The ATL location is the first in the City of Atlanta and the first in any airport in the country. The Iron Chef even added a signature burger for the airport called the \u201cATL Burger,\u201d so if you\u2019re flying out of ATL on Concourse B, you are really getting a special treat.<\/h5>\n<h5>Let\u2019s talk about the menu. First, you get the option of beef, chicken or turkey so there is a little something for everyone, even a veggie burger for the \u201cveg heads\u201d out there. The menu boasts 11 signature burgers each with the option to \u201cget crunchified\u201d (having your burger served with crispy potato chips on top) free of charge. They have an impressive selection of what they proclaim are the \u201cworld\u2019s best shakes,\u201d and I don\u2019t claim to be the authority on milkshakes, but I can attest that the shakes at BBP are very, very good! When it comes to sides, they have classic fries, sweet potato fries and massive onion rings. I recommend you choose \u201cThe Undecided\u201d options which allow you to choose two of the three to pair with your meal.<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_364.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10917\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_364-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"590\" height=\"787\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_364-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_364-768x1024.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 590px) 100vw, 590px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5>Chef Flay was on hand for the grand opening event and I had the awesome opportunity to chat with him about his decision to start a burger chain and why he chose Hartsfield-Jackson as his first airport location.<\/h5>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_36a.jpeg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-10911\" src=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_36a-225x300.jpeg\" alt=\"\" width=\"522\" height=\"696\" srcset=\"https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_36a-225x300.jpeg 225w, https:\/\/dev.atl.com\/atl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/11\/fullsizeoutput_36a-768x1024.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 522px) 100vw, 522px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h5>\u201cWell, I\u2019m a burger guy and I started Bobby\u2019s Burger Palace about 10 years ago,\u201d said Chef Flay. \u201cWe have close to 20 locations now and I always wanted to open somewhere in Atlanta.
