What a crock. How about In n Out just open a proper restaurant already? 3 or 4 in Auckland even. Licence to print money
Looked at that, and weighed up 2 hours in queue (it's alwyas a brutal queue) vs a burger. Decided not to, but god please open one here. Would be great.
There are great burgers around Auckland. Burger Geek was amazing (haven't been in a while though), and the one from Billy on Carlton Gore Road is exceptional. Maybe we need a burger thread
“Haven’t been in a while though “
.....and there lies the issue with the food business in NZ.
Don’t get me wrong the behaviour is much the same elsewhere, but combined with our small population every time you don’t go (even on a few times a year treat) is a nail in the coffin. Then everyone moans that we don’t have something that they thought was great.
If you want something to stay you have to support it.Meanwhile I’m in the “who cares, I can make a better one myself” brigade. A few years of overpriced and underwhelming burgers in London has put me off anything not homemade. Even the supposedly amazing ones are just gimmicks.

Reasons not to visit the nations armpit #1256 . I suspect there’s more to this story than the people in the interview are letting on

That one happens to be just because it's a detour to get there - and they are interimittently open that doesn't help getting the family there. Got one initially because we were unusually in the area - but Auckland with traffic means if it's not where you live/work, it's got to be incrediballs to make the effort.

Anyone prepared to queue that long for a burger is either insane, or on the verge of starvation.
Canberra (because the place is infested with retards) would queue for 45-60 mins or more for a Brodburger. A fucking hamburger and they were shit.
Just proof there's nothing to do if you're prepared to give up that amount of time in your life for a burger.

It's so fucking stupid. How many of those people would still queue if the prize at the end was $7 in coins? (Or whatever a burger costs)
It blows my mind.
If $7 is worth 2 hours of your time, go and get a fucking paper run.

@Bones that really is an absolute shocker. The best explanation I've seen is that they had the footage lined up for a story on James passing Kobe on all time points and didn't bother to change it. Fucking idiots.

Some of you really are a bunch of miserable old bastards aren't you. Sit there and mock and enjoy your home made burgers and craft beer bollocks all you want, but if these people enjoyed it, then so what?
Inn-n-out burger I've had a few times and it's not my thing. It simply tastes like a slightly fresher fast food burger. Not bad, but not amazing. But I understand these people because if Ichiran Ramen or Sen-Ryo Sushi had a pop up in the UK, I'd happily queue two hours for it. No different time wastage than driving an hour to a restaurant of your choice.

That's awesome! With all the Lawrence Fox generated talk of fake racism etc, this is classic!

More likely a direct result of diversity in action I suspect. Their news teams are probably popping at the seams with diversity hires who have little time for sports. It’s not really that they think LeBron and Kobe look the same, it’s that they have no idea what any basketball player looks like, and no inclination to find out. I suspect the days when being a sports fan was a prerequisite to working in sports reporting are long gone.

David Lammy has already said it’s a direct result of not having enough people of colour in the BBC ...

No idea how I did that , I usually go with adding spoilers when I don’t have a spoiler
BBC mistakenly screens footage of LeBron James in Kobe death report
