Agreed, homemade fries ROCK!

Mayo, I'm not too keen on real mayo. Not sure why. Heresy, I know, but I like Miracle Whip...


In any event I don't have mayo or substitutes with fries. Fresh fries, generally I'll have with fried eggs.

Eh, actually, not Miracle Whip. A particular store brand here, which is quite a bit better than Miracle Whip, but not all icky like true mayo (can't stand it).

I eat mayo with my chips.

(Bare in mind that over here, fries are chips, and chips are crisps)

I must say, Five Guys makes some pretty damn good fries. (And even a regular order is HUGE.) And you can get them with cajun seasoning on them, too.

(Not to mention, they make damn good burgers, too. Unless you've got a huge appetite, though, get the LITTLE burger, that's STILL two patties.)

We just got a Five Guys here.  I haven't had a chance to check them out yet, though. Do they have onion rings?  I usually don't eat fries.

If you get the regular burger, you probably won't need fries (or onion rings.) :)

What I usually do is get a little burger, and a regular order of fries. I eat the fries that are in the cupful, and the burger, then I leave, and eat the rest of the fries on the way home.

Fries are okay, but I LOVE potato wedges with some seasoning and ketchup. I'm hungry now... never had anything to eat all day either. I should remember that I need to do a thing called "eating" :)

Do you have In and Out Burgers there??   If so, have you ever had an Animal 4x4??   Just awesome.   Bobby Flay's Burger Palace is great too.  

Too bad you don't like fries......definitely the highlight of Five Guys.

Aaaah.. the Dutch fast food. Usually involves drowning something that resembles a fried dead rat in mayo, ketchup and onions.

Do you eat that with your hands?   Or do you simply tilt the tray and slide them suckers down??

A tiny plastic knife/fork. You cut them in pieces with one side of the fork or they come pre-cut in those quality establishments.

No, we just got Carl's Jr., in fact.  I'm not a big fast food guy, but Carl's has some decent burgers and their onion rings are fantastic as far as fast food goes.  My favorite place around here is the Longhorn Cafe. They're local, though, so I have to find other places when I'm out of town.

Do you have Houston's out there??   They have an incredible Hickory burger.  Large patty cooked as you wish, with a thick slab of Canadian bacon topped off with fresh diced onions, a cup of cheddar cheese and some delish bbq sauce.  Just an awesome gut busting delight.   Oh.......and some of the BEST fries around.  

I'm assuming Houston's originated from Texas??  

Carl's Jr blows  :)

Back on topic for a bit......I guess no one is really interested in inputing their location??   pfink did a REALLY nice job creating the entire thing.  

In case anyone IS interested, here is the link on what to do:

No, we don't have Houston's here.  In San Antonio, we really don't have that many great restaurants.  We're a tourist town more than anything, so we have a lot of the standard chains even as far as Mexican food goes, surprisingly enough.  Austin and Houston have much better restaurants, but even they can't touch places like Chicago and NY.  Texas is a very "country" state, and if it isn't chicken fried steak, sausage, or ham sandwiches, they don't want it.  It sucks for immigrants like me (Austin is a pretty good refuge, though).

It's not that bad. It needs this link on that page.


After I posted that link I added a Google map to the search results. You can just zoom out on the results map to get the world view.

I never tried the search results. Grid location should protect your privacy. My street view is miles away.

Use this URL to search:

http://www.soybomb.com/geekhack/


Yeah, if anybody's concerned about actually being located by using this thing just use a set of lat/lon coordinates 20-30 miles away from you or something. We're only going for proximity here to facilitate possible meet-ups, not pin-point accuracy.
