I like Steak N Shake. Personally I think the best hamburger is fat burger. In N Out is good but there's nothing so special about it that's it's better than the rest. It's a burger.

--In Chicago, we've got burger depot down south not too far from the highway

Hmmm... interesting.

Maybe buca started in Cali? I read something like that somewhere.

But i do know of an italian restaurant native to chico. it's just called the italian cottage. there is a sister restaurant in davis called cafe italia. they have a sandwich called "the little italy" and it has everything on it... i mean everything. and can't forget elmer sundaes.

B-Bops.

Drive-in burger joint in Iowa. Reminiscent of 50's diners--they're so good. They also have kickass superthick shakes.

Buca (http://www.bucadibeppo.com) started in Minneapolis and PF Changs I think started in Arizona before going public. There's an Italian place that's kinda fun called C&O trattoria out by santa monica i think that you should check out. They sing and all that jazz.

There's a good deli in Ann Arbor and I can't remember the name. Best in the midwest (that's like being one eyed king in the land of the blind but whatever).

That would be Zingerman's

Also from Ann Arbor.. Dominos, the first was on Washtenaw between Eastern Michigan U and U of Mich. Cottage Inn Pizza is pretty awesome too, also originally from Ann Arbor (but the chain stores in the metro Detroit area are awful)
