Kerbey Lane has Fries?!

I swear the last time I went to Kerbey Lane (not often), I had no choice but to suffer through their miserable “home fries” with my burger (said home fries are also bad with their breakfasts).  This time I noticed “fresh cut French Fries” as a side option on the menu.  Asked the waitress if they have always had them, and she said they were just added to the menu 4-5 months ago, but they’ve always been available as a kind of “secret menu item”.  News to me.

So, had a Kerbey Lane burger today.  It’s 1/3 lb, so not thin patty and not overwhelmingly grande.  Grilled (evidence of grill marks on patty).  Cheddar available.  Flavor of the burger was pretty good, with a definite grilled/charred taste (which I like).  Fries were good–not greasy, and plentiful.  Only downside to the burger is that it was quite dry.  I believe the menu indicated they use “lean beef”, so there’s an issue right there.  As we know, chuck makes the best burger, at 20% fat content.  Lean = dry.

Upshot: decent burger and fries, but burger too dry to lure me back.
