This update addresses my concerns about the bun at Five Guys.
Today I had another cheeseburger, but I didn't order fries. I just wasn't that hungry. Turns out, this decision largely solved the bun problem.
Last time, I ate a bunch of fries first, because I like to judge them at their hottest. But I kept on eating, and didn't think about what was happening to the foil-wrapped burger. Well, duh, it was getting soggy.
This time I tore straight into the burger and the bun was much better. Not good, but it didn't detract. I found myself thinking this is a fair substitute for Fatburger.
