People over 40 who were Midwestern or adjacent know that this is an interpretation/knockoff of a Frisco Burger. Flat top/bottom and 1000 island-ish sauce. Hence the name, I guess.
Weirdly makes me nostalgic for old-school Perkins, or a Hardee’s drive-thru.

there's a burger chain in toronto that sells "california style" burgers, which means that the buns are inverted. not a thing in california. im losing my mind at how stupid this fuckin burger looks. i can't believe they sell this as a regional specialty.
