“don’t wear the cheese, eat it, fool!”
the Nook's Jucy Lucy
I made the common mistake of the Jucy lucy virgin our first time out for the Jucy Lucy blog: PATIENCE!!! The result of my greediness? A lava-hot cheese explosion from my burger on the basket, the table, the seat, the floor, my lap. Nothing shocks you into the reality of an amazing Jucy Lucy experience than the sear of cheese to the inner thigh! Once the smell of burning flesh had subsided, we were able to sit back and enjoy a super-tasty entry into the Twin Cities Jucy Lucy canon. The good news? Despite my hot cheese faux pas, the Nook’s tasty Jucy Lucy had plenty of cheese goo to spare! We experienced a 40 min wait on a Thursday night, but the crowd of locals was served well by the friendly and accessible staff. Ricky had the deep instinct that if outed, a vegetarian may experience several forms of slapstick violence. Added bonuses to the Nook experience: excellent onion rings and proximity to the Ran-Ham bowling alley. Now, that’s old skool!
- Ricky Ricardo sez: “…any place with a diners, dives or drive-ins reference in the décor loses a star automatically”
- Ethel sez: “fine service, excellent rings”
- Lucy sez: “is it considered uncool to eat the cheese off your pants from the volcanic cheese eruption?”
