Had anyone been to Fatburger since it had opened 2 days ago?
Had anyone been to Fatburger since it had opened 2 days ago?
For some reason I have no interest in eating somewhere called Fatburger.
I went last Friday , I'm from LA so I know the place .
The burgers are good , bigger than the bum and fresh , however they are EXPENSIVE , for my meal it came out to $16.00 ! yikes ! I got a medium burger , with bacon, onion rings , and a medium drink .
For that price I'd rather go to Bagger Daves .
But I still wanted to show my LA love :-)
Lucky you, you got an entire post on Eater! http://detroit.eater.com/archives/20...-fatburger.php
I went today. It was alright, but nothing spectacular like my buddy at work seems to think it is. He's already been 3 times - and twice in one day. Customer service was great; they were super friendly and upbeat.
I am glad to see that strip finally filling up with businesses. Woodward is slowly coming back
YES! I have always wanted to be quoted in a blog called Detroit Eater! LMAO!Lucky you, you got an entire post on Eater! http://detroit.eater.com/archives/20...-fatburger.php
Irresponsible reporting. They should had waited a week or so to read the difference of opinions of the place; not just the first opinion that was blogged a few moments laterLucky you, you got an entire post on Eater! http://detroit.eater.com/archives/20...-fatburger.php
I am not sure I would consider a blogger known as Detroit Eater to be real journalism. Just some snarky dude who likes to eat.
ever since i saw hamburger america, all i want to try is a steamed cheeseburger.

They have a different texture than what we are used to. I like them. The place I had them put cheese on the burger and popped it back in the steamer to melt. Heavenlyever since i saw hamburger america, all i want to try is a steamed cheeseburger.

Where are the White Castles? Is their business plan to open a new store every three generations 35 miles from the closest one?
There seems to be a Starbucks. or McDonalds every other block, and I can't seem to figure why there are not more White Castles.
Yeah- I've done the frozen crap from Krogers, but it's not the same. Why are they so rare? Is that the plan? WTF!!!!!!!!
There is not a Starbucks on every block. The only thing that I don't like about these restaurants are the A LaCarte menus.

White Castle is family owned, and does not franchise. They are extremely conservative in deciding where to expand, and only expand using profits from existing locations. They do not take on debt.Where are the White Castles? Is their business plan to open a new store every three generations 35 miles from the closest one?

Never understood what people see in White Castles
I dunno. Bates is the greatest, but since it's not in Detroit, no one in this forum gives a care.
Eater is one of the most noteworthy food blogs in the country with outlets in most major cities. If you care about the food scene in the area, you should be happy they decided to set up camp here. Victoria the editor is a gem.
Yeah, I sorta detest the over price 'burger' scene... Makes me think of Fudruckers [[sp?) when they were downtown - high price burger and fries - now closed and gone. Maybe once in a while but not something I'd do often.

You're right. If expensive chains like Fatburger is what they write about, I don't care.
There are numerous places in Detroit to get a great burger and not pay $10. I will probably never go to fat burger or any of the other chains. Detroiter Bar, heck yes. I think there you can get a great burger, fries, and a beer for under $10.
