But notice the deafening silence of the women hereabouts. :twisted:

Yeah. For example, my wife will eschew a hamburger, but scarf down a sloppy joe. Go figure.

I was afraid this thread was going to be about a bath house in San Francisco...

I saw most of it just to get an idea of how the new 3-4 would work. It worked.

Speaking for myself and probably a few other females here.....we women know that we can make a better burger at home, might it be gr. turkey, chicken or tuna....they are better and healthier. Now the fries I make at home beat any I can get at a fast food joint... really big ones, with a nice crunch and buttery on the inside - baked with just a light coating of EVOO, dipped in home made ketchup, of course. Much better! Oh, and for fillings, you can't beat a just picked Beefsteak tomato, as big as the burger and a pile of home grown lettuce thrown in. Last night I even sautéed some red onions from the Farmer's Market to pile on our burgers.

Bill, one just opened in Louisville. Eastern suburbs, which adds a couple of miles to your hike, but closer than Cincinnati for you, I believe.

Oops, just noticed that there's one in Southern Indiana on the north side of New Albany, which should be downright handy. It doesn't show on the national map on their Website, but use the Store Locator,
http://www.fiveguys.com/locations.aspx
and enter 40201 (or your own ZIP, I guess), and it will show you both of them.

The East Louisville property is a hot topic in the Louisville Restuarants Forum:
