Eh, it's no different than the person who loads up on alcohol, spicy nachos and buffalo wings at the local bar.

Definitely an interesting idea though I'm not sure how successful it's going to be for BK. It might thrive in the SoBe area, but I can't imagine it going (and staying) anywhere else.

The price for beer there seems reasonable, all things considered.

But this is their first time out of the gate. I could see it being a more successful venture if they just did sliders instead of an all out burger.

Actually this is their second American Burger Bar and their fourth or fifth one total.

From the article:

The Whopper Bar concept was introduced in March 2008, and the first bar opened a year later at Universal Orlando Resort in Florida.

If it works, then whatever.

If I'm eating a burger though, I'll go to any number of our fine local establishments which provide them before I'll go fast food.

Then there's the quasi-fast-food option... does anyone else have Johnnies Charcoal Broiler Drive-Through?

Good stuff. Haven't been in years. Maybe I need to remedy that.
