Always get in n out when I go west.

My first In ''n Out was the one on Vineyard in Ontario - right by the old entrance to ONT. Since then, I have scoped out and dined in the ones closest to LAX, SAN, SFO, FAT, PSP, and LAS once arriving at those airports. And, if I'm taking the noon balloon back east (home is DC), I remember that they actually open at 10am (even though the sign says 1030a) and will stop for a double-double before heading back home. It beats airplane food, even what passes for first class these days.

A few more In-N-Out's have opened in Colorado over the past few months. One of the newer ones is down in Castle Rock. Mrs. Swede and Baby Swede stopped by on a Friday evening after an errand to bring home dinner, and they said indoor and drive-thru lines were non-existent. The Park Meadows location wasn't terribly busy the last time I was there a few months ago. They're supposed to open another one later this year in the same general area. Maybe not a great idea? Maybe they're expanding too fast?

I remember when the one at Park Meadows opened. The line to get into the parking lot was over a mile long with a dedicated lane in the street. It never took more than 15 minutes to get through the drive through. Have not been to that one in a while. I go to the one in Castle Rock and the lines and wait time have definitely gotten shorter. Qualifier: I only go there for lunch so cannot speak to the dinner experience.

They are building a new one in Parker, much closer to my Daughter's home. It should open this summer.

In-n-Out needs several restaurants to cover the costs of their local warehouses, so there is that to consider. Also, In-n-Out, like any successful business, does their homework before entering into a market. I am sure they know what to expect with each opening.

It is time I should post the images from the last time I dined at an In-N-Out location. It was the stand in Redondo Beach (although it did not feel like it) at 3801 Ingleside Ave.; just off I-405. It was between days of the American Homebrewers' Assoc.'s National Homebrew Conference in San Diego, and the semi-finals and finals of CONCACAF's Gold Cup 2011 competition in Pasadena. I was out of the abode for this long a period of time; but I had identified a cat-sitter for Mirko, and my dad (still alive) was not going to feed her, but he would let in the cat sitter.
I recall I had found a World-Wide Web site with the 'secret menu' for In-n-out; and had written down the custom order to request. The 1st picture looks good, but the fries were still lousy. From Chicago hot dog stands, I had experience with lousy fries, but these were not even comparable to them. One would think it had figured out how to fry them by now.

They’re also in Texas. I guess you all knew.

I go out to lunch or dinner at In N Out Burger only one time of month, but not all of the time. I having 2 double-double with ketchup and raw onions only and fries, too. I have no problem for me at all.

So looking forward to going back to LA - our first In'n'Out on Hollywood, we have to revisit!

I'm about to propose to the fam that we make it a mission to ear at every In N Out in san diego county between now and Christmas.

Wish me luck!

Too full from my flights and lounges today. In-N-Out at LAX tomorrow morning!!!!

Can't you find any Wimpy Burgers?

He's now receiving US dental care, so he no longer searches for them.

Cracks me up when I sometimes pass by an In-N-Out and see the long car lines, but available parking, whereby you can park, order, get your food, and be back in the car while* people are still waiting in line.
