Fuddruckers

We figured we could incorporate the quest to our vacation to Oregon. My parents asked us where we wanted to eat for the lunch after the wedding and we subtly suggested Fuddruckers so we could try their Oreo shake. I had only been a couple of times growing up, We only went there for special occasions and stuff, and what's more special than my brothers wedding and Christmas!! 


Fuddruckers has always boasted "The World's Greatest Hamburgers" and while that might not be true (they do have good burgers though) I like that they have lots of different kinds of burgers (IE: ostrich burgers, buffalo burgers) even through I usually just stick with the standard cheeseburger. I also like their "toppings bar" where you just add however many pickles, tomatoes or whatever you want to your burger. They also have a bunch of condiment despensors where you can put on as much ketchup, barbeque sauce or honey mustard you want on your burger and fries. 


But we all know the real reason why you're reading this. To find out how their Oreo shake was! We were pretty exited because not only were they supposed to have "the wold's best hamburgers" but they also advertised "the worlds best shakes"! We had to find out it it was true!

The price was decent for what you got. It was pretty big and came with the extra shake in a metal cup! I don't recommend trying to finish it yourself, but with company it's just right! We were kinda surprised too because the food was kinda on the pricy side... It ended up with a 3 out of 5.

The presentation was pretty great. A 5 for the whipped cream and literal cherry on top. Naomi let me eat it and it was great! They had a pretty fancy glass too!

Taste was pretty good too. It was mixed pretty well and had plenty of flavor. it got a 4.

Texture was less than satisfactory earning it a 2.5. It was definitely made to be drunk. With the straw it was pretty obvious, but I would've liked a few more chunks.




All together it wasn't amazing and "the world's best shake" but it'd recommend it.




The totals came out to be:







Presentation - 5
Price - 3
Taste - 4
Texture - 3.625

Leatherby's

I've only been to Leatherby's once or twice. I think it was in college to make a late night ice cream run. It was good, kinda pricy, but good. We were looking up places with shakes and Leatherby's came up and I thought to myself "Self, I bet they have an Oreo milkshakes." And, they did!

Like the rest of the menu the Oreo shake wasn't cheap. But, it was huge!! I'm glad me and my wife
decided to split it because I don't know if we could've finished it on our own with the food. Because the amount seemed to put it in an ... okay ... standing with value, price ended up being 2 out of 5. Just make sure you understand what you're ordering. It may be a lot, but sometime that's just right!

The presentation was pretty nice. It had a fancy glass so that's always a plus. But, I think there's definitely some room for improvement with it's lake of whipped cream, cherry-on-top or Oreo crumbs ...
Just sayin' ... anyways it scored a 3 for presentation.

Taste also ended up with a 3 out of 5. It was pretty Oreo-y
but still tasted somewhat of its base of vanilla ice-cream.

Texture was pretty low with a 1.5. It was definitely made to sip.
It was well blended, but so well blended there wasn't really any
indication with the texture that you were eating an Oreo shake.

To summerize it was an alright shake not amazing ... but i mean, it's an Oreo shake ...

Presentation - 3
Price - 2
Taste - 3
Texture - 1.5
Overall - 2.375
