Ever
since the first Fatburger opened in Los Angeles 70 years ago, the chain
has been known for its delicious, grilled-to-perfection and cooked to order
burgers. Founder Lovie Yancey believed that a big burger with everything
on it is a meal in itself; at Fatburger “everything” is not just the usual
roster of toppings. Burgers can be customized with everything from bacon
and eggs to chili and onion rings. In addition to its famous burgers, the
Fatburger menu also includes Fat and Skinny Fries, sweet potato fries,
scratch-made onion rings, Impossible™ Burgers, turkeyburgers, hand-breaded
crispy chicken sandwiches, and hand-scooped milkshakes made from 100% real
ice cream.
From
the Buffalo’s Express menu, patrons can choose bone-in or boneless wings
accompanied by a range of original sauces including Scorchin,’ Carolina
Fire BBQ, Asian Sesame, Coconut Jerk, Honey Garlic, and Sweet Bourbon BBQ.
All of Buffalo’s Express’ wings are accompanied by celery, carrots, and
blue cheese, ranch or honey mustard dressing.
The
Wichita Fatburger and Buffalo’s Express is located at 2450 N. Greenwich
Road, Wichita, KS 67226 and is open Sunday through Thursday, 11 a.m. to
9 p.m., and Friday through Saturday, 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
