5 guys is the be all end all of gourmet fast food in this area. We dont have carls, in n out or any of those other places. Theyre all the same though. Unfrozen burgers with super fresh toppings overpriced. Delicious. I usually keep it simple. Two patties, cheese, grilled onions, ketchup.
Thursday Im getting a $40 Kobe beef burger with Vermont cheddar. Fuck the recession. *not from 5 Guys lol [/quote]
I worked at a wine bar that had a kobe beef burger with some weird cheese on it. It was awesome. Not sure if they still have it 'cause there’s a different chef now, but go to Max’s Wine Dive if y’all are ever in Houston and try it.

There is a McDonalds in Hastings Nebraska (really small town) that serves that as a menu item. It is called the McDizzle.

That reminded me of Pulp Fiction and the whole “$5 Shake” bit…

Being a jersey boy, I like old school sub shops so much better. It’s like comparing NY pizza to dominos. A good sub shop will use better bread, better meat, and be a lot more generous with the meat. Subway barely puts any meat on their sandwiches. Yours was probably ok because you got 3 different kinds. Try getting just turkey and they’ll put like 2 slices on there.
Also… I hate the way they cut the bread not all the way through and then start piling the meat on the crease. Then cheese, then lettuce, then tomatoe. So then when you close the sandwich and try to eat it… you get one bite that is all tomatoe and lettuce and then another bite that is all meat. It’s fucking retarded. Maybe I’m a sub snob. And I’m from north jersey so I don’t say hoagie or grinder… EVER!
Subway fucking blows if you ask me. [/quote]
haha. Amen brother.
What the fuck is a grinder? People really call it that?

I got no problem with some chubby schlub doing their marketing; some of their choices are not bad.
I got a foot long hero with whole wheat bread, turkey, roast beef, ham, provolone cheese, multiple vegetables, and some mayonnaise (gasp).
I <3 Subway. [/quote]
Subway doesn’t have all wheat bread…its just white bread dyed brown…
lies! all lies!!
comment: this was true as of 2 years ago…doubt its changed

Oh yeah, a buddy of mine got accepted to nursing school a couple of months ago and his wife threw him a party. She got a couple of 6 foot party subs from subway. The bread was white and wheat, but it was weaved together like Pocahontas braids. It was awesome. If they offered that on their regular subs I’d go broke eating there.

You know you’re in the sticks when stuff on the menu that no one else in the world has the opportunity to order unless they are in your town. Garden City, Kansas used to have Chicken and Waffles with gravy at their KFC. Now KFC is more like a portapotty and I wouldn’t come near that place. Nothing but fat people and greasy tables. I’ve seen greasy spoons cleaner than this place.

Yeah, something with the longshoremen or something. Or, it might have to do with the tough outer crust on the bread. Eitherway, Po’boys where it at.
I used to love Subway, still better than fast food. Have to try their salads instead of sandwiches one day, haven’t got around to it (cut back on the grains about 4 months ago).

I’m glad you’ve found a restaurant that suits your new mediocre lifestyle. Congrats.

My fitness lifestyle has become rather ordinary, but because of that, my social life is becoming extraordinary if we compare it to how it was when my fitness life was stellar. [/quote]
As long as your getting tail on a regular basis,I aient even mad.
Anyways,for you guys that say anything other than “Whataburger is the great fast food joint” Do yourself a favor and come to Texas and go yourself a Whataburger Bacon and Cheese.[/quote]
Why Texas? There’s Whataburgers in FL as well. Unless the secret recipes were given to Texas Whataburgers only.
[/quote]
Does Florida serve teh special whatburger stuff? Peppercorn Whatachicken and A1 Thick-n-Hearty? I think there some burgers here that they dont sell in Florida. I dont think sticking the name “Texas” infront of a burger will sell alot over there.

“Grinder” is popular in New England. It’s like a sub of your choice that’s heated in the oven, so like a turkey sub w/ cheese, throw it in the pizza oven for a few and the roll gets toasted.
In Maine, they make mini-subs on 6" rolls (like a “Shortie” for all you classic WaWa lovers) but they call them “Italians” (pronounced: Eye-tal-yins). Dumbasses.
Those places are both great but Fiores in Hoboken is my favorite. Italian tuna on Friday, roast beef with gravy on Saturdays. I ate that shit every week when I lived there.
