I had thought that Smash Burger was rather bland and boring, but Five Guys easily beats them out for just kinda ... I don't know. \n\nThe burger has next to no flavour - what kind of meat is it really? - and there are hardly any condiments to add to it to overcome the lack of taste in the meat. This is a poor burger, but it certainly looks okay and IS edible. \nWhat kinda gets to me is that it seems that most people don't know what a truly great burger is, and in so not knowing, we get used to something that's not good, but for a lack of a benchmark or a true representation of things, we settle for the mediocre and call it good. \n\nWithout any input from the guest, the fries are simply too salty for some people (esp. with hbp), yet are quite good as a sidekick, but the burgers are the feature, are they not?\n\nI also tried their milkshakes, and well, what unimpressive flavor and size, for a huge price. They try to spice them up, but the recommended switch-it-up flavors of chocolate with caramel was not all that good, and the 'whipped cream' was that aerosol junk that leaves a scum on the back of the tongue.\n \nSo what do you really get? \nDecent free pre-salted un-shelled peanuts. \nSo do we drop in for the peanuts and leave? \nOr maybe go next door, and bring back a Blaze pizza to go with the peanuts.\nNow there's an idea..."^^ . .
