boon's log 4308.06: Friday Lunch at Helvetia Tavern

We've been here before, but it must have been like 5-6 years ago, when our friend, DA, introduced us to this rustic, country-side-like styled tavern. The interior setting gives you the sort of atmosphere you'd expect when you hear the word "tavern" - like something that came out from a country flick - swinging doors, huge heavy log tables and benches, bar top stools, open grill kitchen, flickering neon lights, etc. Haha... well done Hollywood!

Anyways, they serve a killer-type lunch/hamburger there. The one that they are famous for, called the "Jumbo Burger" and their fresh cut fries. Being back there again does bring back some memories. EYT was talking about how MM used to order Cheeseburger because he thought it was only cheese in it! Ah the good ol' days.

The drive there was rather scenic also.
