Johnny's Burgers

There are two reasons why Wednesdays & Friday's (Chinese class days) are going to be amazing.

1. We get to see everyone from the program, speak with native English speakers, make plans for the weekends, and learn Chinese!

2. Johnny's Burgers. Words can't even describe the delicious almost American burger and fries we ate on Wednesday afternoon. Yes, there's McDonald's here- and granted it's good, but Jordan and I had been craving a "real" burger with lettuce, tomatoes, ketchup...the whole nine yards. As we arrived to class we kept seeing returners from the program with "real-looking" burgers and we knew immediately where we were eating dinner after class!! It's less than a half a block from class and the owner spoke remotely good English. They had single cheese burgers, double double cheese burgers (yes, that's what they're called) and even a triple triple cheese burger!!! The fries were ALMOST like The Varsity fries!!!! To top it all off they gave us a WHOLE bottle of ketchup!!!! We were in heaven!!!! China is pretty stingy when it comes to giving out any sauce/ketchup. Usually only 1-2 packets and they are very annoyed when we ask for more...but my meal just isn't the same without a LOT of ketchup! I've even gotten less picky about having to have Heinz...ANY ketchup makes my meal better!!! =)

Because of where we live, we have less options for Western type foods and Johnny's Burgers EXCEEDED our expectations!!! Our hands smelled of hamburgers the rest of the night! It was wonderful!!! We even did a double take to make sure we weren't at home...but it didn't take long to notice that we were the ones standing out! =)

So next time you grill out hamburgers, just think of Jordan and me and how we could devour it!!!

Until the next burger =),
