For Father's Day, Lunchbox Laboratory was offering free burgers to dads. The stipulation was that you had to have a mustache, so I didn't shave for four days. Turns out they weren't really holding anyone to it.
Jennifer and I went for lunch and it was surprisingly not too crowded. (We did have to wait almost 20 minutes.) This was our first time at the new location, and probably our first time at Lunchbox since September 2009. The new environment is a bit more sterile than the old environment although many of the decorations have remained. The restaurant is much bigger and able to accommodate more people than previously as well.
We sat down and got menus. They had the typical list of menu burgers and then the build your own burgers. I felt like there were less options for the build your own, but it has been a while, so perhaps my memory embellished the list a bit. Jennifer got the black bean burger or vegetarian patty which she claimed to be the best she ever had. I went with a lamb burger as I didn't want to get something I could easily make at home. We both got shakes as well, and I seem to recall there were more shake options in the past as well. I got Mac and Cheese as my side as it was heavy on the chilies, but I was not super impressed with it.
The burger was delicious as usual, but even with my free burger, we spent $30 on our lunch. I'd be hard pressed to head back to Lunchbox unless it was a special occasion. And I think my first father's day would count.
