Sean M.Sean Molin: I'll tell you what's up: Buttermilk chicken tenders, dip in beer cheese. Mac 'n Cheese is incredibad and I don't even like spicy. Bourbon burger, sub the horseradish havarti for sharp white cheddar.

Dan F.Dan Finney: Get two Burger Snacks, upgrade them to the fancy burgers for a sampler. I tried the Garlic 3-cheese (fan-frikkin-tastic) and the bourbon (tasted like rubbing alcohol). Recommend the union rings!
