Hi Jim,
JW> Fatburger
RH> That's one we don't have in the States.
JW> It's actually an American company but they are located mostly in the
JW> western states. They moved into Canada but again, only in the
Just one I've not seen then, even with all the times we've been out
west.
JW> west. They've been in Alberta about 15 years and in Yellowknife for
JW> five. They have a retro 50s vibe, big thick meaty burgers (1/3 and
JW> 1/2 lb fresh, never frozen Alberta Angus beef patties), a number of
JW> variations on loaded fries (chili cheese, nacho, poutine and
JW> lumberjack (poutine plus maple bacon and fried onions) and good
JW> milkshakes made with real ice cream. Everything is cooked to order.
JW> They are more expensive than most of the other fast food places but
JW> worth it.
Looks a lot better than most all of the big name burger places we've
seen/tried.
EH> Cute name
JW> It's a reference to the large thick patties.
Also to the shape you'll be after indulging in a few of them.(G)
JW> Andy and Marian Wong, Byron II Steakhouse, Honolulu
RH> I think that's new since we came back from HI
JW> It was a fixture for many decades and closed some time ago. Some of
JW> their house recipes linger on thanks to the Internet.
OK, we never saw them but we didn't get around all of Honolulu, just the
important parts. (G)
