I suppose it could be pricey but that again depends on quite a few things. For arguments sake a Burger at Emeril's is from $12-14 and here in the N.Y area any burger worth eating is at least $8
I suppose what I look at is to hopefully get what I pay for.
Yes, I suppose you are right about it not being fast food since the food is cooked to order. I guess that sort of comes from force of habit.
I guess I will re catagorize it under my heading of McDonald's with atmosphere

Not sure what part of the world you are from but maybe you can recommend something better if you are from this area or perhaps a chain that I might find locally.
Recently I have been on a burger kick.
From what I have read, the best.....the absolute best burger to be had is found in a restaurant in Brooklyn called Peter Lugers have yet to get there
