Hi Jim,


 JW> Fatburger

 RH> That's one we don't have in the States.

 JW> It's actually an American company but they are located mostly in the
 JW> western states. They moved into Canada but again, only in the

Just one I've not seen then, even with all the times we've been out
west.

 JW> west. They've been in Alberta about 15 years and in Yellowknife for
 JW> five. They have a retro 50s vibe, big thick meaty burgers (1/3 and
 JW> 1/2 lb fresh, never frozen Alberta Angus beef patties), a number of
 JW> variations on loaded fries (chili cheese, nacho, poutine and
 JW> lumberjack (poutine plus maple bacon and fried onions) and good
 JW> milkshakes made with real ice cream. Everything is cooked to order.
 JW> They are more expensive than most of the other fast food places but
 JW> worth it.

Looks a lot better than most all of the big name burger places we've
seen/tried.


 EH> Cute name

 JW> It's a reference to the large thick patties.

Also to the shape you'll be after indulging in a few of them.(G)

 JW>   Andy and Marian Wong, Byron II Steakhouse, Honolulu

 RH> I think that's new since we came back from HI

 JW> It was a fixture for many decades and closed some time ago. Some of
 JW> their house recipes linger on thanks to the Internet.

OK, we never saw them but we didn't get around all of Honolulu, just the
important parts. (G)
