Well the beginning of September is here and we just passed through one of the hottest heat waves I can remember. It only lasted a few days, but it was so hot and happened so quickly. The temperature here reached nearly 115 degrees on two consecutive days. On hot days, I just simply don't feel like eating at all and so I have been in a non hungry mood for days, eating very little. So today at work, someone decided we are all gonna order some food from 5 Guys Burgers & Fries. Have you seen these burgers? They are WAY too big. Sure they taste good, but they are huge. They taste kinda like homemade burgers my mom used to make, but they are a whole lot messier. I guess thats the main thing that turns me off when it comes to eating there. I don't really like food to be this messy, especially when I am at work. Oh well, call that a +1 for In & Out for me, because I would prefer to eat a messy Animal Style Double Double anytime compared to these really good but messy, $5-bun-soaked-in-ketchup-mustard-and-mayo-house-burgers.
The fries are also good, but for my picky taste, they were a little too greasy and limpy. However, they are nice and thick fries, even with some of the potato skin left on. Don't get me wrong, just because I am being picky about this, 5 Guys is still a really good spot to go for a burger and fries. If you have never eaten one of these hamburgers, you really should some time. I think you will enjoy it. Just don't eat there often.
yea i agree. its like a once a year spot for me. the local one by my house lets you eat free peanuts and throw the shells on the floor! trippy...
