Mental Health Hotline numbers will be provided to anyone who thinks Whoppers or Big Macs are the best burgers.

Heehee. The burgers from Carl's Jr. aren't too bad. In n Out are my favorites.

In and Out in Camarillo is great.

The Mine Shaft, Madrid, NM. Just try their Blue-Cheeseburger. By the way, put the accent on the Mad.

I was in LA area last week and I happened to see a Tommy's Burger place, but not knowing what kind of place it was, we went to the Cheesecake Factory instead! Thanks to you, Next trip, we will do the Tommy Burger!

Other than that, my fave is IN &Out of course, what else could it be for a California girl? :-)

[ladyinred]

We used to have a Burger Chef here in California too, and I loved it. It closed up here years ago. I wonder if it still exists anywhere?

No White Castle Burgers where I live and I have heard of them all of my life. The other day I was in Smart and Final, ( a Costco, Sam's Club on a smaller scale) and they had them frozen so I bought a box. Not bad, but I am sure they are better fresh! At least I finally Had an infamous White Castle Burger, frozen though it was!

[ladyinred]

I like Johnny Rocket too! I love the atmosphere there as well! And the big ole Soda Glasses for my diet pepsi! LOL ! Some of it is the experience ya know!

[ladyinred]

Oh as usual, I am here all alone, starving for a Tommy's Burger and they are 3 hours away! :-)

Big mistake. You should have gone to Tommy's. Another GREAT L.A. eating place is Felipe's near Union Station. It features French Dipped sandwiches dipped into meat juice. Also I highly recommend the Pantry Cafe at 8th & Figuerora. It has absolutely the BEST hamsteaks and eggs. One time I ordered a Western omelette there at the counter. By accident the waiter gave me someone else's order which was a chili omelette. I ate about half of it when he came rushing back to me to let me know of the mistake. I gave him an Edmund Hillary type when he asked me why I ate the chili omelette when I didn't order it: "Because it was there."

I have been going to the Pantry since 1978.Great breakfasts. At dinner, you get a whole loaf of bread too!

[international american]

The last one closed in 1978, but they are thinking of reopening them soon!

Bob's Big Boy.

They're good in themselves, but you can customize. Here's mine:

Bun well
No relish
Heavy mayonnaise
Add avocado

When I worked there, people would add grilled pineapple rings, eggs, shrimp... great burgers.

Dang! Why'd we have to talk about this? Closest Bob's I know of is ~400 miles away!
