If you're ever in GA/TN/NC, check out Cook Out and Pal's fast food establishments.

They cost just a little more than national chains, for a much more satisfying meal (still fast food tho).

Things I miss most about Austin (2nd-gen that left, a decade ago): H-E-B Grocery and P'Terry Hamburgers.

Pal's is a regional GOAT. They also have a unique "Sauceburger" with a ketchup-and-relish based sauce that takes me back to my childhood. Highly recommend.

in response to an article about high costs, I'm not sure suggesting a more expensive option serves a purpose...

You pay about 15% more for twice the food (at much higher quality).

From Cook Out, for $11, I can make two meals with two deserts.
