Burger with the lot

For lunch we drove back to the town of Jabiru, and instead of eating at the hotel, we ate at the Jabiru Cafe. It was run by this incredibly hyper Asian man who was taking orders, dishing out food, taking money, and making change all at the same time. There wasn't exactly a line, just a mob of people trying to get his attention. You needed to be ready to shout out your order or he would move on to the next person. Here I am eating some kind of hot open face sandwich with tomatoes, asparagus, and "tasty cheese". At the time, I thought the use of "tasty" in front of cheese, was meant to make the menu item sound more appetizing, but a later visit to a grocery store (where we found large bags of shredded Tasty Cheese for sale) confirmed that "tasty" actually means "sharp", as in Cheddar.




Darrin is having a "burger with the lot", which means in addition to the usual patty, cheese, lettuce, onion, pickles, tomato, and sauces, there is a thick slice of beet, some bacon, and ... a fried egg. Take that, arteries!
