Five Guys, Still Some Waiting.
So we went out and ate today! (Hold your applause 'til the end.) Decided to go out and try Five Guys Burgers and Fries.
First off, go look at that menu. Look at that. That is primal. Elemental, even. You can get BURGER or HOT DOG. You can have that with cheese, bacon, or both. You can also have a bun with veggies in it, but like Flowchart Ken at a Street Fighter tournament, you are -allowed- but what is wrong with you and why did you come here?
This is a Temple of Meat. Non-carnivores go elsewhere.
That said, the meat was delicious. The fries, too, were delicious. There's not a lot else to say, they have focused their proficiency points on such a narrow-focus band that they can CUT with it.
Also they believe in excess. Their eating room was massive (and needed it), and when I ordered "Regular-size" cajun fries, I got a paper soft-drink cup in size large full of fries... and another cup and a half in the paper bag. If I had ordered a large, I would have died eating them. It would have been worth it.
I had a bacon cheese dog with grilled mushrooms and mustard. The woof had a plain burger and a plain dog. We both eyed them skeptically, then tried a little... and stayed silent through the entire meal.
Stayed silent.
Us. Too busy cramming our heads with MEAT to talk.
There, there's your glowing review. See if there's one near you. It beats the everloving crap out of any other given "fast food" joint.

Anyways, when you ask for everything on your hamburger, which as I recall is how you roll, do they actually put everything on your hamburger? Because some of those toppings seem mutually exclusive, but I could imagine you having them both anyways, because that's how you roll.
*gently pushes you on an incline to see how you roll*

No. They have a line on the menu at the store: "If you ask for 'everything/all the way', only the toppings in black will be added by default.'" So you have to ask for REALLY everything if you do want everything, but... I don't. As you say, some of those seem mutually exclusive.
Also, are you saying I should withhold medicine for French babies? That's monstrous. I would not withhold medicine from babies. I would give the babies a hamburger.

I'd like to eat at your burger joint.

It is indeed awesome, every out of state guest of mine has partaken of the wonders that is Five Guys. And every one of them has come away happy.
Five Guys is indeed awesome. You forgot to mention the fact that the regular burger is actually a double: 2 patties! The little burger only has one. And yes, they do love to load you up on those incredible fries. Do not get a large unless you are sharing it with three or more people! You've been warned.
Yay, I'm glad it meets with sqrlian approval. :D

Well, maybe not. But yes, I was Enthused to find that it was as delicious as the walls kept telling us it was. And we'll be going back, as soon as I am less packed with foods from eating there once.
(Actually, the woof had the burger. I didn't realize it -was- a double. Gonna have to try that on Trip 2: This Time It's Deliciouser.)
