The Bob's chain quickly spread throughout the LA area. Bob franchised the Big Boy trademark and recipes to other chains throughout the US. The original Big Boy hamburger uses a red pickle relish. Anyone using tartar sauce is violating the santity of the original recipe and should be shot or have his franchise revoked, which ever is more painfull. The Bob's chain was purchased by Marriot some years ago and have been involved in expansion. They have built two Bob's Big Boy restaurants in the Portland area in the last few years. They also purchased a number of Vip's restaurants and are converting them to Big Boy's. This week the local Vip's became a Bob's. As for the the quality, I would say it has definitely taken a down hill slide since Bob ran things. I say keep the Big Boy 'cause I grew up with him. Now lets jump into the roadster and cruise Bob's Van Nuys and Toluca Lake. -- Dave Williams Tektronix, Inc.
