    It's a burger chain. Their burgers and shakes are awesome (we think - like anything, it has its detractors)...their fries are not awesome (we go with onion rings).

    Hubby reckons he would choose Steak 'n Shake over In and Out...I'm not sure where I would come down - it would be mighty close.

    http://www.steaknshake.com/menu/the-original-steakburger/

    The burgers are quite thin - this upsets some people...but as far as I know they use fresh beef and sort of smush it flat on the grill rather than using pre-formed patties.

    I'm so hungry.

    Thanks for the link, I will have to try there, and In N out again to make my own cpomparison:D

    Can I ask what might be a really stupid question? What do you mean by an animal on your animal fries?

    This might be an interest to some people on here - I emailed the Cheesecake Factory about our latest visit, and added that they would be very welcome in the UK (sad, I know!) and got a reply saying they are "currently screening partners" for UK expansion.

    This has brightened up my weekend, and also because the email was apparently from the president of the Cheesecake Factory. I am such a dork :j

    That is so cute! Sounds like something I would do. I can't wait to try the Cheesecake Factory, it's my favourite dessert.

    Just wondering where everyone would say their favourite hotel is on the strip? I've been really thinking hard about where to stay and I check this page everyday and really value everyone's opinions and would just like to know what your choice would be, and why?
