Happy National Cheeseburger Day! 🍔
Here’s my potentially friendship-ending Las Vegas opinion:
I’d take an In-N-Out Double-Double over Gordon Ramsay Burger at Planet Hollywood. Every. Single. Time.
There. I said it. 😂
We ended up at Gordon Ramsay Burger hungry, more than a little intoxicated, and mostly looking for somewhere nearby to sit, eat and people-watch.
And once again, we left thinking the exact same thing:
“That was… fine.”
And for me, fine is the problem.
The burger was fine. The service was slow. Our server seemed less than thrilled to be there. Nothing was terrible — but when you're paying Vegas celebrity-chef prices, shouldn't the experience be better than fine?
Now compare that with In-N-Out.
For a fraction of what we spent, I thought the Double-Double tasted better. The staff were smiling, joking around and somehow moving with the precision of a NASCAR pit crew. 😂
Cheap? Yep.
Fancy? Absolutely not.
Did I enjoy it more? 100%.
And I'm completely willing to spend stupid amounts of money on food in Vegas when the experience earns it. Incredible food, amazing service, great atmosphere? Take my money. 💸
But when we're talking about something as beautifully uncomplicated as a cheeseburger…
sometimes less really is more.
So, for National Cheeseburger Day, you've got these two options in Vegas:
🍔 In-N-Out Double-Double
🔥 Gordon Ramsay Burger
