries were the normal shoe string kind. Well fried and salted.

TC had the cheesy joe sandwich ($8) which is a sloppy joe with cheese. Look at that messy thing! So messy yet so good. I think he liked it. It certainly filled him up and he's a big eater.
He also washed it all down with a chocolate malted shake ($6.50). His comment, "It wasn't chocolaty enough". Hahah! Malted never is. Stick with regular chocolate next time.
I had their Schnipper's classic burger ($9) ordered medium. I appreciated the soft white bun. It held up for the juices of the meat.
And that's what the inside looks like. Pink? Yes, indeed. I enjoyed this burger. It was fatty and well seasoned. Plenty juicy and meaty enough for me. I like the balance of everything. I would definitely order this again.
And my side order of fries ($3) came addicting. I kept picking at it even though I was full. Ah, fries...how can I resist thee?
I also grabbed a packet of oatmeal raisin cookies for later. I never made it to dessert for lunch. It was a nice late afternoon snack though. Just in time for my sugar rush/energy/pick up.
I really enjoyed Schnipper's. I liked the service, the layout of the place, and mostly the food. I would definitely come back and order their burger again. However, I'm eager to try some of their other items.

    Actually, I ordered a regular chocolate shake. It just didn't have enough kick to it. Boo. Chocolate addict that I am likes it richer in taste. ;P

  5. @TC: Oops, my mistake. Fixed. The pic looks as if they didn't mix the chocolate in the shake enough.

    @TT: I'm surprised that you haven't tried it yet. Though, it is on the West side.

    @FF: It's a good alternative when Shake Shack is swamped! Who said bad things?

    @Anon: Yes, it is the same place. Not sure who was the winner though.
