Fatburger (Various locations)
Immortalized in Ice Cubes, “It was a Good Day,” Fatburger has long been a curiosity of mine. Many people I know will rave about how this is the best fast food burger they’ve had. Personally, I think it’s okay.
I think part of the reason why I really didn’t care for the food is that my experience at Fatburger was a bit on the lame side.
Obviously, I ordered a Gardenburger, but I got funny stares from the cashier when I said “no bacon” when she asked me if I wanted pork in my veggie burger. I’m pretty picky about french fries, so I opted for onion rings, which were pretty mediocre.
I don’t know if it’s because I went there during the lunch hour rush, but all-in-all, Fatburger was decent. It made me feel pretty bloated, a la Red Robin, but I don’t think it was worth my $9. In fact, I would venture to say that as far as large scale chains go, I’d much rather go to Burger King, who also offer a veggie burger option now.
