WITCHCRAFT posted:Do they still sell the fuckoff huge paper bag of fries? I haven't been in like 10 years but one largest size fry was enough for a table of 4 and helped offset the overall cost. Yeah, they do. The first time I ever had 5 guys I kind of knew about the fries and ordered a small. The guy at the register screamed back in a very sarcastic way, "SMALL FRY". I still got a full bag of fries and they were delicious, but also gently caress that guy. What I can't figure out is why the regular fries are crispy but the cajun fries are soggy af. Is it the spices soaking up the grease? The cajun fries are still good as hell but why can't they be crispy?? I get seasoned fries from a local Greek place and they season the gently caress out of them right in front of me and they are still crispy so I don't know what the hell is going on at 5 guys. I just want crispy cajun fries, is that too much to ask???

I don’t think I’ve really ever gotten crisp fries from Five Guys (unless you count the tiny slivers). They’re always limp.

My main complaint with 5 guys is how long it takes. Before they franchised all over the world I made a point once to get to the Old Town Alexandria place right as they opened at 11am. I was customer #1. I ordered a little cheeseburger and fries. I got my food at 11:20. I don't get the complaints about the cheese. It is the only cheeseburger place where the cheese is completely melted onto the burger. If you didn't see them put it on there before cooking you wouldn't be able to tell the size or shape. And it does taste good if you like a lot of grease. The fries are lovely that's why they give you so much.

Arby's curly fries I guess. The spicy ones. Chickfila waffle fries are also pretty good if they are hot. McDonald's hash browns are consistently great.

Sonic are kings for putting a lime wedge and cherry in their soft drinks, and even pinning the cherry to the drink lid so it’s easy to get at.

I'm the only one in my entire circle of friends who likes five guys fries, they want them thinner and crispier, so I get outvoted and never get to go. Sadly it makes me think it's better than it really is.

Has the best Five Guys of my life tonight. Bacon cheeseburger with just grilled onions and grilled mushrooms. Regular fries with a splash of malt vinegar. Often I overcomplicate the burger with too many condiments (A1 sauce has no place on anything tbh) but I was rewarded by playing it safe.

Futanari Damacy posted:A1 sauce has no place on anything tbh Blasphemy. A1 is amazing on fries and it’s acceptable on scrambled eggs.  I miss the stacks of peanuts all over the place. Not sure if this is nationwide but around here they still have the pandemic (and/or profit margin) protections in place so if you want peanuts you have to request some JetBlue sized portion at the counter. Look, I’ve already downed a weekly allowance of grease so I’m not exactly trying to stay healthy here. Bring back the peanuts! I want to FEAST on those peanuts!!

I tried making some Five Guys cajun seasoning and whilst it was nice in its own right, it was gently caress all like the real thing. Bacon cheeseburger, jalapenos (like the one place I've ever comes across that has them fresh not pickled, love it), extra bacon, extra hot sauce. With a pot of hot sauce on the side for drizzling, and a pot of cajun seasoning since there's never enough on the fries. And a chocolate peanut butter milkshake.

Why put the cheese on bottom? I feel like that has a good portion to do with why so much of it ran off the sides and off onto the paper instead of melting on the patties. I mean, I'm not saying you did this, but more of a weird decision for them to make, probably to be "different" as a franchise, but it just seems unintuitive and dumb.

They don't charge for extra cheese. I can't think of another place where that is also the case. Their continuously rising prices have always made me feel like, so far, they haven't compromised the 'quality' of any of their items, where I've never gotten that feeling with any other chain.

Like this exact thing? The technical name for this is a ramekin but in my experience most people just refer to it by what it contains- a dip, or a sauce for example. The pizza place near me gives their chilies and parm in these to-go, but I would just ask for chilies or parm and not a container of chilies or a container of parm ----------------
