Five Guys Burgers and Fries
Forum rules
At the old Disney Hyperion Studio, the screening room where animators would show animated scenes to Walt for his approval was small, with no ventilation or AC. Not only was it hot, but the animators were nervously awaiting Walt's reaction to their work. Thus, the room became known as the Sweatbox. Even after the Studio moved to Burbank and elegant screening rooms were offered to the staff, the moniker remained.
Now SGT has a sweatbox of our own. This is the place to find and post all entertaining topics such as video links, jokes, games, and the like. A general rule of thumb is that if the thread is meant to be informative (interesting news stories for example), or a topic for discussion (like setting up a park meet) then it should go in the Break Room, but if the intent is to entertain the masses then it's home is The Sweatbox. I'm sure there will be grey areas at times, so if you have doubt as to where a new thread should go, just use your best judgement and the SGT Staff will be glad to move it later if you guessed wrong.

Nice website. Good looking food. The shakes look enticing. Nothing anywhere near me. :(

Re: Five Guys Burgers and Fries
In 'n' Out came to the Dallas area last year. I don't rave about them like some who grew up with them on the west coast, but it's pretty good stuff, especially for the price. I've also had consistently good, friendly service there.
Great -- now my stomach is rumbling thinking about my usual: a Double-Double, Animal Style, No Tomato, Extra Toast.

Re: Five Guys Burgers and Fries
I used to go to the original one (before it became a chain). It is in Alexandria, VA just off King Street (Route 7) West of I-385 and near Beauregard Street. Definitely was the best burger in the entire DC Metro area. Even won awards from Washingtonian Magazine for several years.

Re: Five Guys Burgers and Fries
Yeah, at the one we have nearby they have their awards proudly listed around the walls. One time I was in there I noticed that there weren't any from the last 3 years or so. I figured they went down hill and no longer get the awards because they're just kind of average.Cheshire Figment wrote:I used to go to the original one (before it became a chain).
