Yup. I think there used to be a location in Tsawassen Mills.

I’ve been there and Amberlamps took forever to show up, lol.

No more locations in BC. Every province, except BC. Go figure.

Love them or hate them but I wish we had even just one Arby's that wasn't Tsawassen.

No way man. Teen burgers are easily the best fast food burger around IMO.

I’ll see if the boy wants to go out for one later on.

I actually quite like the A&W burgers and the Teen Burger is one of my favourite options.

Well, I'm having my Teenburger as I watch the Jays' game. You guys are right. It's pretty good. No offers for a while, me thinks. The Jays are up against Aaron Judge, Giancarlo Stanton, Juan Soto, Anthony Rizzo, Alex Verdugo............... these guys should be called NY Giants. 3 game series............ maybe deals in a week, tee hee.

So I would generally agree A&W has the best actual burger when it comes to fast food, but outside buy one get one they’ve become incredibly expensive. I also think given the lineup I’d take a baconator over any A&W burger

Just in Vegas was able to satisfy my In-n-out craving. Fuck there is just something about in n out.. it’s such a weird thing because it seems like the general consensus is you either fucking love in n out, or it’s like meh this is just a regular burger, there’s not really any other restaurant chain that is so polarizing lol

My go to is 3x3 with grilled chopped chilis and onions, fuck hits the spot every single time

My perspective on in-n-out is that as a unique burger as it own thing (e.g. like a big Mac doesn't taste like a burger, it tastes like a big mac) it's really good, but if you wanna actually taste the beef and the flavor and quality of the Hamburger patty itself then I prefer shake shack.

Have you guys tried Burger Crush downtown? It's the closest approximation I could find to In n' Out in Vancouver, way better than Caliburger from a few years back.. Too bad it's like expensive as fuck though.

How much does an In n' Out 2x2 cost these days? The equivalent at Burger Crush is $16.

In n out is still a deal, even in Vegas

A double double, a 3x3, and animal style fries was only like $20 USD on the dot even at the strip location

For two big burgers and fries for $20 seems pretty good. A Big Mac is what $8-9 on a regular day with tax?

The way I approach the states is just don’t consider the conversion and think of it as a good deal lol

Yeah eating in the states is the same as here, except you end up paying 40% more when your card converts.

Even if it did, I have a feeling it doesn't taste the same. Nothing beats the taste of American cheese. Same thing with PandaExpress, the crappy Chinese food here is still way better than crappy Chinese food in the US.

I think Westopher mentioned before that the standard for food quality is much higher in Canada with our laws as compared to the US. Hence the different taste in cheese, chocolate, etc

You could be right, the suppliers are different country-by-country. But when I had SS in London England, it tasted pretty good. So I have high hopes.

The first time I went to SS was last Oct in San Diego, and it was great. Then I went to the one at Westfield food court and it was shit. I think it would highly depend on the store and how it's run, and also the suppliers they choose.

McD in Vancouver is better than US across the board because like you said our food standards and laws are higher. I'd hope it would translate to other franchises as well.
