[Villages PL]

As if we need another hamburger restaurant in The Villages, not to mention another bar in America's healthiest hometown. I think The Villages could just as well be called, "The Burger & Booze Capital of Florida.

The article I read said that the restaurant will have "crystal chandeliers, table linens and Class A service...." If the Queen of England ever comes to visit The Villages, this will be the place for her to try the taste of a delux hamburger. Hamburgers are finally going "high class", with prices to match.

This is going to be McDonald's on steriods, except there won't be any actual steriods or antibiotics. Everything will be all natural, whatever that means. (No definition of "all natural" was given.)

Now here's the best part: The article said the restaurant will be "vegan-friendly". I think that means the servers will give a welcoming smile to vegans and pretend that vegans are no different than their "normal" customers. We can't complain; at least they acknowledge that we exist. We should be thankful.

The article went on to say that they make their own vegan burger. The implication is that vegans are deprived and can't be happy unless they are offered a fake high-sodium burger on a seriously compromised and gooey "whole wheat" bun.

But, hey, we vegans are beggars and beggars can't be choosers. We'll take whatever we can get. Bring on the high-sodium imitation meat products!

Have some fiber- make your innards feel good.

I have never heard of Square 1 Burgers and Bar. Where is it going to be?

I just looked at their online menu. Chances are the prices might have to be adjusted for food, shakes, and drinks for what is the norm for Villagers. Looked like a nice selection, though.

If they are making fresh..the sodium would not be as prevalent

Check out the menu that Gracie posted. Burgers START at $9.00 (whew).

No competition for Steak & Shake!

You cannot whine about not having any restaurants and then when one is coming start bi&^%(* about what they offer. No one is required to attend the new place. jeesch!

I personally would vote for "Burger Fi" hamburger restaurant. I would invite VPL, but he can't eat meat, not to mention the unhealthy fries.

I told you not to mention, unhealthy fries.

No kidding!!!

Give me a nice juicy burger with cheese and bacon, and I'm a happy camper!
Fries unhealthy....what???? The greasier, the better!

A complaint about $9.00 hamburgers? Someone hasn't checked prices lately for burgers. An $8.99 hamburger is not unusual here in the Villages.You'd pay $13 or $14 in NYC.
