We're not fat, we're curvy! -- getting some Fatburgers in Canada

Fatburger @ Thornhill
DD#1 and I were not really looking for a burger place. We were, however, looking for a place to get a quick lunch so we could get on with our shopping. Up in Thornhill, I discovered that there was a Fatburger branch. As the LA chain’s only location in Ontario, we had to check it out. Fatburger was founded in 1952 and has locations in almost 20 countries.

There were several sizes of the Fatburger and you can find other fast-food options—fries, onion rings, milk shakes, etc. We both got a small Fatburger with cheese. Upon ordering, you decide what you want added (or removed) from your burger. Only then will they cook the burgers. They had a nice poster up explaining why things might take a little longer than usual—they cook the burgers to order and they don’t microwave the patty.

Small was a good portion for us, especially since at that time, we just had breakfast a couple of hours prior. The beef was juicy and flavourful and the burger was packed. It was pretty good, though not the best burger I’ve had. It was better, though, and therefore, more expensive than your usual meals at other burger joints. $20 for 2 small Fatburgers with cheese plus a pop was not exactly a value meal. It was a good place to hang out and service was good, so it may be a better option if you are looking for something fancier than the usual.
