Worth The Burger? | Deborah Goodwin

April 1, 2013 (ShapeShiftas.com) -- On Good Friday, my husband and I found ourselves with a rare occurrence -- both girls out, and no pickups needed until the next day. Date Night!

We got the older daughter off on her weekend away, dropped our younger at the school dance, verified the sleep-over arrangements, and then looked at each other with amazement and joy. What shall we do with our parental freedom?

We decided to finally check out a place he's been wanting to go to for a while -- The Worthy Burger, located to the east, over the hills and through the woods, a beautiful drive on this early Spring evening. (and still light out!) Half the land was still snow-covered, the rest muddy and brown and wet. Our destination was the perfect Vermont town of South Royalton (not to be confused with regular Royalton, about 5 miles away), home of the Vermont Law School, the girls' pediatricians, and the SORO Food Co-op. (That's about it.)

There is a town green with a bandstand and a currently melting ice-skating rink, where there's the best Farmers' Market around on Thursdays in the summer. There's a coffee shop/thrift store, a bank, a bar/restaurant with ferns and fixtures from the eighties, and another bar across the tracks that sometimes has live (country?) music I think.
