Meat (No Potato) Report

Ate today at the now open & relatively close FIVE GUYS® we've mentioned before. It's easier for us to type "Google is your friend if you're really (we know you aren't) interested" than to self-link.

Yes, it's a hamburger, the sole criterion for which is dry/crummy or not; the patty on our Little Cheeseburger was certainly moist, the additional elements, mayo, mustard, tomato, grilled onions, & lettuce (Not sure we ordered lettuce, as we don't ordinarily. Do we look like a fucking rabbit?*) seemed fresh, the bun had sesame seeds.

Service was quick, & w/ no crowd we should hope so. The wage-slave who took our order & the manager-looking (black polo shirt rather than the red ones the other employees were wearing) guy who called our no. were entirely too friendly/enthusiastic. How long that attitude will last is anybody's guess.

Judgement: Several hrs. & we haven't thrown up, although we've belched several times. (As recently as now.)

P.S.: Didn't try the well-spoken-of fries, but that gives us a reason to livesomething to look forward to.
*Don't be arsed.

Look at you, contributing to the economy and such as.

We can't blame M.B. for today's jerbs report.

So how does it compare to In-N-Out?

Econ Ed.:
Paid the rent too, so some fucking anesthesiologist can get richer.

As always, too effin' lazy to put real thought into this, & to be fair we don't remember having et at an In-N-Out Urge® (or Ratburger®) for two or three yrs. The concept/aesthetic is closer to In-N-Out than Ratburger, but we did go for the "little" version.

I come here for the baseball caps but I stay for the hamburger reviews.

They opened one of those joints two blocks from mikey HQ a few months ago, along with a 'Pizza My Heart'. I have yet to sample the fare at either, but as the weather is nicer the option of strolling across town (avoiding any possibility of a DUI) for a nice plate of cardiovascular blockage beckons...

As much as we despise this nation o' sheep, its "culture" has a grip on us.

And mikey can get a DUI in two blks. driving? Damn.

Next, you'll shock us with an admission that you like apple pies.

For what it's worth, the best burgers I've had in the last few years have come off my own grill.
I get to choose the meat,
I get to chose how it's cooked,
and I get to chose how intoxicated I am.

Win, win, win.
