Kittyn Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 ZOMG. I LOVE IN-N-OUT! it's one of the things I miss the most about living in California =( basically, it's the best burger joint in the US. and the oldest drive thru, if I'm not mistaken. at least the oldest in Cali, for sure. most are strictly drive thru, but I'm pretty sure there are new ones that have an actual restaurant area now. but the best part is that everything is fresh! no frozen patties or anything like that, plus real ice cream shakes. and if you're there at the right time, you can even see them slicing potatoes for fries =) aww, now I went and made myself all hungry by talking about it! Airi, I would SO come to visit you just to have another chance to go there!! LOL Quote

Airi, I would SO come to visit you just to have another chance to go there!! LOL You should come down and visit! Ahaha xD In the city I live (Chula Vista, the "richer" part of San Diego) the In-N-Out is ALWAYS crowded lol. I loooooove their animal style fries, and one of my favorite things about San Diego is the California Burritos~ (burrito stuffed with carne asada beef, french fries, cheddar cheese and sour cream). Gah! I am so going to miss Cali when I study abroad for 4-5 years ): Quote

I only went to San Diego for the Zoo and Sea World, plus I was pretty young when I lived in Cali, so I don't remember a whole lot. I did tell one of my old friends from there that I'd come back and visit him some day. hehehe where are you going overseas to? I have this dream of vacationing in Greece, Rome, or Egypt... I'm a bit of a mythology fanatic =) Quote

I'm a bit of a mythology fanatic =) I went all over San Diego ahaha xD Been here all my life~ And I am going to Philippines, Australia, France and Italy to study abroad at an international culinary school The school has different branches will all the countries mentioned and students are allowed to study 1-2years in the countries they want to go. (: And I love Mythology, it was my best subject in Academic Decathlon. Quote

(: And I love Mythology, it was my best subject in Academic Decathlon. I applied for a Rotary Exchange when I was a Freshman in HS. I wanted to go to Australia bc I had an RP buddy that lived over there LOL. sadly, I was not chosen for the Exchange hahaha =) I bet the Philippines would be interesting! I wouldn't mind checking it out some day... but I'm disgustingly jealous that you'll be in both France and Italy. Italy for obvious reasons and France because it's one of the fashion capitals in the world (although Italy is too)! *watches too much ANTM* Quote

nerd4lifee Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Omg that actually sounds so good ......................... one question though - do they have veggie burgers? XD Quote
Airiya Posted April 14, 2011 Posted April 14, 2011 Omg that actually sounds so good ......................... one question though - do they have veggie burgers? XD No they don't. There's something called a "secret" In-N-Out menu, basically things not on the menu. They do have something called "Grilled Cheese" it is exactly like the Double Double burger but they replace the meat patty with thick slices of tomato. It's actually really good if you're vegetarian (my best friend had this all the time) or just watching calories lol. I actually really love getting this when I don't feel like eating meat. Omg there is also something called "The Flying Dutchman" is it literally a meat patty with cheese, no bun or veggies or sauce. I saw our high school football team just order 30 of those x_x Quote

That's actually crazy *thinks about other potentially Pirates related food ....* *_* Quote
Masaryk Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 No they don't.

I saw our high school football team just order 30 of those x_x My husband is on a low-carb diet. He would absolutely love that. We are nowhere near an In-N-Out, however. Quote
livvy Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 We are nowhere near an In-N-Out, however. Nor am I. But I want one! I've only been to an In-N-Out once, and I was too young to even remember what I had. But it was REALLY REALLY good. I at least remember that. The only decent burger-type place we have around here is Five Guys. It's pretty good, in that it's naturally unhealthy for you, rather than being packed with chemical unhealthiness. :P Quote

I'm not big into burger places. Quote

Being veg and all I don't eat out much :P Quote
FluffeeBunny Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 We only have McDonald's and Burger King around here. The nearest ones are right next to each other and there's also a Dairy Queen next to them as well. I find it funny how Burger KING and Dairy QUEEN were next to each other. Quote
Noog Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 We have a Burger King, Wendy's, Taco Bell, McDonald's, Sonic, and two Subways for fast food. Quote
Spritzie Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 We have tons of everything here. Dozens of Starbucks, McD's, Wendys, Arbys, Taco Bell, Carl's Jr, Jack in the Box, etc. (But then again, I live in the 2nd largest city in Colorado. We have nearly 500k people though.) Quote
livvy Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 What's a Jack in the Box, Spritz? I've never heard of it. Quote
Airiya Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 I don't even have one of those :P we have a McDonald's .... but where doesn't :P we used to have a Wendy's, but then it went away. Being veg and all I don't eat out much :P Omg, do you have a Island's Burger & Drinks restaurant there (or many another Sani Diego/California only thing)? Their black bean burgers are the best -was vegetarian- xD Quote
Masaryk Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 My town has McDonald's, Burger King, Subway, Wendy's, Dairy Queen, KFC, and Taco Bell. We also have some Canadian chains, like Tim Hortons, Harvey's, A&W, Country Style, Mr. Sub, and Arby's. Quote
Noog Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Livvy, Jack in the box is amazing. :P I only listed what was in my small town. Within a 20 minute drive is a bigger variety, but not most of the chains I'm reading about here... Quote
Kittyn Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Lol yea well I am excited to go to France and Italy because of the food xD Australia just for sightseeing and the Philippines is where some of my family I never met before lives O: whoa, that's really cool. I'm actually 1/8 Filipino. also 1/8 Japanese, 1/4 Korean and 1/2 Mexican. talk about an odd blend =) I have a running joke with some of my friends bc I don't act like the majority of the Mexicans in our little town. they say I'm more of a white girl than anything else and my fake name (to give to creepers when I'm out and about) is Mary-Alice. you wouldn't believe how many people actually believe that's my real name LOL We have tons of everything here. Dozens of Starbucks, McD's, Wendys, Arbys, Taco Bell, Carl's Jr, Jack in the Box, etc. (But then again, I live in the 2nd largest city in Colorado. We have nearly 500k people though.) that means you're not too far from where I live, Spritzie! and as for my town's restaurants... for fast food franchises, we have A&W, Taco Johns (my personal fave), Subway, Arbys and McDonalds. then we have a handful of locally owned places that are pretty dang good. Quote
Tedhaun Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 I have the following restaurants near where I live: McDonald's Burger King Chelo's (I think) Papa Ginos Taco Bell ...along with some miscellaneous local pizza and chicken joints. Papa Gino's has good pizza, but I'm more of a Pizza Hut person myself. :P Quote
Wembly Posted April 15, 2011 Posted April 15, 2011 Sonic SONIC! OMG :yum: I am absolutely in love with Sonic. So amazing :woot: We just got one here in the past couple years and I think I am addicted. Unfortunately its not particularly all the close to me, probably like 45 minutes away because of the stupid need to drive all the way down the island then back, seriously if I just had like a boat I could be there in like 5 minutes :rolleyes_anim: Then again, I'd probably be huge if it was next door. Their tots are amazing. Aww man, now I want to go there :( Quote

I'm 1/2 Filipino (some Spaniard blood somewhere), 1/4 Japanese and 1/4 Chinese, but people think I'm just Hawaiian or full Filipino since I am so tan (maybe it's cause all that surfing, typical California stereotype xP) Quote
