Thanks to an onsite client engagement, I had In-N-Out for lunch today after a 2-year dry spell. Discuss.

You could see the sundial bridge too, which is actually worth the trip!

Never really thought it was all that. Glad you enjoyed it, V.

I know the only fast food I seriously long for are Zantigo Chillitos, so I can relate.

I need to get back out to the left coast for some training or something, I also suffer from In-N-Out withdrawl. The closest thing we have here is 5 guys burgers and fries. Red Robin is good as well for a sit down burger joint.

I dream of someday eating at an In N' Out, and a Carl's Jr. I've always loved Whitecastle, and only get that on trips down south, where I've had the pleasure to eat at a similar place called "Crystal's." Although I actually buy the boxed Whitecaslte burgers in the freezer section of the grocery store.

We do have decent fast food joints up here, and fairly good service, so it's not too bad. But it's mostly just the usual Burger King, Mc D's, Hardee's, Taco Bell, Arby's (loves me some Arby's), and Wendy's. Oh for an In N' Out.

Had Sonic last night, they make a pretty good burger too and I dig the car hop service.

Negative. While they are owned by the same company they are not the same place. They do share some similarities though.


While I like in n out I also think it is a bit overrated...but I do enjoy animal style.

That looks delicious! In fact, just looking at it gave me a heart attack! When I recover, I am going to do my best to reproduce that.

Ah, I guess I never looked at every single item on the menu, but I know when I went from one (I live on the East Coast) to the other (I have cousins on the West coast), that I saw a ton of the same sandwich names and noticed the logo etc. I stand corrected. What I'm more concerned with, is where my god damn Jack in the Box in Northern VA?

What never gets old is the repeat forum police force made up of one.

I really never thought that in-n-out was all that great. Sure it's better than typical fast food chains but you can get better burgers in the same amount of time at a lot of places. Most of the diners near me make a better burger. A place like cheeburger cheeburger which is close enough to my house that I can walk to one makes a better burger (although they don't make them medium-rare or rare). Stewarts makes a better burger. Fatburger is pretty much a clone of in-n-out. And each of these will get you your food in nearly the same if not the same amount of time.

I can't even consider White Castles as burgers. Sure they can be tasty if you're in the mood but it really is hell on a bun.

lol

I've never heard of In-N-Out and I must have missed the past threads that are so annyong to Aslanna....

....because I thought he meant he got a quickie on his lunchbreak for the first time in 2 years. :?

That burger looks as good as a quickie though.

Who said I was annoyed? I actually find it fascinating how people can engage in the same conversation over and over across multiple threads. Please do continue. Entertainment? Sure. Annoyance? Not really. I have freewill. I can choose to click on the thread or not.

You could also waste time finding a link to the old thread and posting it in the new one and complaining about it, but you wouldn't be that fucking retarded, or would you?

thats a yes.


Hahaha how do you eat a burger that huge?

Where's the complaint? Pointing out something isn't the same as complaining. Unless you're fucking retarded.

#1: Never eaten at an In and Out Burger. I have heard of them though.
#2: Never eaten at a Whitecastle. I have heard of them though.
#3: Eating at Carl's Jr. is on par with eating a dog turd out of the front yard.

Did you just call yourself retarded? OHHHHHHHHHHHHH SHIT HI-5s ALL AROUND

Sorry, I wasn't trying to be a dick I just hate how people love to point out that this conversation was had years ago. I don't do that when my friends and I end up talking about a topic we talked about a year and a half ago, because sometimes new interestering information surfaces!

It's not like this topic was on the first 3 pages of the forum or something anyhow.

You posting that this was discussed is waaaay more annoying than somebody bringing it up again for the third time in the life of this board.

Ok so you were the one annoyed and not me. I'm glad we got that straightened out.

Look, I've got certain information, certain things have
come to light, and uh, has it ever occurred to you, man, that given the
nature of all this new shit, that, uh, instead of running around blaming
me, that this whole thing might just be, not, you know, not just such a
simple, but uh--you know?

LEBOWSKI
What in God's holy name are you blathering about?

DUDE
I'll tell you what I'm blathering about! I got information--new shit
has come to light and--shit, man!

Just for Anders: I ate there again today as opposed to McDonald's, Taco Bell, or Carl Jr's. Cheeseburger combo animal style today.

I try and eat cheap lunch cheap when I'm on the road so I can have a really nice dinner. Per diem FTW!

Not eating there tomorrow as I have other plans!

Having participated in the long-ago In-N-Out threads, it was a conscious choice to create a new one.

I haven't read the old threads since they were the new threads, but I think I asked there and still don't remember: "What does 'Animal Style' mean?"

They recently opened a Red Robin here, and I was very disappointed. For being $6.50-10.00 "gourmet" burgers, I'd rather just stay home and grill a $0.25 patty. It would taste better and I wouldn't have to suffer the horrible fries. Between the ridiculously priced burgers, a sweet tea, and tip (service was fine at least), I spent $13 for what I could've gotten at a fucking Wendy's/McD/BK/insert-heart-murdering-fast-food-joint.

Hell, even compared to other sit-down restaurants, you can get a better burger at O'Charley's for $6, and that comes with superior fries and an endless supply of those bitchin' rolls!

I eat my burgers w/ cheese and not much else, so maybe that's what I'm missing. Do they have some "sekrit sauce" or something?

Animal Style is the sauce/cheese/grilled onions all in one messy clump on your burger.....I think its damn good

Try the Royal Robin or the Whisky River Burger, those are muy bueno. Or you could just have a crap franchise extension.

Believe it or not I'd really like it if they had a Waffle House up here. I really enjoyed their hashbrowns.

I wasn't too impressed with my first (and only) trip to the Waffle House near where I work. The hashbrowns were cold and the cheese was barely even melted. :(
