At Moe's Southwest Grill Restaurants, Rewards Program Members Receive a Tasty Gift on Their Birthday

                                                               

On a regular basis, I visit the Moe's Southwest Grill store at Bishop's Corner in West Hartford to purchase their outstanding tacos. Approximately a year and a half ago, I started buying food to-go from Moe's, and everything I've ordered has been very good.

After visiting Moe's a couple of times, I checked-out their website one night, and discovered that the chain offers a rewards program aptly named Moe Rewards. One of the factors that led me to sign up for the rewards program was the free burrito that members receive on their birthday every year.

The Moe Rewards program can be accessed via their website or you can use the Moe's app. When you sign up, you get a free cup of queso on your next visit, and every year on your birthday, you'll receive a free Moe's burrito or burrito bowl.

Last week, I celebrated a birthday, and a few days prior to that, I received an email from Moe's reminding me of the free burrito birthday present. The email said the free burrito was available for pickup, to-go, curbside and delivery.

My birthday was on a Sunday this year, and I often go to Big Y and/or Moe's on Sunday. It seemed like a good idea to go get a free burrito, so off I went. While I was sitting still in my little Miata in the Big Y parking lot next to Moe's, some guy backed his car into my left rear quarter-panel. The guy said the Miata is so low to the ground he couldn't see me.

I'm convinced a miracle happened that day at Bishop's Corner. The other car backed right into the Miata; I could feel and hear the impact. There was no real damage, though. A 1/16-inch scratch is the only damage that I can see.

Once I determined I could finally try to get the free burrito, I headed into Moe's. Per Moe's tradition, the staff members shouted-out "Welcome to Moe's" when I walked in. The three women working behind the counter were friendly, and they showed a great sense of teamwork.

It was good to hear that the free birthday burrito can be ordered the traditional way-in a tortilla, or in a bowl. Within about five minutes, my ground beef burrito bowl was being placed in a to-go bag, and I was thanking the staff members for a fun experience.

                                             

If you're not already a Moe Rewards member, it's worth signing up for, if you'd enjoy receiving a free burrito on your birthday. Your burrito can contain your choice of ground beef, sirloin steak, white meat chicken, Adobo chicken, pork or organic tofu. There are 15 fresh, free ingredients that can be added to your burrito/bowl, as well as several additional cost add-ons.

Another example of how you can benefit from being a Moe Rewards member is the free delivery fees promotion the restaurant chain is offering during the month of September 2022.

Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is the Type of Dessert You Have Fantasies About

                                         

One of the things I really like about living in Hartford's West End is having a Burger King restaurant situated on Farmington Avenue. My apartment is only two blocks away, and I can walk over there in five minutes.

On average, I order food to-go from that Burger King about twice a week, and quite often, their Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is one of the items I order.

Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is essentially a slice of high quality, chocolate cream pie. This dessert is so awesome I have to let other people know just how good it is.

Appearance

Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is a great dessert that has a very appetizing appearance. The pie has a dark, crunchy chocolate crust, and the first layer is a cream cheese/whipped cream. This is topped with a fluffy, chocolate creme filling, then more whipped cream on top of that.

To further accentuate a great thing, HERSHEY'S chocolate chips are sprinkled over the top.

On the burgerking.com website, the pie's chocolate filling is described as chocolate ice cream, and on the bk.com website, the filling is described as chocolate creme.

Size

The net weight of one Burger King Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is 79 grams, approximately 2.8 ounces.

Because of  the slice's fairly small size, I always intend to eat them slowly, but never do, because they taste so good, it's hard to stop eating one, once you've started.

Price

Three days ago, I bought two Hershey's Sundae Pies at the Farmington Avenue Burger King. Although I threw the receipt away, I'm pretty sure the price is $2.00 for each slice. (As of 9/2/22)

Nutritional Facts

Each slice of Burger King's Hershey's Sundae Pie contains 295 calories. The pie contains 17 grams total fat, 0.5 grams of cholesterol, 31 grams of carbohydrates, 1 gram of fiber, 21 grams of sugar and 2.9 grams of protein.

Flavor

Of all the different types of desserts I've tried at various fast food restaurants, Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is by far the best I've found yet. The pie is so good, I find myself thinking about eating it on a fairly regular basis.

The combination of chocolate creme and whipped cream creates an almost mousse-like effect, and it's not overly sweet. For chocolate cream pie-lovers, like myself, the flavor of this pie is a very good version of the traditional-style pie.

The cool, creamy flavor of this pie provides an excellent ending to meals of Whopper Juniors, chicken sandwiches, onion rings and French fries.   

Texture/ Consistency

In addition to its outstanding flavor, Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie offers several pleasing textures. The mild crunch of the dark chocolate crust complements the cool and soft cream cheese/whipped cream very well. 

Overall Rating

There aren't too many really good desserts on the menus at most fast food restaurants. All things considered, Burger King's Hershey's (R) Sundae Pie is top-rate dessert that's also reasonably priced. This product is very highly recommended.
