Agreed. I don't at all understand the hype for this chain.


I used to like Five Guys, but the last time I went there it was almost 16 bucks for a cheeseburger, fries, and a soda. Not worth it especially when they give you barely enough fries to fill the cup now as opposed to filling half of the bag with fries. No thanks.


I went to a Five Guys last week and got the half-flled bag of fries.

While I like their burgers, they are definitely over-priced for what they offer. Even with all the extra fries.

A kobe beef cheeseburger at the Hotel New Otani in Tokyo. I ordered it based on the picture in the lobby after arriving from US 23 hours of travel. When I paid the expense it was in yen. My report converted it to dollars. $75!

I love that hotel, and the garden.

A cheeseburger from Whistlers drive up in Carthage Mo. it was about 21 years ago but I'd imagine they're still great.

My kids believe mine on the grill are great.

The 11th Street Cafe in the Houston Heights used to make a damn good patty melt back in the mid- 1980s.

And the 19th Hole at Patty Jewett Golf Course made a good one, too.

Guess it's just the ones around here. I could split fries with four people before, now they barely give you any.

And I agree, it's still over-priced. The one around me is never busy.

Steak and Shake like 2 weeks ago. I kid you not. I normally go and get a mediocre burger at S&S. That's what I expect for the money, but a couple weeks ago I went after going to the range and holy crap I could not believe how good that burger was. I doubt I'll ever get another burger that good anywhere, much less Steak and Shake.

Otherwise, there's a steakburger place around here called Freddy's which has the most consistently delicious burgers.

Best burger was from a hole in the wall place called, not joking, Happy Burger. Oh about 30 years ago.

My favorite current burger is from a place in the area, and goes by the name Porkinator.

My wife refuses to eat a hamburger outside of our house after eating my home made burgers.

But after my own, I'd say the Bison burger from Big Horn Travel Center in Buffalo Wyoming is probably the best I've ever had.

We came across this place called "The Original Super Burger" in Willis TX.

If not the best, it is in the top 5 that I can remember.

Yum.

Ditto. Lion's Tap is full of awesome!

They use never frozen, fresh, almost still mooing, cow, mixed with salt into the hamburger meat, cooking the bun on the stove with the hamburger, and an explosion of tastiness results. Plus they are only 25 minutes away.

Fuddruckers for me.

When golfing, it's the burger stand at Chabot Golf Course when they have an actual grill.

fast food: it's Carl's Juniors.

My wife however, likes in and out burger.



"It did not really matter what we expected from life, but rather what life expected from us. We needed to stop asking about the meaning of life, and instead to think of ourselves as those who were being questioned by life – daily and hourly. Our answer must consist not in talk and meditation, but in right action and in right conduct. Life ultimately means taking the responsibility to find the right answer to its problems and to fulfill the tasks which it constantly sets for each individual." Viktor Frankl, Man's Search for Meaning, 1946.

Little greasy spoon about 5 minutes from my house called Opals. They had the best cheeseburgers, fries and shakes. We'd go there a few times a month growing up. Miss that place.
