I don't think we got one here, but they should at least let you choose how you would like your meat done! I know there is some places, due to health concerns that only serve well done, but that makes me feel vary about how clean that joint is in the first place!

Personally I prefer those 2 great places around here (best burgers ever!)

Burgers on the Edge

http://www.burgersontheedge.com/

Kua Aina Burger

http://onokinegrindz.typepad.com/ono...na_sandwi.html

Just looking at the links makes me want one right now (and its only 10am)

Yeah,but can also try a steamed cheeseburger made mostly in new england and taste great and better then any fast food restaurant because the fat drips to a tray below leaving a fully cooked burger and a melted fluffy like cheese with your favorit toppings such as lettuce,tomato etc.

gross. I hate peanut oil fries. God, im getting that after taste in my mouth right now just thinking about it.

come on crackin! Those are boardwalk fries and those joints are delish.. IMHO...Actually never knew there was a difference in taste depending on oil usage as far as veg, peanut, canola etc..

Tried Red Robin for the first time a few months ago. I tried their Whiskey River BBQ Burger. OMG!

Great Burger!

Also have Culvers, In & Out, Fudruckers, and FatBurger here (have yet to try Fatburger).

There is a 5 Guys in Okaland, right where I go to school, Pitt. One of my class rooms is right across the street from the place and it is always packed. I have never eaten there though, maybe I should try.

I would never order a burger anything less than well done. I like my steak medium but I don't like to eat undercooked hamburgers. With steak nothing has touched the inside so bacteria isn't an issue. With hamburger it has to going through a grinder first.

Cheeburger Cheeburger is a good burger..... cooked to order.... medium and above only. Classic toppings... or all kinds of crazy toppings ranging from artichoke hearts to peanut butter. The onion rings are the shiz.... the onion never slides out of the crust. Tons of milkshake flavors made from scooped ice cream. Mmmmm Good!

Dude, nobody beats Burger King when it comes to taste. The meat at BK tastes like actual grilled meat. So I don't believe in your bunch of guys place.

If this bunch of dudes place is better than BK, then I got to try it so I accept your offer

You only go to Five Guys for the french fries. The burgers are somewhat overrated.

Without getting into too much details and please check historical sources if you don't believe me: The so called French fries are actually a Belgian invention. I call them myself French fries when I speak English cause that's what it is called but it is like chocolate, a Belgian thing.

My point being if Fries are the only appeal of that dude's place then It loses interest for me cause, well I live in the land of Fries

well done is a crime to meat

DeeChizzle · 01-05-2009, 05:31 AM

This thread made me go and try Fatburger for the first time today since I'll be leaving L.A. soon. Let me warn you that it's horrible. I spent exactly $20.18 for two meals and my wife didn't even order a full meal. She ordered what they call a Baby Fat meal which is essentially a burger the size of a slider.

The original post contained a comment about how they couldn't specify how they wanted their burger cooked and that it only came well done.
