I<br />love them! ... and soon to have a Starbuck's. <br /><br />I gotta, gotta move there :-)"<br /><br />My reply to her is:<br /><br />The only concern about Starbucks coming in is that they are notorious for wiping out mom & pop shops that have good coffee.

You're right about apples and oranges in comparing LottaBurgers to In-and-Out burgers. Sometimes it boils down to what's available, but LottaBurger craving isn't sated with other burgers; this I know for sure!Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-6991564367975784242006-11-17T15:02:00.000-07:002006-11-17T15:02:00.000-07:00I've never heard of a 'Crystal Burger', but I am a...I've never heard of a 'Crystal Burger', but I am a burger lover from way back and would be very open to giving one a try. I can tell you, Lynilu, that I had my fair share of Lotaburgers when living in NM - several times a week in fact! In-and-Out is fabulous too, but a competition between the two seems like an apples and oranges kind of thing.<br /><br />Gotta go.

I'm just wondering where the other Southwesterners are, 'cause I know some of them read this blog. C'mon, guys, help me out here!!<br /><br />ragged - I know the happy dance! My husband used to almost twitch when we neared NM on a visit. He often bought one at the first location, and I had to drive after that because he was too happy and relaxed to drive! Not only that, but a few times, stopped as left the state, bought several of them, asking for the lettuce, onion, tomato, etc. on the side; then he put the bun and meat in a cooler to get them home! He used to say a "thawed" Lotta Burger was better than any other fresh one. I wouldn't go that far, but they are good!<br /><br />caroline - In-and-Out-Burger is good but I still like LB better.<br /><br />s3 - I hope you do try them! I promise they're not made in China!! (sorry, folks, a little personal humor)<br /><br />seven - You got a deal!! I wonder how many would show up?

When I was in CA we ate at In-in-Out Burger. Now that is good. I keep hoping we will get one in KC, but it seems that my wishing is doing no good.Carolinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14476059033054104085noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-22176981506866213402006-11-16T10:34:00.000-07:002006-11-16T10:34:00.000-07:00Not familiar with Lotta Burger, but I understand c...Not familiar with Lotta Burger, but I understand completely.

A drawback to the location I'm considering is that never, no way will I ever have a pizza delivered there! And Pizza is one that you do when your already home, tucked in and cozy. Drat! I think there is a Papa John's, so I'll have to learn to plan ahead before getting cozy. <br /><br />I am not familiar with Krystal Burger, so I can't compare it to Lotta Burger. I know White Castle, and there is not even a close race on those 2. Trust me, LB wins, hands down! Dare I say it like this? "I know Lotta Burger, and you, White Castle, are no Lotta Burger." LOL, sorry, that was just bubbling in my head and had to come out!Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-14919554526619662692006-11-16T08:32:00.000-07:002006-11-16T08:32:00.000-07:00I know what you mean, exactly!

Have you had one the NM way, with green chili? yummmmmm. You were small when your family moved to . . . (hee hee) that OTHER state. Did you remember them before you returned?<br /><br />old lady - If you ever venture this direction from that OTHER ;-)) state, be sure to try one. I can't explain why they are soo good, but even when I began eating more sensibly, that is the one "sin" food that is irrestible. And burgers aren't necessarily a favorite food of mine, but these particular ones run right up on the top of the list.Lyniluhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04742585512852240355noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-28840534.post-39253132248075350672006-11-16T07:05:00.000-07:002006-11-16T07:05:00.000-07:00I haven't even had breakfast yet but that sounds w...I haven't even had breakfast yet but that sounds wonderful!
