Angels On The Way at Gosling and Spring Stuebner

This gas station in our neighborhood recently renovated so I stopped in to check it out.  They advertised that their kitchen is open so I got lunch.  

The kitchen setup is the same as the previous iteration, perhaps with the same proprietor.  There were some challenges at the start.  The only food I saw prepared were some sad-looking taquitos and wings.  No menu visible.  But the proprietor listed off several things she could make or had ready, including breakfast and lunch tacos and hamburgers.  I went for the burger.

She made the burger up fresh, diner-style with the bun toasted on the grill.  I had everything on it.  It was quite a good burger--nicely seasoned and all the toppings (lettuce, tomato, cheese etc.) were fresh.  Also made the fries fresh, and they were nice and crisp on the outside.  Total was $8.45 which is not bad for what you get.

There were some challenges.  In addition to the lack of menu and sad first impression, the drink machine wasn't working properly--fortunately convenience stores have lots of options for drinks.

The store sells every virtue and vice commonly available at convenience stores, and some more unusual ones.  They even have two machines that form a Bitcoin exchange (Bitcoin to Dollars and back) if you want to do some cryptocurrency speculation.  If you have a few minutes to wait for the burger it's a good call, and I'm sure the other fresh food is good also.
