| A picture of my friend's burger |
In the heart of
downtown Aurora there is a place that has been dishing out American classics
with a twist, for over ten years now. Midtown Pub and Grill is a beacon for
Hamburger lovers across the area. Honestly one of the best burgers I have had
anywhere and I've been to a lot of places around the country to try burgers,
but no one comes close to the chary, juicy, meaty burgers that Head Chef Carlos
dishes out fresh every day! Now I'm a regular of Midtown so I know the ins and
outs of the place. Walking in you find a fairly large bar; tables that are
positioned near the windows; a back section of the bar where you find more
tables, gambling machines, and a large stage. There has been much renovation
done to the bar which gives it a more welcoming and inviting feel to it.

| Midtown Nachos |
Last Thursday I
decided to go to Midtown on a busy night, karaoke, which is always a fun night.
But I also went because they had a special on another one of their famous
dishes, Midtown Nachos. For $6 you get a heaping plate of chips topped with an
abundance of chicken, fresh tomatoes, lettuce, jalapeños, a mix between melted Chihuahua
cheese and a house-made cheese sauce, all topped off with drizzles of sour
cream. This plate can literally feed a table of four, with some left over. The plate was massive, and the presentation
was nicely done especially taking into consideration that Carlos was the only
chef and was taking in other orders at the same time. My first bite into of the
fresh chips cooked right in front of me, (I was sitting at the bar), was an explosion
of flavor bursting in my mouth! The juicy tender chicken mixed with the cheese
and jalapeños was absolutely lip-smacking! Of course as in my other blogs you
can’t have good food without a good pairing of beer. My choice to counter
balance, the salty, spicy, nachos was another special that Midtown had on top.
The Leinenkugel's Orange Shandy was my drink of choice, but since I do not like
sweet beers I decided to have them mix it with Blue Moon. The pairing was
perfect! Refreshing, crisp beer, with crunchy, salty, and spicy nachos! The
rest of the night went awesome and included myself and a couple of my friends
singing our lungs out on stage.
If you’re looking
for a place with great atmosphere, amazing food, and a fun place to hang with
your friends, then you have to come down to Midtown Pub and Grill. In the heart
of every city, there’s a place where people from all walks of life come to
congregate, and Midtown is that place! So pack up your bags and go out there in
the world. See what adventure lies ahead for you, and on the way your going to
have to eat so don't hesitate to sample everything the world has to offer. With
Food and Travel Around the World this is Samuel Núñez saying adios!
