Bob’s Big Boy

[RaggotFetard]

Burbank, California. The original. I was in the valley for a band rehearsal today and decided to drop in for dinner on my way back home.

Fucking hell, I forgot how good and inexpensive it was. I used to eat here all the time with my roommate when I lived in Burbank during the recession. One time, I even saw Jay Leno sitting by himself at a booth in his Canadian tuxedo after a day of filming The Tonight Show down the street from here.

All this for $13.99! Prices like these are unheard of in California nowadays, especially for Los Angeles. And it was delicious! Ps, I like black pepper on my garden salad, no judgies.

The white stuff is mayo, and the red salsa-looking stuff is their secret sauce (basically a tangier, sweeter thousand island).

Still has the diner feel. I’m pretty sure it was all old Jewish television and movie producers sat in the booths behind me. I sat at the bar since I was alone.

They have quirky decor and merch.

I bought a tee, cus what the hell. THAT was NOT cheap, however. $25.99. Bottom left.

Anywho. I’m moving to Chicago next month, so it was nice to drop into an old haunt one last time. Thanks for coming along. God bless.

Glad you felt the need to specify that.

If you’re in Chicago head over to Michigan or Indiana for Frisch’s big boy it’s very similar

I’m on a 700 calorie deficit at the moment and that burger looks great. Salad can fuck off tho.

The wholesomeness and earnest appreciation of this post took me by surprise a little. I'm on a mobile and didn't read the menu so scrolled down and saw that lacklustre looking salad and thought OP was being sarcastic about how it was great value for 13.99. Was expecting another jaded, "nice ......, stupid" thread. Good for you for enjoying yourself somewhere.

We used to have one, my parents would go for coffee there all the time.

This thread really tugs on the heartstrings, huh? so wholesome :3 ^_^

It's like a bourdain homage, just getting to the roots of classic americana

If I was sitting there, I'd think "Who's that faggot taking pictures of everything? what a douche".

We used to have one in the town I grew up in. We went there all the time when I was a kid. If I'm ever in Burbank I'll have to stop in. Great thread.
