| - GOOD RIDDANCE!
After reading Googs and other chain-haters on Chowhound shill for this place since the day it opened, some even suggesting that it would put Five Guys out of business, this is POETIC JUSTICE! I don't buy their excuses of high costs and that they're too busy with their catering business.
If they were doing as well as Googs and "You Gotta Eat Here" made them out to be, they'd still be open, or moved to a new location. The catering business was profitable, obviously the restaurant was not. They couldn't compete against Five Guys. If you want to compete in the big leagues you have to at least SHOW UP, and these guys rarely did -- short hours, unannounced closings, etc. Five Guys is open and ready to serve their customers 11am to 10pm every day without question.
Googs, come out and say it: Five Guys whupped their ass and ran them out of town. Admit it, I WAS RIGHT AND YOU WERE WRONG. Burger Night in Scarborough final score: American chain 1, Canadian local poseur 0. AS IT ALWAYS WILL BE.
Let's face it, Goody's Diner served MEATLOAF BURGERS (yuck), copied recipes and photographs straight out of an American website (Wisconsin Dairy Board), and acted like they created it all. Googs, can you say PLAGIARISM? Take a look and see for yourself: http://www.cheeseandburger.com/
It feels great to be able to post this publically here and tell it like it is, since if this were posted on Chowhound their unfair moderators would have deleted it in short order.
Damn this felt great to write!
