A few of us were out in Chicago for the eBay Live Event and while driving back to the hotel, we saw White Castle Burger. I never really knew that White Castle was actually a real burger joint.  Actually, I thought it was something made from the movie Harold and Kumar Goes to White Castle. So naturally, my expectations were high because the movie hyped up the burgers.

Harold and Kumar Castle Burger

We told the taxi cab and pulled over and ordered combo # 3, which included 10 burgers, 2 drinks, and 2 fries. I guess it sounded extra good cuz we were hungry drunks. Anyways, the order came to about $16 because we order an extra order of onion rings.

Dan’s Review

These burgers tasted horrible; the nastiest burger I’ve tasted in my life. I love onions on my burger, but the onions they had made the burger smell like ass. The meat was as thin as a quarter. The only thing that was descent about this meal, even for a drunk guy, was the onion rings. My opinion: STAY AWAY FROM THIS PLACE.

Sam’s Review

The burger was not to my expectations. I felt that I ate nothing but the buns and onions. Like Dan said, the meat was litterally so small to see or taste. The only thing I enjoyed out of that meal was the fries. Still, this was a good experiece out here in Chicago, since we do not have this restaurant here in Southern California.

Martin’s Review

I’ve seen the first Harold and Kumar movie at the movie theater. After watching the movie, it made me crave for some White Castle Burgers. In the last scene, when they were gulping down the burgers, it look so good. I tried the White Castle Burgers before from supermarkets near my house that sells it frozen section.  All you had to do was just put it in the microwave. It didn’t taste too good. When the guys and I saw an actual White Castle restaurant we had to give it a try.

I’m not much of a picky burger eater… and expecially when your a little drunk. The burgers were ok. Something little different from the onions but with some ketchup, it was eatable. Fries were made out powered potatoes which was good. Onion rings were good as well, the outside crust had a sweet flavor to it. So would I try it again? I would only if I’m drunk. :)

Here is some information on how to convert your Honda Civic Dx Rear drums to Rear Discs.

 

02-03 Civic Si

 

Take the rear spindle (with bearing and hub) from any 88-00 Civic with rear discs, or 94-01 Integra and swap them onto the Civic DX. Use 02-03 Civic Si (EP3) caliper bracket mounts, 02-03 Civic Si EP3 brake pads, and 02-03 Civic Si EP3 rotors. To use RSX or EP3 Calipers on a Civic/Integra with Civic/Integra e-brake cables, use the e-brake attachment lever swapped on from any 7CLP13S caliper body, and also use the L-bracket that the e-brake cable goes through from a 7CLP13S caliper. Use the 99-00 Civic Si e-brake cables.
