The cheese on Lil Empire burgers was not my favourite. It's just way too overpowering.

I had a bite of the no-cheese burger of the person I was with, and it was way better.

Available at all locations, every day in March.

I liked the concept, but the execution wasn’t great. The patty was really dry and not sell-seasoned.. The cheese sauce though made for a satisfying dip for the fries.

A little meh on Shake Shack.

I wish we’d get a Jack in the Box instead.

I could have sworn there was a Jack in the Box on 32nd Ave NE, I dunno, 25-30+ years ago.

I finally tried Shake Shack in Vegas in August and it was sooo good.
Love the Sourdough Jack from JITB.

Very possible. My dad's office was just off 32nd when the area was a relative desert to what it is today. I'm thinking about where the Boston Pizza was (Bobs Pizza now?)

Avineda food mall is a treasure. I went there today and got a burger for me and pizza for my wife and mother in law. So many amazing places. The burger was great, but the fries were a little salty.

Culver's is my new go to when in the States. It's more in the eastern half and mid-west, but there are a few locations in Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah and especially Arizona. There is a location 50 minutes (assuming no border wait) from my house in Port Huron Michigan, right by the mall that we go to to get stuff that we can't easily get at home (like football gear for my kids, selection here is minimal and immediately picked over the second anyone gets anything).

There are so many options out west that I have never tried.

The burgers are fine, but do yourself a favour and take a pass on their fries, they can’t be redeemed no matter how you get them prepared.

I never understood getting excited to try fast food.

Go to Shermans and get an amazing smoked meat sandwich.

Because it is something that isn’t available in Canada, so there is some novelty to trying something new. Presuming they aren’t only allowed to have one meal in Palm Springs or eat at a single restaurant, they can try sorts of other places at other times.

Lil' Empire has teased on their social media that their bacon mushroom swiss is coming back. I get that mushroom swiss isn't everyone's bag, but I'm a fan and this one is excellent.
