the oddities of sporadic visits of favorite things savored. one of the first places I visited upon moving to this fare city. The others are the Ritz, Lovejoys & Deville; two of which are both surprisingly still here; mostly because of the loyal niche market they serve and despite the demands that come with the high rent of their prime locations.
nevertheless: almost decade old wandering memories and appreciation of things progressed and slowly dynamic things that can still be appreciated.
which brings us to the Amarillo burger at Casino el Camino. still hand-formed and cooked to order (they do properly prepare medium rare). no longer the hand cut fries as the popularity and demand along with the small staff & kitchen make such volume inefficient & not quite affordable. the same staff: kind & talkative if properly related; surly and curt if pressed durning typical rush times or by drunkenly disorganized & demanding customers.
relax with a cold bottle and burger and peruse the excellent jukebox or take in whatever dark movie is showing on one of the two TVs above the bar.
