Showing my age, but White Castle had 15 cent burgers when I was a kid in Michigan.

Don't see many out west so I make my own from a copycat recipe.

Fremont Street in Vegas has one, but the only one I have seen out west.

My neighbor’s kid just got his drivers license. First night he can drive after dark we made him go get us White Castle at like 11:30pm because we were wasted. He came back yelling “Dad! My car reeks of onions now!!!”

My White Castle love goes back to growing up in NY. Used to go to the one on WHITE Plains Blvd. and CASTLE Hill Ave. in the Bronx that my mom convinced me was the original location (it wasn’t).

Krystal is the southern version of White Castle. I think they’re better than WC.

Amen! And it's trash not even worth recycling. The whole Slider concept is a butt-plug sandwich version of Olive Garden breadsticks and Outback bread loaves. And Crystal burgers are what sharting bowels crave when the drugstores are closed and they can't get Imodium.

Sliders, WC, Crystal: Shitfaced, stoned or sober, I'd rather eat grout compound.

I see them frozen for sale here at Grocery Outlet, but never had the urge to try them, not very cheap. But I imagine for transplants out west, they want them at any price.

I took my son to Blake’s over the weekend. Since he goes to school back East, I thought he’d enjoy a green Chile cheeseburger.

He loved it. I would rate if second best fast food burger in town.

Blake's was hands down the worst burger I've had in years and it's not even close. Pretty sure I already railed on it in this thread but it was barely edible. Dry stale bun, spongy fake tasting meat, no condiments, just beyond awful.

Our experience was totally opposite. Super juicy burg and the green Chile was sublime. It was great.

We went to the one on Craycroft and River.

Yuck

That’s why I don’t like In&Out. First time I tried it I bit into half a raw onion and that’s all I tasted the rest of the day. Apparently I didn’t know the secret handshake to get them to make my burger edible.

You should see the amount of raw onion that goes on a hotdog with just a small squirt of mustard. As much hot dog as onion on that bun.
