If only *my* father's office was this cool

We all have that person we call or email when we need a food recommendation. But what happens when you're the food person and you need a recommendation? Well, you turn to Jenny, who should have a food blog but doesn't. But she reads this blog. So that makes her cool but doesn't change the fact that she doesn't have a blog. Point being, she's a foodie's foodie.

When Jenny recommends a place you don't walk, you run over to it. So, when we were casually talking about the new Father's Office, she mentioned that the burger at the Culver City location is just as good as the Brentwood location. My ears perked up. Now, I haven't had the burger in Brentwood but this intrigued me.

Since it was Monday and the start of Rosh Hashanah, I thought Steve & I would have a good shot at a table at the Culver location. Although I was right, I was incredibly surprised at the number of people there. It was crowded, not in a can't-move sort of way but more of a what-are-all-of-you-doing-here-isn't-it-a-holiday-and-isn't-the-country-in-an-economic-downturn sort of way. But, we got our table and easily placed our order and we were happy.

Ok, I'll warn you, the burger ain't cheap. This isn't some cheesy bar burger. This is good stuff. And you taste it. OMG. I'm bringing everyone who digs burgers here. I'm taking all of my meat eaters here and not at the same time. I would totally come back again & again. When I say I don't eat fast food burgers because its a waste of my calories, this is what I'm talking about. People, don't diet. Give up crap, eat healthy as a general rule and then when faced with a great meal, enjoy it.

So yeah, go to Father's Office during non-peak hours (you couldn't pay me to go when it should be crowded) and order a burger. It'll make you a better person.

I've been to the Santa Monica location and it's ALWAYS crowded. The burgers are amazing.

I haven't been to the closer Culver City place yet. I can't seem to find an "off" hour for that place! Good idea going on Rosh Hashonah. I may just have to break all my religious principals and go on the Day of Atonement...fasting day! Hah!
