Mystery Meat Monday: Black Bear Diner

Alright, this place is cool looking, if you like the Sequoias. They really took the bear/camping thing to the extreme, There are wood bear sculptures everywhere and even though every wall is packed with decorations it isn't as bad as one would imagine. They have signs, and cast iron (my only protest, cause I only cook with cast iron) posted everywhere. So it is my hope that the food is just as clever.

It was busy so the coffee refills came fast, the coffee was okay, not to weak as some has gotten in these hard economic times. I went for the cobb salad, my hubby got the Bob's Big Bear Burger, hmmm that sounds odly familiar. I was really hungry and went for the large salad and when I got it, it was more like a vegetable stand on a platter. This thing was pretty big. The lettuce was cold and crisp, no weird pink or red to be found anywhere... good attention to detail. it was yummy, the bacon was tasty. All in all it was good, my only thing would be that all the ingredients were sectioned around the plate and I almost missed the blue cheese. Personally I like everything layered on top spread out everywhere, no what I mean.

My husbands burger on the other hand was so good, it was pretty big, seasoned perfectly, and super juicy even though it was cooked all the way through ( my husband doesn't like pink and red meat... mmm!) The fries were even yummy... I bet you are wondering how I know this, okay okay I was stealing bites from it you caught me. It was covered in "secret sauce" and grilled onions, lettuce, tomato, pickle.

This is definitely worth many visits.
