Today I was back at the theres-no-place-where-a-man-can-go house. Got there late (had breakfast at noon via 24/7 diner, by the house around 1pm), did some light work because the two floor teams (carpet and hardwood) were there and we couldn't do much until they were done (hardwood isn't done, carpet is).

Dinner/Lunch was around 7pm, where we went to Fuddruckers of Anapolis. Now, I've only been there once before, when I was like 7 or so. I remember having to wait in line to prepay for your burger, then get called when it was done -- and those things were HUGE. I was stuffed! But finding a seat... OUI!

How things never change -- and reveal more about themselves.

Went in there, and got a 2/3rds pound The Works, which is your basic bacon and mushroom cheezeburger. Basic as in tasteless, but then most beef is until you add correct amounts of onion, salt, and garlic to bring out some flavor. I added honey mustard to mine... which I could tell right off the bat was Heinz's own brand (remember, I had worked at Muvico? They had honey mustard, and occassonaly I'd be tapped to refill the condiment stands). Ketchup is somehow standardized for me, and honey mustard better tasting. The fries are good, and the onion rings average. The Dr. Pepper they serve must be from a different manufacturing plant, since it has slightly more vannilla and sugar.

What does irk me is that they have chili on the menu... and it isn't chili. You can take one can of tomato paste, water it down, and add meat to it. It's that bad! Wendy's or even BurgerKing's chili isn't as bad. Of course, I'm talking non-spiced up chili. Nothing can beat the Price Family "Long-Burn" Chili, which uses several types of chilis and is so good, you need a bag of Frito's Scoops to eat it. [livejournal.com profile] cheftroy would love our chili.

Anyway, the mood of the place is buzy-buzy-buzy-always-packed. It took us a while to find 7 seats, and they're still calling out for those doing burgers. "WALKER 289!!! COME ON, YOUR BURGERS ARE GETTING COLD!!!" between Chrismas songs. Plus, you're ducking under old road signs. Come on, I'm 6'2" and I'm *DUCKING* under fake highway signs from the '60's and '70's?!? That's just more clutter to dodge!

The most important thing to note however are the bathrooms, which are large enough to accomidate, but then Home Depo put this one to shame eazy in terms of styles. I mean, come on! Paper towels that made you feel like you were the greasemonkey on a car, and dispensed that way? This is a restraunt, not a garage!!!

I doubt I'll be going back there unless invited.
