We had lunch at La Guardia while changing planes last month, I try to schedule leisurely time for a connection so I don't obsess about being late or missing a connection. We had a little over two hours.
It was an okay burger and fries, not enough cheese too much salad on the burger, the chocolate milkshake was delish. I have been known to grumble as I am pulling the lettuce, tomato, and other assorted vegetation off of a burger or a sandwich, if I wanted a salad, I would order a salad. And you would think cheese cost $100 a pound, with the one tiny little thin slice of processed cheese food that most places put on a burger. I know that is what McDonalds does, but McDs is not the standard for quality.
The thing that surprised me was the cost, make sure you are sitting down, $42 for a cheese burger, fries and a milkshake. I know costs are high, and inside security at an airport is a captive audience, but I still think that is a bit expensive and it was not a sex burger. Actually sex burger is Essex Burger, but when you come around the corner and first see that sign - the mind wanders.
I can't remember in dollars now but what we paid for a sandwich and a cup of coffee at Newark Airport but it was outrageous. Airport food in Australia is very expensive but Newark was a gouging on a monster scale.
ReplyDeleteIt was a bit surprising
DeleteI could understand the price had it been an actual sex burger. I haven’t been to LaGuardia since the '80s. I understand there's been quite a change.
ReplyDeleteAbout 2/3rds of the terminal has been replaced, it will be nice if they ever finish it.
DeleteI hadn’t read about it for a while. I can’t believe it’s still not finished. By the time it is, it will be time to start all over again.
DeleteThere is a chunk missing the Delta terminal,
Delete42 bucks? Ay chihuahua.
ReplyDeleteI agree, even by big city prices it was high.
Delete$42, good heavens. That is a crazy price for an airport burger.
