I'd prefer something else too
It was nostalgic and I did it because we had some fun memories from college when we first had those White Castle sliders.
For Vegas, I really miss Bradley Ogdens at Caesars Palace. They were one of the first to have a gourmet burger (and awesome for dinner). Too bad it's no longer there.

Buy 'em by the sack, who likes this stuff??
Last week, White Castle opened their first West Coast location at the Casino Royale Hotel and Casino in Las Vegas. Opening day had long lines and they even had to close early because they ran out of food. We were at the Mirage hotel to join the parties fo...
They were good in the college days.-
I remember a lot of bun and a tiny amount of meat. They were pretty cheap back in the day, look like they cost a lot more now. To many other good choices now like 5 Guys, Shake Shack, Smashburger, in-n-out plus all of the great local places you find in mo...
But everything was great...
But everything tasted great when we were starving college students, right? LOL! Next time I see you remind me to tell you about the All-You-Can-Eat McDonald's and the All-You-Can-Eat KFC during our undergrad years. =O -MW
nostalgic visit
So true about the tiny beef patty. I recall them being cheaper too. I agree with you Jerry, so many other places for a better burger. Regards, ED-209
Can't believe you waited for it...
Last time I had White Castle was in Manhattan: I think I rather have In-N-Out on Sahara or Pink's at Planet Hollywood. Can't believe you waited in line, it made the news about how crazy it got when it first opened in Vegas. Was the line to the bathroom ju...

I remember that place!
Met him at the M.O.W charity event and he made our reservations for us, I miss that place. -MW
Since ....
Harold & Kumar I crave to taste them ;) :) Thank you for report Ed Sincerely Damjan
LOL, that movie is classic
Very funny! you're right I thought of Harold and Kumar movie when I picked up my burger. Of course my road trip was not as exciting :) Regards, ED-209
Tried once, not too crazy. I think a good fast food burger...
place that smells really good is Shake Shak...their beef patty has little crisp/char...yum...I tried that once in NY and was hooked. Hope they have one in West Coast. Five guys' also good, like their peanuts....In-N-Out, ok, I think it is popular because ...
re: Tried
I've never tried Shake Shak, we don't have them here. However their is a Vegas location at the New York-New York hotel. Since ED-209 already reviewed the White Castle, I guess I need to sample the burgers at Shake Shak. Raymond, any recommendations on whi...
Cheese burger with 2 patties....shake is ok, depend on your flavor.
My son and I both tried the Hamburger single patty with cheese...end up not enough and had to get inline for another pair...we did not try their Shakburger with Shaksauce. I usually like to try something without any side sauces first, just to get the pure...
It's midnight here...
and you guys are making me hungry! Thanks for the recommendations, I'll be in Vegas shortly so hopefully I'll report back with pics and a full stomach. :) HAGWE Raymond! -MW
Lol...lesson learnt, don't check Timeout forum at night ...
Looking forward to see juicy patties and eat photos again :)) HAGWE, MW.
It's lunch time...
Looks tasty, now you make me go and get burgers for today's lunch! :) -MW
I would like to try it
I keep hearing good things about Shake Shack, I'll have to try it out next visit to NYC. Regards, ED-209
wow...westward expansion?
didn't know they were opening shop.. I heard this about White Castle on a sports talk radio show..."its good at 2AM after drinking all night to fight morning hangovers..." from your photos and your review..I think they were pretty accurate.. its perfect f...
When I was a kid...
Back in New York, we used to get a dozen and see who could eat the fastest. (pigs were we!) Really liked them. Now I grill my own adult-size burgers at home, in fact, thinking about it, I think that's what we'll have tonight. I remember that across the st...
back in the day
Cool childhood memories. First time I tried them during a road trip in college, we also had a eating contest. Don't remember how many we ate but sure was fun times. Regards, ED-209
Not heard of them.....
Yet..... But I like the sound of the Jalapeño cheese slider :) Hope you are well after your small snack..!! Yours, Andy.
It was rough
Slowly ate them all on the drive home... and I guess it will be a long, long time before we have another White Castle LOL. Regards, ED-209
Ed, I've got to take you to a steakhouse in Palo Alto...
$6 bleu cheese burger with fries or onion rings and $3 beers until 7PM. Add a side and share a dessert and it's still much less than $43 for two persons... It's also in a nice setting in a nice steakhouse in Palo Alto. I'm living it up on the cheap! And a...
ok count me in the next time I'm in the area
That sounds wonderful, and a tasty good deal. Looking forward to trying it out someday soon. Regards, ED-209
