今日はCajun Truckの日のはずだったけれど、予定外の場所に行ってしまったんでSt John'sへ。そこで数人が"Five Guys Burgers"というファストフードチェーンについて語ってるんでなにかと思ったら、最近行われたサーベイで、Five Guys BurgersのバーガーがIn-n-Outよりも上位に来るという結果が出た様子。
Milkshakes and Burgers and Fries, Oh my: Whether being served from a drive-thru window or a server on roller skates, burgers, fries and shakes remain the most timeless fast food menu items. This year, Virginia-based burger chain Five Guys has earned bragging rights in the hotly-contested Best Burger category, edging out regional and mega-chain competitors alike. However, no chain has been able to dethrone McDonald's which wins in the category of Best French Fries for the third straight survey. In the category of Best Milkshakes, Dairy Queen has stepped into the spotlight taking home this year’s prize. The top five rankings in all of these categories are as follows:

もともと東海岸ベースの"Five Guys"、最近は西にも進出してきたらしい。これは今度試してみなければ。ただまだベイエリア近辺だとサンノゼに１軒、フリーモントに１軒あるのみ。
でもこのサーベイ、ベストフライドポテトにマクドナルドが選ばれている辺り、なんか信憑性にかけるかも。アメリカ人はあれをうまいと思うのか。。。In-n-Outの方が百倍旨いけどなぁ。
