    Indeed, it is just another chain restaurant. Not all that different from McDonald?s or Burger King or whatever.

    But, if I?m grabbing a burger from a fast food joint and there is a McDonald?s, a Wendy?s, a Burger King, a Hardee?s/Carl?s Jr, and a Whataburger all side by side then I pick Whataburger.

    There isn?t necessarily anything special or magical about the place but the fact that for the last 20+ years I couldn?t just run down the street and pick some up kind of makes it like a special treat.

    If I pick a fastfood place, I usually go by time and amount of line I have to wait on. Then I go by quality of food.

    I think I've picked Arbys over Old Chicago more than 20 times while living in Thornton.

    Old Guy memory
    Best cheeseburger.
    My wife, teenage daughter, and I were vacationing in Hawaii.
    We took a snorkeling trip to Molokini that was extended because we were seeing so much wildlife and sea creatures.
    Got back to the dock later than anticipated and we were hungry.
    There was a Cheeseburger in Paradise restaurant with Jimmy Buffet smiling down, so we went in.
    We all agreed that they were truly cheeseburgers in paradise.
    Nothing like eating when you are hungry after a day outdoors.

    If you're ever in El Reno, OK or passing by, look up Sid's Diner. Hope ya like grilled onions! There's a bigass gun shop in OKC that has a restaurant inside that's supposed to have great burgers, but it's hard to catch it open - has different hours than the gun shop.

    I did like Blake's. Much better than what I've received at In-n-Out or Five Guys much less Burger King or McD's. I'd probably take In-n-Out over Five Guys because they grill the buns and I liked the quality of the lettuce and tomato but the burger itself just wasn't very satisfying. Very NOT impressed with Five Guys' cheeseburgers (their fries are very good). I've only had Whataburger years ago in San Antonio and IAH. It was also better than Five Guys, McD's, or Burger King. For burgers I can get from a drive-through, I tend to opt for Carl's Jr.

    Give Charlies spic n span in las vegas NM a try. Go in hungry, come out with an extra inch to the waistline. You could make a meal from their bakery dept.

    The website says Charlies bakery & cafe. Thanks to OUTRAGE from the anglo citizens of NM. Not the locals, but transplants to the S.F and Taos area.
