Kahuna Grill

The burgers are still ample and juicy, the sides can still be bought as half and half french fries/onion rings, and there are still piles of peppers and jalapenos to add on at the drinks station. Much the same to my first musings about the place.

But…there’s a sign for a new offering, called the Wipe Out, for their equivalent of chili cheese fries. Onion rings, chili, bacon, cheese and ranch dressing, for $4.95.

More like Whulp Out. The chili got a little gelatinous in a very short period of time, and the toppings were chucky enough that it was very hard to scoop it up.

Left: cheeseburger and half&half fries/onion rings. Right: the Wipe Out. More like Whulp Out.

If you’re coming here for a combo-type meal – burger, fries, drink – expect to pay about $10.50 for it. Seems like a lot, but for me, I don’t have to eat dinner if I fill up on their meal at lunch. Really filling.

Best customer sighting: two grey-haired grannies in their Sunday frocks. I turn to look at them as one clearly has a magnificent belch rolling up her chest. And she lets it go.
Bravo, nana!
