In-N-Out (the good chain) has been tinkering with the idea of expanding into southern Utah. They wouldn't be able to expand further north or east than that. Because their meat is never frozen, they have a limited range of distribution between their meat suplier and the restraunts.

All the Fudd's in our area do. Maybe it's a regional thing?

My personal favorite beverage at Fudd's is the chocolate milkshake. Made with actual hand packed ice cream, not that poured-out-of-a-spigot glop they serve at McDonalds or Dairy Queen.

I was raised on Fuddruckers's burgers, every Saturday afternoon for years when I was growing up in Council Bluffs, IA. I learned to program the family's Magnavox VCR at age 4, just so I wouldn't miss a thing. [Smile]

The guy is well within his rights (and if it had been me, I would have linked to the best porn I could find)

Look at the "Internet Bumper Stickers" site ... they have to beg people to copy the stickers they like and host them themselves, rather than linking directly to them, because it uses so much bandwidth if everybody who wants to use one just puts a picture-link to the original site.

Ebay sellers are always complaining "this other seller just linked directly to my picture instead of taking one of his own," and the best advise given is that they change the location of the original photo and, in the place of the linked (stolen) photo they puty a graphic that says "this seller stole my photo ... what will he do with your money?"

What makes a burger good?

Is it the cooking method, the quality of meat itself, the bun, the freshness of the toppings?

Fuddruckers still exist? There was one near me and they went out of buisness a long time ago.

John, the first two. I usually only get cheese, ketchup, mustard, and sometimes pickle on my burgers, most likely because I HATE tomatos and am not fond of lettuce, I I don't give tw shits if those things are fresh or not. The more they gussie up food, the less I tend to like it. A good bun can help.

I went to fuddruckers.. once. The burger was dry and the bun was stale. I went back up to complain and got a replacement. Once again, the same crap. Their food is horrible.

Now you want a good ol' fashioned burger... we have a place here in utah called Ab's. Great old time made by some greasy fat guys hand for that nice just blew my nose now its in your burger taste.

Ciao

Awwwww come on guys. The BEST burgers can be had by going to a place like Applebees, ordering a burger and a steak, then replacing the burger pattie with the steak. [Razz]

The best burgers I've had are at Champps. Although, the Billy Goat Tavern (portrayed in the infamous SNL skit with John Belushi) has some pretty good ones as well.

Haven't been in a Fuddrucker's in a long time. Don't remember the food so it must've been mediocre. There are none in Nevada.

Any place depends on its chef. I've had lousy steaks at one of the Ruth's Chris locations here, even though they have a good reputation for steak.

Best local burger here: The 4 Kegs Bar & Grill. It's within crawling distance of two CCSN campuses and my room.

If that's the same Champps (Americana) chain that is in Milwaukee and Houston and Irvine, CA...they SUCK the big one! Having been to those 3 locations, I can honestly say, what crap food! They are even worse than Hooters and Stewart Anderson.

Those and Applebees are for pussies that don't have a clue as to what a good burger is! If ya want a great sit-down burger, go to Out Back or your local greasy spoon.

I agree Joe, it's all about the meat, followed by the quality of the buns. [Wink]

As far as drive-in theaters are concerned would Applebees be a fair food quality level to aim for?

Anything above that level would be hard to do in volume, but on the other hand I think it is going to be the food, service, and atmosphere quality that is going to keep the doors open.
