The Last Supper

With the rapture bearing down upon us yesterday, we opted for a "last supper" at Plan B in West Hartford. This was the second time we have eaten there in two weeks and I so wish it wasn't 40 minutes down the road! Best yet, it was voted one of Connecticut's best burgers by the Hartford Courant.



Name of Restaurant: Plan B
Location: West Hartford (they are also in Glastonbury and Simsbury)
Day / Date / Time: Saturday afternoon
Type of food: Burgers, beer, beef, and bourbon
Occasion / Event: The end of the world...or any other time you want the perfect burger!
Dined with: First with Brian, Kelly, and Amy, then with Brian and Jean
Ambiance / Entertainment: Fun, casual, comfy a little loud.
Wine / Cocktails: Huge selection of beer (can't go wrong with a Miller Lite bottle); nice wine selection
Appetizers: The jalapeno poppers were outstanding. Apps range from $7 - 10, with lobster sliders at $14.
Entrees: Burgers, burgers, burgers!! We've tried the Blue Cheese, Baha, Tavern Classic, and Bacon Cheese beef burgers; the Buffalo Chicken; and the Salmon Burger - and all were terrific. Burgers can be served on a bed of greens or with a whole wheat roll at no cost. Sides are fun and very tasty - tater tots were a huge hit! (Great pickles, too!) We're actually a pretty good test for a burger joint, since Brian likes his rare and I like mine cooked all the way through - and when a restaurant can serve up both our burgers done perfectly, they get extra points in my book.
Desserts: I'm sure they have them, but I'd rather finish my burger and fries than save room for dessert!
Average price range: Burgers range from about $10 - 14. 
House favorites / Signature dishes to reorder: Burgers! There are other things on the menu, but seriously - go with a burger.
