    I went to his Airport Restaurant in Heathrow Airport, once of the worst burgers I've ever had. 2 Burgers, 2 soft drinks and an order of buffalo wings was $90.

    The Portabello Mushroom burger is dope. We have a bunch of them near me now, and I really never go for some reason. Dunno why. I mean its good, but not really memorable.

    I think it was back when the exchange rate for pounds was like 1.90 dollars to a pound.

    Wait. I like steak and shake. The one we went to doesn't have a drive thru.

    We have Sonics here. You guys have them? That's the slowest drive thru I've ever been to. You can pull up to a kiosk and they will bring you stuff but it takes forever.

    Ok. This was last year. Anniversary dinner. The friend that took us to the Knights game got us reservations in 2 months


    Guess it normally took 4 months. Our waiter is one of our friend's hair customers. She cuts hair for extra dough, her husband is a VP or something at The Palms.

    Anyway. I didn't try the Beef Wellington but we had Lobster Risotto (Holy shit) and scallops and sticky toffee pudding and mac and cheese and some sort of sorbet that was like velvet.

    I thought there was no way it would be that good and it was all hype....It was better than the hype.

    We spent 145 and our waiter comped us the desserts and some bottled water from Norway or something. It was amazing.

    I almost tackled a waiter walking by with a 125 dollar ribeye tomahawk steak.

    They needed a sign. We got there early and I saw 30 people walk in and ask for a table....they didn't have any, it was always booked.

    Yeah, Sonics are all over the place here in Ga...but the food is just not good at all, mostly because it seems that they never change their cooking oil...their shakes are OK...and yeah, the drive thru is like watching paint dry, painfully slow.

    The breakfast burrito is a gut bomber, even more so than say, pool room chili dogs...(ambrosia going in, garbage coming out). It's a folded tortilla with eggs, cheese, and sausage but the last 2 bites at the bottom are full of an orange grease from the sausage I guess

    The very best burger/sandwich eateries here are Arby's and Hardee's...not bad but I'm so far out in the country that I'd have to drive 50 miles for anything better.

    These have all gone way down except Five Guys which has great fries and God awful hamburgers. If I have to go to one of those, even though it's gone down, I'd still go to Burgerville.

    I love In-N-Out hamburgers, but I don't think it's enough to travel out of my way to get.
