The earliest still standing Bob’s in the country, and one that still has it’s 50’s look, and even has 50’s style drive up one night a week. The place is always packed, and there is usually a wait, but it is cheap. The burgers are OK, but […]

A decent fast food burger place set up as a 50’s diner (though started in the 80’s) and even including a nickel juke box at every table with a whole slew of 50’s music. Sure the burger is a bit dry, but it is tasty, and you get […]

Fatburger The Last Great Hamburger Stand, Hamburgers, CA

Fatburger

Well, unfortunately I won’t be having any Fatburgers again any time soon, or anything but salads and veggies, as I am now almost 50 pounds overweight, youch, but this was a pretty damn good way to kick start me into a diet. I have always enjoyed Fatburger, sure they aren’t juicy burgers, as they are […]

Kelly and I decided to get a nice meal in Burbank, which isn’t always an easy task, as Burbank seems to have more fast food than it does good food, but right near her house are 2 places that are both expensive and good, both Morton’s and right […]

At the Marriott Hotel near the Burbank Airport, this place is fairly expensive, and has OK food, though actually they have pretty incredible hamburgers. I used to love the Daily Grill, when we used to pick up Nicoise salad’s with rare Ahi Tuna, and it was fantastic. Unfortunately […]

I had been looking forward to this place, which bills itself as having the LEANEST BURGERS IN AMERICA for a while, since one of the producers I have been working with mentioned it to me. And I have to say I was very disappointed. I was not too […]

Right in the heart of Burbank with the old AMC 14 parking right next store (meaning depending on when you go it, parking can be a pain to park), this place is all about Hamburgers and they do them very well. And even better you get to […]
