Everyone I knew went on about RocoMamas - Smashburger , Wings and Ribs. It's like they had found the Mecca of grub around the city , thats all fine and dandy except I WAS NOT INTERESTED IN VISITING! It got to the point when I would actually walk away from conversations because hey I actually just did not give a rats ass about this place. You see food to me , is something I value - like a good meal, it needs to be reviewed and recommended by people I actually trust and it's usually a place that people would not visit often because this " hype" story ruins everything.
Tonight I went on another spontaneous adventure with my partner and RocoMamas recently opened in his area, so we went to grab a bite. Now I trust his opinion because he knows me well enough , to respect by body enough to fill it with goodness and wholesome goodness at that. His also the type of guy who forces me out of my comfy corner and makes me try new things and I would like to think I do the same. We sat down in this bright , shiny new place with friendly staff whom were eager to show us what they got. Another point was that the joint was not full at all so it made me feel better that possibly the service and quality of food would be exceptional.

You see this right here ? Got me excited because it gave me a CHOICE! Hells yeah I want to create my own burger and just the aesthetic look of the menu : fun , easy, typography is great and it really captures the personality of RocoMamas. Now they were reeling me in , the promised great food with fun - I'm all up for that.
My waiter joined us later to take our orders and I ordered ( with great excitement) , a Smashburger which is a standard 150g Beef pattie with red onion , tomatoe and Rocomayo . I added bacon, rocket and pickles. Now does that not sound mouth-watering ?
We waited for around 45 minutes, which we did not mind because we were conversing and the like , as well we let them take their time with my burger because I wanted it to be piping hot and have that " fresh burger smell" ... Come on you know it !
Let's just say this burger was love personified. I made love to my burger , I was cheating on my partner right infront of him! This burger was AMAZING!!!!
Juicy, fresh, all the right combinations that make a great burger or so I thought ...
Man when I got home, I felt gasy and destroyed the guest bathroom at my partner's home. I felt terrible, sad and even , let down. Was this not the greatest burger Jozi had ever seen ?
I'm sad to say RocoMamas , I don't see us having a future relationship and this saddens me because I had so much faith in you.
