Food Porn & Review: The Fatburger 1

In my most humble opinion, a nearly perfect hamburger.
To be within the graces of its odor is enough to make a grown man howl. Holding in one's hands, the warmth of the seared steaming beef patty emboldens his hunger. Clenching jaws around its soft buns, crunching and chewing deliciously garnished flesh into ecstasy.
Behold!
[a travisty to be sure: there is no cheese on this particular burger] edit: here's the fat cheese

Is that an egg?

I will forgive you, for you know not the wonders of a spectacularly fried egg atop a quality hamburger! If I may however impart some solid advice, if you find yourself in such an establishment, do give it a try.

If you go into it with the mentality that it is supposed to be in competition with an In-n-Out, Sonics, Whitecastle, Wendys, McDonalds, what have you... then yes you may be quite disheartened by its above average cost and wait time. I'll even grant, there are days when the cooks are stressed or the cosmos just aren't having it, and you may end up without the perfect burger. Such is life, my friend! But with the appropriate set and the stars aligned, it can be a wholly awesome experience I assure you.

I should say their price to quality ratio did not impress.

I got a Fat Burger right up the street.
Its really not good at all. Fudrucker's is far better. Hell, even Island's is.

Oh Senor, it is a crying shame the guilt you must feel in not being able to adequately appreciate such an exhibition of culinary mastery that is the Fat Burger. Fuddruckers and Islands, I'll take the later for their fries and their simmered/pulled pork tacos - whatever they're called - but dare I say that they just can't compare!
I suppose opinions are like assholes, everyone's got one, and yours definitely stinks.

Wonderful! The "Luther Burger" is also a sinful treat, being a bacon cheeseburger on a Krispy Kreme doughnut bun. The HamDog is another saturated delight sure to drop some jaws (for subsequent consumption thereof)...
What other fat burgers have all ya'll encountered 'round this here globe, if I might ask?

Red Robin has a burger like that, well with an egg.
I like Red Robin's hickory burger... it has some crunchy onion things... they have unlimited fries there too... but it's hard to even eat half of your first serving.
there's no place here that has legendary burgers just the usual Red Robin, Fudruckers, and plain fast food joints.
OH yeah... there is a small chain here called "Goldies". They have a 'special seasoning' (that I believe is mostly season salt and MSG LOL) but it's really good on burgers and chicken.

ha the Luther is a real burger? I just thought that the Boondocks made that up. Ive been to the FatBurger in the valley a few times, and eh. Maybe its just that particular one but I was never that impressed. I mean its a solid burger, but nothing special I find.

Can't deny the prowess of MSG in flavorism!
Red Robin certainly offers up a sporting array of tasty burgers.
Though the service has been shotty, and the fat (unlimited) fries I wouldn't write home about, it is most certainly a notable burger establishment worthy of mention.

I back up Geo. Fatburger is the shit and usually amazing. I think Magic Johnson owns all the fatburger franchises.
Did I hear that ISLANDS had better burgers? they are only good for their happy hour specials

In my defence, I did note my love for In-n-Out and the Original Tommy's in another thread, the one which inspired me to create this one in fact. My undying love for burgers is dynamic, never imprisoning myself to any specific brand for heavens!
"In-n-Out is a good burger, when you're in the mood for it. The Original Tommy's is no slouch neither, but again, when you're in the mood for it. I think that at the present moment, my favorite burger is from Fatburger, specifically a Fat Cheese with Egg. Wish I had a picture of one, but in keeping with the original post, I have this from one of my hundreds of trips to In-n-Out made in the Fall of 2005..."
No burger bashing here, this is a thread for lovers of the burger indiscriminate!
