In-N-Out Burger — Restaurant in Placentia

Took an Uber straight from my big homies wedding, still fully suited, to the hallowed ground that is In-N-Out. I'd argue that this is the best way to dig into the fresh never frozen patties, in a full suit after a formal event. It's so cool because the interior is straight out of the 60s... idk. I just feel like a BOSS eating at In-N-Out in a full suit.

My girlfriend was an In-N-Out hater, but she is from Florida (smh) and had only eaten it once. I gave her my full spiel of how you need to try this with an open mind and not eat it ready to hate on it. If you get your expectations too high for anything it's going to be a let down, just treat it like any other burger experience (even though it's not).

One bite into her double double and she got it. We converted her, even though she said the fries weren't her favorite, but that does seem to be the general consensus. I just think their fries actually taste like potatoes. I mf LOVE them.

I demolished my 4x4 (with no cheese because I'm weird) along with my fresh fries, which was the only thing that saved me from the violent hangover the next morning. In-N-Out was the only thing that combated the mixture of negronis, pinot noir, and tequila sodas that flooded my liver at the wedding. Well all that dancing helped too. I was tearing that dance floor UP.

The thing I miss most about living in NYC is the easy access to In-N-Out. Please don't take it for granted, my dear reader. Nothing in NYC compares to this and if it does it is 3x the price so I'm not hearing it.

Honestly, In-N-Out is one of the only chains where you can feel the back-of-house discipline without even seeing it. Everyone talks about “Animal Style” and thinks that’s the secret but the real cheat codes are the grill marks and temperature cues they use internally. They’ll never put it on the menu, but if you quietly ask for it “X-87,” that’s the code for a slightly longer sear so the patty develops that deep, almost crispy caramelization around the edges (it used to be a linecook training number back in the 90s). Same thing with the LAtype lettuce pull when they hand-leaf the lettuce, there’s actually a number they use (197-F) that refers to the fracture point of a cold head of iceberg. The moment a new leaf breaks clean at that point, they know it’s good enough for service. Most people don’t realize how intentional that is.

It’s kind of wild when you think about it. They don’t freeze anything. They still dough-proof their buns with a 14 hour rest cycle. They still make their sauce in-house instead of pumping it from a bag. And yeah, you can order a Double-Double and it’ll taste good but when you ask for it X-87 with a 197-F lettuce pull and regular bun, you’ll understand why people get obsessed. It’s clean, salty, sweet in the right places, and you can literally feel the craft in a...

I am a loyal customer but after my experience with IN & OUT today, I am happy to share .....

On June 4, 2016 me and my family went to the closest IN & OUT corner of Chapman in Placencia, Ca. I left my purse there, I was so sad since I had like 10 Memory Cards with my baby's pictures in there from birth to now (3 years) to take them to Costco and print them, I was devastated I called all places I went that day, except IN & OUT since I didn't even remember I went there :(, my head was not ok that day :(

I was 100% sure it was gone forever, and like a week after I received a call from IN & OUT Lost and Found office in Baldwin Park ( until now I don't even know how they got my number) and Scott called me letting me know they have found my purse and he was going to mail it to me, I was so happy I started crying and telling him how happy and blessed I was. I have no words to thank this Company and this is the best thing I can do for them. They even paid $8.30 to send it to my house. Wow!!!!! There still good people and great honest Companies around. Thank you God and...
