Eating the Enemy: Arizona State

by yellow fever on Nov 23, 2011 6:30 PM PST in California Golden Bears Football

One of the few times you might want to go visit Anaheim. From the OC Register:

My first encounter with the Sun Devil came more than a year ago when the 12-ounce burger took me by surprise during a food contest.

Back then, I liked it. But it wasn't love at first bite.

Today, I can't stop thinking about it.

...

After the first luscious, messy bite, I knew this was it. I suddenly recalled why we singled out this burger. The tempura-style toppings and crispy bacon give the burger a hint of savory heat with every bite. The only thing different about the burger: The Catch tweaked the original recipe slightly, using cheddar cheese instead of Swiss. Looking back at my judging notes, I recall suggesting cheddar over Swiss, so I was pleased.

...

I think about the Sun Devil often, and can't wait to indulge in it again and again.

Here's to vaguely sexual innuendos! Go Bears, and have a happy Thanksgiving!

That sounds delicious

The champion that day was The Sun Devil, having won our stomachs with its surprising mix of toppings: Swiss cheese, shredded iceberg lettuce, bacon strips and flash-fried bits of dill pickles, cherry peppers, jalapenos, onions and pepperoncini.

I’ll have to head up there soon.

The football team is having Thanksgiving dinner at the SAHPC

Before leaving on Thursday for their game at Arizona State on Friday night, the Bears will have Thanksgiving dinner in the new Student Athlete High Performance Center that wraps around the west side of Memorial Stadium.

It will be the football team’s first function in the $150 million facility. The meal will be catered because, as coach Jeff Tedford said, "I don’t think the kitchen will be ready."

Crumpy also notes that the players favor the Vegas Bowl — which looks possible only if we win on Friday night.

Slater’s is next on my list. Fiatlux says it’s legit. I’ve been to The Counter in Santa Monica so I assume it’s the same.
