American burger and bbq chain Carls Jr. is set to open shop in Western Sydney following a successful soft launch in Victoria, Queensland, South Australia and the Central Coast.
These burgers are not for the faint-hearted. Don’t go in expecting a dainty little cloudy affair one would expect from a McDonald’s Filet-O-Fish. This is the real McCoy of American burgers. The kind of juicy, succulent, monolithic fare that you’d find on a mood board for Wall-E.
It’s the kind of food you dreamt of eating when you were a kid, imagining your first-ever trip to your first-ever American diner. Onion rings, chicken nuggets cut into silly little shapes, big bulging patties of beef, ice-cream sundaes — all the wondrous foods we allowed our imagination to gorge on before it was poisoned by the dread concept of “wellness.”
I reckon we all pledge to abandon wellness. If this year has illuminated anything, it’s that life is far too short to waste your life in a pilates class. I will forever regret pissing away the golden years of my twenties bailing on gorging on fine foods with friends in favour for a gym class I didn’t want to go to.
The Western Sydney edition of Carl’s Jr is set to open at the Greenway Centre in Wetherill Park, an official date for when we can expect the joint to open is yet to be announced.
This is just the first instalment of Carl’s Jr scheme to expand across the country. It looks like the burger fiends are planning on opening 100 stores across the country in the next decade.
