    Which burger did you get Bengal B?

    If anyone here that knows about and have eatin at Riverside Patty can eat a double burger and a order of cajun Q's.....call me. I can eat more than anyone I know and I am kinda interested if any of the burger fans in here could challenge the cast iron pit known as my stomach. I did one time on a dare from the guys at work.....only problem was I was a work....and it was lunch....and I was pretty much immobilized after eating that much food.....if you attempt it, clear up your schedule for a few hours after for a nap.

    I just ordered the basic 1/2 pound hamburger with extra onions and a coke. It was about lunch time and I don't usually eat a big lunch so I didn't order any fries or onion rings. My queasiness went away shortly after I made the post this afternoon so I guess it was something other than the burger that caused it.

    I did notice that the prices for things other than burgers were pretty good. $4.99 for a softshell crab poboy is about $2 cheaper than anybody else in town. Have you ever gotten anything there other than a burger?

    How big are you shaq? As big as the other shaq? I am 6'3" 250 but you could probably out eat me in the burger competition unless I was really hungry but if it is crawfish you would have a serious challenge on your hands.

    Nah......I'm a poor college guy so I am still workin my way down the menu when i have the money. I have tried pretty much all the burgers they have though so I should make it into the poboy section soon. I wish i had the money to eat there more often but I dont. A couple guys from work have tried the poboys though and they were pretty impressed. I know that is heresay but thats the best I can do for you at this point.

    BTW.....Im 6'2 bout 260......i am workin on losin some though.....you might see me around the lakes if u r ever around LSU at 7-8 in the morning on MWF....

    A crawfish challenge????????? IM THERE!!!!!!! I LOVE CRAWFISH

    I miss the Big Bertha at the old Ruby's. So did my beagle, since I could never finish one and he always got scraps.

    I ate at "Cheeburger, Cheeburger" this past weekend...meeting my sister there for dinner tonight. Outstanding. It's a 50's style diner.

    Red55, I remember the Big Bertha, but I used to go there as a little kid, so I never ordered one.

    Dallas folks:

    I'll ditto you on Snuffer's (there's also an Addison and now, thankfully, Plano locations). Keller's is also awesome.

    Ben's Half-yard House on Greenville has a terrific burger--and they host the alumni watching parties for LSU games. I haven't made it to one since I became a mom and a suburbanite, though.

    Chuck's is good, too, as is Scotty P's in Plano, Frisco, and Allen.
