If you consider yourself a cheese lover, you'll definitely want to try Friendly's new Cheese Skirt Burger.
Friendly's is the third oldest restaurant chain in the United States, but recently the brand has made efforts to attract a new, younger customer base. Part of this effort includes launching a revamped menu with 12 new menu items. The new menu is punctuated by contemporary and creative food creations such as the Grilled Chicken Mozza SuperMelt, the Doritos Cool Ranch ChoppedCheese Burger, and the $100,000 Cobb Salad. However, one of the most innovative new dishes is the Cheese Skirt Burger. This dish consists of a burger encircled by a cripsy cheese 'skirt.' As the brand suggests, "Enjoy the cheese skirt first, fold it inside the burger, or switch off taking a bite after a glorious bite of burger and crispy Monterey Jack and Cheddar cheese."
