Five Guys
20091211:
After Rachel picked me up, we picked Issel up and headed to this burger place called Five Guys. The burger was good, but I didn't get a chance to try the fries because they were cooked in peanut oil. And while I've had soy sauce with peanut oil, my experience beyond it was limited.*
I want to vomit when I eat peanuts and I once broke out in hives when I ate something with sesame oil. But the sesame seeds on a hamburger bun don't bother me at all. I typically dislike the taste of tofu, but tofu wrapped shrimp is bearable, I suppose because its fried and thus killing any protein that cause my allergic reactions.
In any case, after eating at five guys, we went bowling. I have a little story to tell there, so check it out.
*The next entry states that I eventually discovered (some time during Summer 2010) that I can safely food cooked in peanut oil.

This is my second time to a Five Guys. The first time was in Maryland. I guess it was, up until recently, an East Coast franchise. I got a
That's what the receipt says anyhow... That is a bacon cheeseburger (two patties), lettuce, pickle, tomato, grilled onions, and mushroom. $6.39+tax=$6.95. Oh I also split an order of large fries with my friend Josh. I hadn't tried the fries at the Five Guys in Maryland, because of the peanut oil. But last summer I went to a burger place down at Metro Pointe called Boardwalk: Fresh Burger & Fries (which is similar to Five Guys) which also had fries fried in peanut oil. I had tried it then without a problem. Of course, prior to trying the fries I had done some research regarding peanut oil. The fries at Five Guys is alright. I wouldn't go to Five Guys just for the fries.
The burger was delicious. It is nice to have options of what you want to put on your burger. Just covering burgers, first it's one or two patties (little or regular). Second, cheese or no cheese (regular or cheeseburger). Third, bacon or no bacon. Then you can choose toppings. Mayo, lettuce, pickles, tomatoes, grilled onions, grilled mushrooms, ketchup, mustard. Relish, onions, jalapeno peppers, green peppers, A.1 sauce, bar-b-q sauce, hot sauce.
On a slightly different note, I'd say my peanut allergy is mild. My symptoms involve itching/tingling in or around the mouth and a strong desire to vomit. Typically if I vomit then I feel much better than trying to hold it in. The sickness is positively correlated with the amount I accidentally ingest.

Having attended the Joint Math Meeting being held over at The Baltimore Convention Center this year (it rotates from city to city across the United States every year), I decided to walk over to Five Guys to get my lunch.

I wrote: "I saw the prices at Edo and looked the place up on Yelp. However, from what I could tell, it wouldn't be worth the price. That's when I decided to eat at Five Guys. Today, I got the same order as yesterday: all the way, no mayo, green peppers, BBQ. It was as delicious as yesterday's order. The burger was also better than my last In-N-Out burger." 12:39PM ET

It's been a while since I've eaten at Five Guys and today I chose it over the other options available to me. It was, however, the first time I ordered a salad wrapped burger at Five Guys.
Compared to a protein-style In-N-Out burger, it was messier and the patty didn't taste as good. While the benefits of a Five Guys burger is the choice of toppings, the ingredients in the burger were uneven and would have required some work to balance.
On a different note, next time I would skip the peppers and get extra pickles.
