Posted January 2, 2019 Been back to mom's house in the St Louis, Mo area. Just returned to her house from a run to White Castle with bag full of.......sliders and nails. Holy Molly, Still just as good as when I was in High School and college. Someday, maybe, Colorado will have a White Castle. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't speak to MO, but about a year ago, stopped in at the White Castle in Vegas, in Casino Royale. And sliders are no longer a quarter for a cheeseburger. Two double cheeseburgers, fries, Coke, was $9.00. On the upside, that location has beer. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2019 Krystals are about the same. As I recall there was a product infringement suit, settled when one of the two firms agreed to not include pickles as part of the standard order. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2019 Love White Castle!! Went to one in Ohio about 5 yrs ago. A Slider back then was about a $1.25 if I remember correctly. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) For those who have been in Denver a “few” years, you will remember the old Mickey Manor. Mickey Manor made burgers similar to White Castle. My father used to love going to Mickey Manor. I’ve had Mickey Manor, White Castle and Krystal. For my money, Mickey Manor was the best of the 3. Krystal is a far second and I won’t eat at White Castle again. Just can’t stand them. But that’s my opinion and I know I’m in the minority here.

Posted January 2, 2019 To be honest it is as much about the memories and friends that were with me when we would buy a bag of 10 for dollar. Still have that unique taste and style though. $1.25 +$1.00 for nails. This franchise has REAL malts. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You might rethink that. “The Ingram family's steadfast refusal to franchise or take on debt throughout the company's existence has kept the chain relatively small, with a more discontinuous geography than its principal competitors.” {Wikipedia} 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 2, 2019 Bring on In-N-Out Burger to Denver. I heard that maybe in 2020 they will finally have a presence in Colorado. Far superior to McDonalds. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 2, 2019 Sliders from White Castle brings back some fond teenage memories. There was one on the south side of Chicago that was open 24 hours a day. What a treat to get a dozen sliders in the middle of the night. WOW !! Thanks for bringing back some fond memories. 11 hours ago, oldertruckguy-9225 said: Been back to mom's house in the St Louis, Mo area.

Then I discovered Shake Shak in Chicago and I’m in love with their buttermilk chicken sandwich 🤤 I heard there’s some in Colorado 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 3, 2019 (edited) I remember in college guys talking about eating 2 dozen at a time. I never knew what they looked like and couldn't figure how you could eat that many at one time. When they came to Kansas City, I finally understood. Never got used to their taste. Fries and malts were good. They fizzled here and left town. One quality burger is better than 12 sliders in my opinion. Glad you enjoyed your visit and relived a happy memory or two.

Far superior to McDonalds. The first In-N-Out to open will have a longer line than when Krispy Kreme opened in Park Meadows. I was in that mile-long line for doughnuts, and just might be in the line for an Animal Style Double-Double. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 4, 2019 Krystal was the place in Macon GA where I went TV to college. It was the ONLYplace open pas t 9 pm. In addition to sliders it served eggs after midnight. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted January 5, 2019 When I mentioned In-N-Out coming to Colorado, I was told that it will be in COS. Figures...that's where Taco Bueno opened and they haven't expanded to Denver. I won't sit in an hour (or longer) line for an In-N-Out fix. I'll wait for the novelty to die out...just like Krispy Kreme. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted January 5, 2019 Re: In-N-Out: if I remember the news stories, the Rockies warehouse will be in COS, as will be the first franchise. But they have plans for Denver shortly after that (seem to recall at least two to start: South and somewhere more north). They did have a popup restaurant a while back, so, Denver is not out of the plans. That said, not wild about them. Ok burger, fries are good since they are fresh from the fryer. CA burgers, more of a fan of Habit Burger. Charbroiled, same quality as InOut, have a condiment bar where you can add jalapenos and other peppers to the burger. InOut has late hours, so, can get a better than the big guys burger late. 0 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
