Regional fast food: In and out burger - Phoenix Arizona and Ogden Utah

March 7, 2018

Many people know about In-N-Out Burger and I always like to stop in when we’re near one. In an out has a burger that might not the greatest burger ever but it’s very good and I think it’s one of the best fast food burgers there is. 

I just ordered a single cheeseburger with onion which turns out to be a whole slice of onion with special sauce, lettuce, tomato and a perfectly toasted bun. I really enjoyed all of this but I didn’t really like their french fries.

I have never really had Hawaiian food before and was interested in trying it out.  I’ve had Korean Bulgogi before but wasn’t sure how it compared to the Hawaiian version.

 I decided to get Mix Plate #2 which came with Bulgogi and Chicken Katsu.  This plate came with two scoops of white rice, macaroni salad and also barbecue sauce for the Katsu chicken. I thought the Bulgogi tasted all right but it didn’t seem like it was very seasoned or marinated just basically grilled meat. It was also very tough and hard to chew. The Chicken Katsu was cut into strips and easy to eat. The outside breading was nice and crispy and the barbecue sauce with it was good but it just tasted like regular barbecue sauce not anything very different. The rice was plain but okay, the macaroni salad was all right. It also had potatoes in it which I don’t know if that’s normal or not, but I thought it was the best part of it. Also on the plate was a little piece of pineapple.  This was good but I wish there would’ve been more of it. They also had fortune cookies. I don’t know if that’s normal either.  The food here didn’t excite me too much and I don’t really want to return.

This is a small family run restaurant. When we arrived for probably a slightly late launch, the place was fairly full and they had to clean off a table for us.   After a short wait we were seated and our extra friendly waitress came shortly after.  I ordered the turkey Reuben, dad got the eggs and sausage breakfast, and Mom got the eggs and bacon breakfast.

 

 I’d never had a turkey Reuben before so I figured I’d try it. I thought it was pretty good and I think I might’ve liked it a little better than a regular Reuben with corn beef. The fries were ok but not really too good.

Mom and dad both had a good basic breakfast.
