Burger Review: Fuddruckers
I was planning on having a burger at Applebee’s today when in the last minute plans changed and I ended up at Fuddruckers. Thats a good thing of course since Fuddruckers is one of my favorite burger places in Kuwait and they actually have my favorite burger, the Triple Cheeseburger. When I first decided on this burger challenge I had a winner already figured out in my head, it was going to be Fuddruckers. Things have changed though.
As I said my favorite burger is the Triple Cheeseburger so thats what I went ahead and ordered. At Fudd’s you can choose the thickness of your patty, I went with the half pounder cooked medium well. I’ve tried all the thicknesses and found the half pounder to be the perfect size for their bun. More places need to offer different thickness patties, especially the burger joints. Anyway the burger arrived open bun without any garnish, you then have to go up to the garnish bar and manually put whatever you want on your burger. I usually put just ketchup on my burger and hot melted cheddar cheese on the potato wedges which is what I did.
I think Fuddruckers might have the best classical burger and even though I had figured before this challenge that it would score the highest, I don’t think thats going to happen. I don’t think its exciting enough, I love it, I think its my favorite burger and although this doesn’t make sense I don’t think its THE best burger. I prefer the Black Widow for example and I also really like the Little Oven burger, two burgers which I hadn’t tried before this challenge. I also have a whole list of burgers I still need to try and I am expecting some really great ones. I really like the Fuddruckers burger bun and I think the beef patty is the perfect thickness although its pretty fatty. The size of the burger is also huge which is why it easily fills me. All this wasn’t enough to earn it the highest score. I am being super tough with these burger reviews so thats why I’m giving it a 3.5 out of 5.
I still have the following burgers I need to try, am I missing anything?
Gaucho Grill, Sheraton, Applebees, Chilis, Ruby Tuesday, Burger Hub, Burger Bar, Burger Boutique, Munch, GBK and Hashi.
Fuddruckers is located on the Gulf Road, their telephone number is 2460110
The cost of the 1/2lb Triple Cheese Burger is KD2.950

Burger Boutique! One of my personal favourites!
Oh, and you should consider Nino too.. I like their Routini (mini burgers), still order them, although they did honestly taste better a couple months back..

you missed the rib eye burger or madison at burger boutique.
4. Safi | March 20th, 2008 at 2:39 am
McD’s.
5. Co0oLY | March 20th, 2008 at 3:42 am
Try Black And White ( in Qurtbah Super Market )
Jalapenos Burger it is the best Burger ever (For me)
6. ZzZz | March 20th, 2008 at 8:23 am
arraya mall, burger boutique

Oh Mark, please don’t do this for US! All those burgers – are you doing a before and after cholesterol check?
8. Monotheist | March 20th, 2008 at 9:34 am
Actually, McD’s isn’t a bad suggestion. I think you should try thier double cheesburger WITH egg. Very tender, clean, tidy, and easy to eat. I call it the meat cupcake.
And on that note, I leave you now as I head to in-n-out.

i was also going to say black and white…. the best place for a one-star review… but who knows with your taste!!
oh and there is a burger place outside near marina mall. i’ve never tried it and never seen anyone there either… so maybe u can be our guinea pig and try it out for us… its at the parking lot near the one.
10. Mark | March 20th, 2008 at 11:18 am
Yeah forgot about Burger Boutique, just added it. So it Black and White worth a visit or not? If it is then I also have to add cheeeburger
11. Co0oLY | March 20th, 2008 at 12:26 pm
Mark : Yeah and you must try the Jalapenos Burger it is the best burger there.

16. Spooner | March 20th, 2008 at 3:08 pm
Dooble Qlasiic Siir ! you should’ve reviewed that. Steve leb is right, you should take a break.
17. Jacqui | March 20th, 2008 at 3:44 pm
I was trying to understand why it was given a 3.5 but I didn’t find that written anywhere.
18. pearls | March 20th, 2008 at 4:07 pm
I tried their lemon chicken with black pepper it’s not that great, wayid zafraa
19. Movies&Music News Blog | March 20th, 2008 at 5:37 pm

20. Mark | March 20th, 2008 at 5:38 pm
I would have given it a 4 had i not had the black widow
21. Angelo | March 20th, 2008 at 8:07 pm
“I would have given it a 4 had i not had the black widow”
Man, I better try that Black Widow of yours. And I see you added Ruby Tuesday, that is so nice, thanks. Remember only try the Triple Prime, if they don’t have it then you don’t need to try anything else….and I hope I’m not hyping the burger way too much.
22. Safi | March 20th, 2008 at 8:40 pm
Burger ‘King’ should be a place to visit too! Although the Whopper isn’t that great compared to the US’s.
23. kwt23 | March 21st, 2008 at 12:27 am
i suggest u dont waste ur time and try GBK cuz it wont score more than 0.5/5
24. Shell7 | March 21st, 2008 at 1:17 am
hey mark…this is my 1st comment here..I think ur Best Burger search is fab!! I love the Colossal Burger down at Ruby Tuesdays and would like to knw how u wud rate it…I also knw that price is not a factor here but for 2.850 I think its a pretty good deal out there
25. souliman | March 21st, 2008 at 9:40 am
black pearl is just amazing!!! and no need for black and white,,, trust me… oh and a friend of mine told me bout this great burger at nino… i think its about 7 to 8 kd.. hes like it was surprizingly good.. (its not the mini burgers…)
26. xeonali | March 21st, 2008 at 1:11 pm
Yesterday I tried Gaucho Burger .. Rip-eye .. To be frank I couldn’t finish half of it ! you guys over rated it ! Triple prime from Ruby Tuesdays is much much better .. now I think it will get higher scores than I expected ..

Just a quick note, I live in Amman Jordan,
Fuddruckers re-opened in Amman last year, with supposedly better management and a better location, after it closed around 8 years ago.
We went there to try it several times, everything was great, until one day I recommended it to my parents and sister who were seriously craving burgers. After dining there my sister and my mom suffered from a very serious food poisoning which kept them in bed for three days.
A week later the same happened to my cousin after eating at Fuddruckers!!!!
