Chain Restaurant Burgers
The Blue Ribbon Burger @ Red Robin swap the onion bun for sesame and hold the lettuce. Too good.

Anne Burrell's new show, will you watch it?
I agree with the bizarre 'testing' times that FN seems to have. I get up early on Saturday mornings to watch Nigella and Jamie Oliver... I often wonder why they do that. I'd like to watch Anne Burrell's show but this time couldn't be worse!
The Food at Ikea: Cheap and Good
The actual $2.50 combo here in Orlando is 2 hot dogs, chips and a drink. So, share with your kid or husband and you've got a screamin deal! :)

One more try and I give up...doesn't seem to work to post
Just moved to Orlando from Denver and am sorely missing my day in and day out favorites.
Illegal Pete's (www.illegalpetes.com) in the home city of Chipotle I would rather have a burrito at Illegal Pete's.
Parisi (www.parisidenver.com) I have a friend from Rome who is notoriously picky about his Italian and he loves it. It is a neighborhood restaurant. Sit upstairs for some great eats.
Bang (www.bangdenver.com) In a great old neighborhood and has the kitchen streetside. Must try to toasted sweet potato bread and butter.

Just moved from Denver and cannot wait to go home for the following, none too expensive just good (or great!) food...
Illegal Petes (Burritos)
http://www.illegalpetes.com/ (while Denver is the original home of Chipotle Illegal Pete's is my vote hands down.)
Parisi (Italian for locals, inexpensive and fabulous - we eat upstairs)
http://www.parisidenver.com/
Bang
http://www.bangdenver.com/ (must have the toasted sweet potato bread)

I don't know for sure but you could try Fox & Obel
It would be worth a shot.

Just a note that the Denver option is really in Scottsdale. Here is an option for Denver though. (Actually Highlands Ranch, a southern suburb )

@lemons, I'm slow seeing this thread again but by Central US, I mean the states that generally sit in the center of the country if you look at a map and are in the central time zone, including Oklahoma, Kansas, Missouri, and Texas. Depending on who you ask, Arkansas, which has Braum's locations, is sometimes lumped in with the Southeast.
Braum's has been in the first half of Oklahoma for 30+ years (Tulsa area), if you're driving north to south or east to west.

Hi bessfour, I logged on to the Counter Burger website, and this looks like a winner. I live on the East Coast also, and hope one will be coming to the Central Fla area. If no one replies to your post, please give an update, thanks!

Don't see any mention of Counter Burger. We have one opening up in West Hartford and I understand it's the first on the East Coast. There was quite a buzz about this a few months ago...anyone eaten there?
Chain Restaurant Burgers
Braum's isn't so much the Central US (I assume you mean like the Midwest?) as it is towards the south. When we drive from St. Louis to Dallas, one of our markers is how far north Braum's has moved. I believe theres now one in Springfield, MO, but until last year we didn't find them until the second half of Oklahoma.
And I vote for Steak 'n' Shake. Five Guys is good when it's good but a little inconsistent.

Houston's is by far the best chain restaurant burger around. The beef is excellent quality, and its always cooked perfectly
Chain Restaurant Burgers
Ruby Tuesday's alpine swiss burger is really tasty, and I hate to admit it, but also fast-food chain, Dairy Queen's mushroom swiss grillburger, although it is very messy.
Chain Restaurant Burgers
Best sit-down chain burger is at Houston's (if you live near one)...
Best fast-food chain burger is at In-N-Out (again, if you live near one)...

Flamers' - the best chain burger I've tasted ever.
