Sounds yummy.

markie_farkie: There's a Culver's a couple miles from the house. I've never had a compelling reason to stop and try it until now.
Sounds yummy.
First time my mom had cancer (3 time survivor), the only foods she could eat and not toss up were the custard from Culvers, macadamia nut cookies from Quizno's and the loaded grilled cheese from 5 guys

It's like a thinner, greasier Five Guys with more reasonable prices. Definitely a cut above the major chains, but just barely. Like "Whataburger...Plus"

No such thing.

I like in n out too, but I think one of the reasons I want it so much is because I can't have it.

You simply must. Amazing stuff.

NewportBarGuy: You know... there's a Wendy's in every town.
Wendy's has twice failed in my town, but we have 3 Culver's

Ragin' Asian: Jolibee's and taco trucks should be in more people's lives.
I can't survive without my taco truck. New Orleans is the last city you'd associate with tacos, but during Katrina a lot of Latin folks settled here due to the easily available work. I have the luxury of living near one. It's like a 5 minute stroll, and a similar price to Taco Bell. Except these are serious tacos, and the Ecuadorians who run the truck are super friendly and quick.
As mentioned in other threads, I'm COVID-broke, but I gladly hand these folks some bucks for the best tacos I've had in this town. If I spent it at Taco Bell the money would disappear from my community.

Team Culvers all the way.

In n out is the burger Wendy's wants to be
Portillo's is Burger King done by grown ups (and blows In n out away).
Culver's is _____. I was woefully unimpressed by smashburger which sounds like what TFA compares it to. The Culver's burger is quite nice, and the rest of their menu is awesome.
And one little old school Dairy Queen in Livingston, MT is the only one to be put in the same league as the Portillo's burger.
/Culver's must be $pending a bundle on this recent push

Ragin' Asian: Jolibee's and taco trucks should be in more people's lives.
This. There's a plethora of taco trucks in my neighborhood, but Jolliebees takes some effort to get to. Still worth it for the Chicken Joy.
Since Jolliebee's bought Coffee Bean, a lot of my local Coffee Bean locations have shut down (4 in my neighborhood alone!). At the very least they should convert them into Jolliebees goddamnit.
As for Culver's burgers: My college days consisted of me hanging out with friends at the In & Out in Culver City. Does that count?

No such thing.
The 5 guys grease is flavorful juiciness. The Culver's grease is just oily slick that seems superfluous.
Don't get me wrong, I like Culver's but the burgers seem unnecessarily greasy.
/team 5 guys all the way

Personally, I think In & Out is as much hype as anything else, but I'm about 10x more likely to stop there in a pinch than McD or some such other nasti. I think the two things they have going for them is quality control with their simple menu, and the fact that they seem to care more about their employees (who then in turn give a little bit of a schitt too).
I worked at a "custom" burger place a lifetime ago, and it has forever ruined "fast food" for me. Probably a good thing though, and I make some seriously awesome Uberburgers™.
