Upon seeing the sign pictured above, both Erica and David exclaimed &#8220;Luther burger!&#8221;, as I had shared this information with them prior to our arrival at In-N-Out<\/p>\n<p>We didn&#8217;t go for <strike>broke<\/strike> stroke and make our own Luther burgers when we stopped at the  <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">Daly City <a href=\"http:\/\/www.in-n-out.com\/\">In-N-Out Burger<\/a><\/span> on the way to SFO Sunday night. However, Erica and I did enjoy our first trip to California&#8217;s favorite fast food joint, as did David, who was already acquainted with In-N-Out. <\/p>\n<p>I ordered a Double Double and fries. Due to my own preferences, I scraped off most of the sauce and skipped the tomato and lettuce, but in retrospect I should left the sauce on, it was tasty. The fries, which are fresh cut, were pretty good, though not on par with McDonald&#8217;s. The meat was superior though and even a little pink inside. We also found the employees to be very polite and efficient. In-N-Out was the polar opposite of <span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">White Castle<\/span> (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yurasko.net\/wfy\/2007\/10\/william-erica-go-to-white-castle.html\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">which we visited this past October<\/span><\/a>). In fact, In-N-Out is probably the best fast food joint that I have visited.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wfyurasko\/2118663592\/\" title=\"2007_1216_2007_1216(046) by wfyurasko, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm3.static.flickr.com\/2339\/2118663592_648eafeb71.jpg?resize=500%2C375\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"2007_1216_2007_1216(046)\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/website_3c1e0e40\/graphics\/technorati.gif\" border=\"0\">  <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/InNOutBurger\" rel=\"tag\">In-N-Out Burger<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/krispyKreme\" rel=\"tag\">Krispy Kreme<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/lutherburger\" rel=\"tag\">Luther burger<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/fastfood\" rel=\"tag\">fast food<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/DalyCity\" rel=\"tag\">Daly City<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.technorati.com\/tag\/California\" rel=\"tag\">California<\/a><\/p>\n<div class=\"blogger-post-footer\">&copy;MMX William F.
