Our 50th anniversary is in 3 weeks. I was considering Culver’s for our special 50th anniversary dinner but went there for the first time to check out their food a week ago . Sorry, I’ll take our party to Wendy’s or steak and shake. As a “fast foodie/junk foodie for life” that was by far the worst alleged hamburger I have ever scarfed down. It was like “hey, have some burger with your salt” and I am obviously NOT fussy when it comes to food. The “custard “ was ok but when they call it a “mix in” they should actually MIX IT IN and not just sprinkle the Oreos on top.

Was all excited when I first heard about Culver’s. A new junkyfood place to eat. Boy was it ever a letdown. Yuch.

Looks like Wendy’s for our special day.

When you travel and see them all over--"what's to get excited about"-- would you all get excited when another fast food junk food restaurant opened in TV

My English teacher friend had a great marriage. His wife had a sense of humor and he would always introduce Cathy as his first wife. She along with everyone else would laugh every time.

Ahh c'mon, BK is woefully inadequate...for 50 years.


Much more appropriate for the occasion...would be Golden Corral.

48 years in August.
My husband used to refer to our oldest son as CFrance's son by her first marriage.

I was selling my country home in the Pine Barrens of NJ myself and a potential buyer, female, from NYC asked if I had any pets. I thought I was clever because I said "I didn't want someone living here that didn't look like me." Without missing a beat she said "I can find a dog that looks like you." I decided selling a house is not a good time to interject humor with women from NYC.

OH THE BURN!


I know you laughed though...and she probably appreciated it.

We can’t agree on the burger. The patty looked like someone stepped on it and without the tomato and mayo would have had no taste at all.

Having enjoyed the custard, I took the plunge and had a burger. Apparently, the cook was unaware that the flavor of meat is in the juices as all the taste had been pressed out of my patty. The cold bottom bun was in interesting touch.

Sorry to hear. I had the Reuben when I was there and it tasty and not soggy at all. That kind of inconsistency is what finally made me stop going to Crispers.

Default Tried Culver's twice.

The second time, was to see if my totally unsatisfactory first visit...was just an anomaly.

It wasn't.
