Joe Muscara Posted July 28, 2010 Share Posted July 28, 2010 Regarding the earlier discussion about Fuddrucker's, they've been going through some major stuff, closed a lot of their stores, and went thru a bankruptcy. They've now been bought by Luby's. http://austin.bizjournals.com/austin/stories/2010/07/26/daily21.html I've never been to Luby's nor have I had much interest, but the Pappas family owns some *very* good restaurants IMNSHO. I didn't know they were involved with the Luby's chain, so I might try it now. Hopefully this will mean good things for Fuddrucker's. "I'm so crazy, I don't know this is impossible!

It's decent for a cafeteria place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StanC Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 I also am not hesitant about sending a steak back that is not executed to my specification. If you ordered it MR and it comes out R, politely ask the waiter if the kitchen could just hit it again for another minute or two. If you're nice about it, that sentiment will get back to the kitchen, assuredly. Yeah and maybe they won't even spit on it before sending it back out.

StanC Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Through this entire thread there's been 5 guys, Fuddruckers, Wendi's, Burger King etc. etc. etc. I was looking for my personal favorite which no one mentioned. Ruby Tuesdays. Now that's a burger!

kanker. Posted July 29, 2010 Share Posted July 29, 2010 Stepay: Yeah yeah. I don't think Eva Longoria is attractive. I know most guys would disagree. Yeah, come on guys. Stepay's trying to retire early - if he's out there publicly talking about digging Eva, that could make for a LONG retirement.... A ROMpler is just a polyphonic turntable.

If you're nice about it, that sentiment will get back to the kitchen, assuredly. Yeah and maybe they won't even spit on it before sending it back out. I worked back there in several steakhouses. The way the waiter indicated the customer was behaving had a lot to do with what sort of unspeakables I would commit against their steak. Most grill cooks aren't evil by nature, only by provocation.

Ruby Tuesdays. Now that's a burger! Their little prime minis were ok, but for the most part I was never super-impressed with their food. Granted, I've never been to a RT outside of this area, so see my previous post regarding chain restaurants coming here to die a painful death.

NewImprov Posted July 30, 2010 Share Posted July 30, 2010 Man, this thread is making me hungry! Fortunately, here in the NW, we have Burgerville. They went to all local sourcing for their meat, and as much of the rest of their produce as possible all few years ago, and they do make a really consistently good burger. Also, their Walla Walla sweet onion rings are in season right now, and these things are killer. Literally. So good, so greasy.

MAJUSCULE Posted August 6, 2010 Share Posted August 6, 2010 I saw a guy with an In-N-Out t-shirt today. I kid you not. I was so impressed. For lunch, I lightly toasted a third of a baguette, spread some mayo and some NC Bone Suckin' Sauce and added a veggie burger with some nice melted Gruyère. Mm-mm! I work at a lemonade stand which goes around various festivals and events all summer. Last week was Capital Ex, the big fair/ride/carnival/trade show/piece of crap. However, when Mitch's Monster Burgers serves up their signature Monster Burger, it's an event in itself. For $40, one person can attempt to eat in one hour and receive a full refund. They easily cover their costs, because the Monster Burger consist of one pound of beef, half a pound of bacon, cheese, lettuce, tomato and red onion on a bun about the sive of four usual buns. Now that's a mouthful. Eric Website Gear page Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that's a mouthful. That would be an appetizer on "Man vs Food". 1.5lbs worth of burger sounds like a challenge that could be handled by many especially if the 1lb of beef is the precooked weight. With typical ground beef, that would yield around 12oz cooked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
