This one has been a long time coming!
I’ve known Kara, the owner of The Gnarly Heifer, for several years now. She used to manage another local bar/restaurant that I would eat at every week while my girls were in ballet. From the first time I met her, I knew she was an amazing, awesome person. She has a huge heart, has an incredible taste for good food, and knows how to put a smile on everyone’s face. When she was no longer managing that establishment, I didn’t even want to go there anymore. It just wasn’t the same. She brings so much to anywhere she is.
The Gnarly Heifer is in Whitehall, in the old Taqueria Diaz building, for those familiar with the area. They have the most amazing burgers, hand-cut fries, hot dogs, salads, and wraps. They even have house-made hummus, and some pretty amazing Moo Mac – loaded mac n cheese. I am a sucker for a good burger and fries, and this has quickly gone to my short list for favorite places to get them!
I usually go for their weekly special for a burger, but I did get the Olive This Burger this last time. I am not a green olive fan at all, but there is just something about an olive burger! I also got the hummus, Moo Mac, and Truffle Fries. I shared, and even then, it was WAY too much food for the two of us. Kara does not let anyone go hungry! These are GENEROUS portions.

*I’ve been holding out on posting until I could get an ussie with Kara and I, but she either has the day off (how dare she!), or when she is in, she had her white glasses and not her red ones LOL! So I will update this blog when I can finally sneak in and get one with her beautiful face!
