This is just for my friends in Los Angeles. Yet another Five Guys has opened in our midst — in Westwood Village at 1061 Broxton Ave. I haven't been there yet and may not be in the area for some time but it's there and I'll bet the burgers and fries are quite wonderful. Another is under construction at Coldwater Canyon and Ventura out in Studio City.
I'm sorry, folks. I know that as a native Angeleno, I'm supposed to worship at the altar of In-N-Out. Once upon a time, I did. But either their food has changed or my taste buds have changed or maybe both. I no longer think In-N-Out is the best or even a contender for great fast food burgers…and I never thought their fries were very good. I rarely eat that kind of food at all these days but when I do, I eat it at Five Guys. And no, despite how it may sound, I'm not kissing up in the hope of scoring some free meal tickets.
