At least the one here in Corvallis (literally next door to my office) has good shakes. Burgers are meh, fries are OK, but pretty basic.
Food is amazing and pretty diverse in China. There is lots of organ meat, especially in the sichuan style hotpots. I really like the cow stomach lining in the spicy hotpot. Almost no food at a Chinese restaurant is normal Chinese food. It is almost always a variation of Southern China Cantonese style food. There are probably 100-150 restaurants within 500 meters of my house, and more than I could dream of eating within 3km. Its pretty nice how cheap food is and diverse here, plus it can be delivered for super cheap in 15 min. We have 5 different Chinese hotpot (almost every region has a very different hotpot style) right below us that are always great my favorite does lamp spine hotpot with really tender meat and the spinal cord is so good. There is also a couple of the pick your food that is on a skewer and through it in the pot and they count the sticks at the end, its cheap and pretty fast. Plenty of hearts, kidneys, and other random stuff. There are a bunch of Chinese BBQ places, I like one that is super spicy. Near here the stranger ones I like are the Donkey meat store, they make a really good sandwich for about 50 cents. There is a Pig intestine Beijing specialty store that is really good. Living in Beijing is nice that I can get food from everywhere in China. Not all places are like that, usually you can get the local food and sichuan food. Maybe a few others like Beijing style hotpot. Plus Beijing I can get lots of different foreign food that is pretty limited outside KFC or pizza hut places or knockoffs. The Durian pizza is very popular here, I am not a fan of that. I have been eating a lot of North Korean food lately.
Although I will say this. My daughter is a student at Washington State and she works at Jimmy John's doing delivery. She makes more on tips than her paycheck many days, nearly doubling her regular wage some weeks. She makes $14 per hour for delivery driving and one week she made over $500 in tips alone. One guy messed up on his sandwich order and asked her to hang on while he placed another order. He knew it was his mistake, they had ordered like 6 sandwiches. Anyway she ran back and picked up the new order, took them back and the guy gave her 3 of the other sandwiches that had been messed up, easy free lunches for her so she was excited even though she eats Jimmy John's food every day, and then he gave her a $50 bill for making the run back so quickly. She has been very happy about that part, and we sure do appreciate it as well. It is different from tipping inside at an In N Out burger or something, as delivery is a separate service that involves at least some level of liability for the drivers, so a tip is not that strange for delivery I suppose.
My brother in law tipped my off (my puns are always intentional) to something I was completely unaware of. He said he always asks at non-full service places if the employees get the tips and very often the answer is no. If they do get the tips he leaves a tip but if not he doesn't.
Interesting. I’ll have to ask. Thanks.

Jared Y.'s review of Tacos Lopez
A new Taco Place opens in West Jordan and I know I need to check it out…
I linked my yelp review in my post (I was their second yelp review from Jan 2020), but short story, I think they are the best taco place in the state! I hadn't had a vampiro before I went there but that is what I get everytime now.
