I don’t eat burgers that often because I just don’t care for it. And the thought of a burger packing on more than 1,450 calories is just scary! I often think if I’m going to kill myself, I should be eating something a lot more tasty than a burger. With that said, I still find myself having a burger once in awhile.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

I didn’t want any from the usual fast food chain restaurants. You know, Micky D, The Burger K, and the C Jr.\u00a0 We hadn’t been back to Island for some times.\u00a0 Allen said he thought it was good, so I decided to play a good wife and went along.\u00a0 I’ve only been to Islands twice. I liked it the first time. The 2nd time I liked it less. This time, the 3rd, I can’t even say I liked it anymore. It was just meh.<\/p>\n

After looking though the menu for 15 minutes, I finally decided on Kilauea (Jalape\u00f1o & black pepper-crusted burger w\/pepper jack cheese, Island Reds\u2122, chipotle aioli, lettuce & tomato.)\u00a0 It would have been fine and actually tasted OK if it were burnt black!\u00a0 What the heck?\u00a0 I asked for medium well not burnt!\u00a0 I ate 1\/2 of it and just couldn’t eat anymore!\u00a0 I kept remembering I read somewhere that burnt food cause cancer!\u00a0 Maybe the side salad would provide some anti-oxidant to counter act.<\/p>\n

\"\"Allen ordered the Pipeline (Chili, american cheese, lettuce, tomato, onion, pickles & mustard.).\u00a0 I think it looked sloppy as hell.\u00a0 And if you know me, if the food doesn’t look good, it doesn’t taste good for me.\u00a0 I didn’t want to even try it.\u00a0 Unfortunately, even for a burger lover like Allen, he thought it fell short.\u00a0 He took a bite of mine and said it was better.\u00a0 The Chili especially was disappointing. It had no substance nor flavor, just some watered down sauce.<\/p>\n

It came with measly 4 pieces of onion rings that were so over-breaded.\u00a0 They tasted like they were a day old, dry and hard!<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

(Left – Kilauea. Right – Pipeline)<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The saying goes ‘Third time is a charm’.\u00a0 But for Islands, third time, you’re out!<\/p>\n
