Burgers, chicken sandwiches, shakes -- all immaculately prepared with expert attention paid to every detail. Piping hot meat, the freshest hamburger buns (just warmed, melt in your mouth), a light spread of their delicious shoyu-mayo, fresh lettuce, tomato, etc... Great fries, too -- whole potatoes, cross cut w/ skin on, fresh fried, lightly salted -- delicious!! Conveniently open 7 days a week until 9PM (8 on Sunday).

I do love that inimitable Hawaiian flavor... About your heading -- I am one of those people that refers to Whole Foods as "Whole Paycheck"...so much fun, but such an expensive little experience it can be.

I only go after picking up the basics at Safeway or Fred Meyer and gorging myself on 2 chicken Primo burgers and an order of fries! I've found this to be more or less effective in ensuring I at least have money left over for gas and electricity to cook/refrigerate my WF bounty ;-). -- C'pn Sat Apr 13 21:50:43 -0700 2002 13162 0 Cap'n Crunch 1 13203 I'll second half of this recommendation: I thought the burgers were underwhelming, but the fries were quite good.

I have tried their burger once and, while it was quite good, I agree there are better ones to be had. I'm most impressed by their attention to quality and detail. Hard to find at that price. -- C'pn Sat Apr 13 21:36:39 -0700 2002 13203 0 Cap'n Crunch
