Hippie Parade (AKA: Lunch) (04/22/09)





How tired are you of hearing statements prefaced by "In these troubled times", or "in this economic climate"? I know I am. And yet there is no escaping the fact that most of us don't have as much cash in our pockets as we once did. And most of us STILL have no idea how to cook. What does this mean? Well, for one thing, eating out is a way of life. But does pinching pennies mean that we have to sacrifice taste, quality, and the overall experience? I have just discovered a restaurant that answers these questions and many more with a resounding...


NO!


The place of which I speak is Two Hippies Magic Mushroom Burgers. I don't think they are legally allowed to put hallucinogens in on or around the food they serve, so if you are into that sort of thing, you'll have to bring it yourself. But if you are among the legions who are upset about the fact that five bucks at Taco Bell barely gets you a couple of tacos, a bean burrito, and a small drink these days, think about this: Two Hippies combos are five bucks, and they give you any burger (or loaded hot dogs if that's your thing) on the menu, a mound of awesome shoestring fries and a Shasta (pick a flavor) to wash it down with.

And these burgers are some of the best I've tasted. Yep, even better than Father's Office...

But don't just take my word for it...

You cannot find a bad review of Two Hippies Magic Mushroom Burgers ...anywhere. I dare you to try.


The good news in these tough economic times (see how I slipped that in there???) is that there are now additional restaurants owned by my new hippie friends. The Two Hippies Beach house serves Tacos (and Shasta!) while the rumored Two Hippies Breakfast Shack is scheduled to open in early May (no word on whether or not Shasta will be served, but I hope they at least have Orange). So, depending on what location you visit, you will get vastly differing experiences.

How cool is that?
