"I'm just in love with white generic squishy buns"

Those look quintessential af

I grew up in Garwood, New Jersey, just a few short miles from White Rose. I can vouch, White Rose's burgess, fries and milkshakes are simply amazing! There's another similar burger joint in Clark, NJ where I went to high school that's amazing as well. Both White Rose and White Diamond are worth the trip!

The comments section on all of nicks episodes crack me up 😂

Ohh, I was wondering if Nick was going to stop by this Jersey establishment, it's a Jersey classic. Thank you for the video!

When the guy said "we could do that tomorrow" you could see his eyes screaming "help me"

WHITE ROSE IS SO GOOD. There are only 3 (I think) and there was one a few minutes away from the county college I started at. I ate there WAY too much. And it's not just their burgers, everything is freaking great. Now I gotta go back to White Rose soon.

I love ❤️ these primal way of cooking transcending burger 🍔

old = good, new = bad meat = good, veggies = bad ok i get it

PROTOTYPICALY QUINTESSENTIAL

Prototypical, quintessential, perhaps the platonic ideal and definitely profound with some roasty maillard notes. Goddammit it's a bloody burger, Nick.

QUINTESSENTIAL HUMAN PROFOUNDLY DEEP LEVEL

In this era of luxury or gourmet superthick burgers with cheeses and toppings you can't pronounce (which I'm not knocking because I like them too), it is refreshing to see good old fashioned simple burgers still being made.

local classic. huge fan!

I used to eat there back around 1995 and became instantly addicted!!! Sliders and onion rings were the best after band practice.

This place is great. One of the best burgers you can get....and damn they are fast.

this guy from the UK lived in America for so long his accent got all mixed up and now he just sounds like an American with a speech impediment.

This is great! I want to go here next time I’m in nj. Seems like a chill guy.

Human profoundly deep level.

I remember this place. Been to Linden so many times and used to frequent a diner in Linden, but don't remember ever eating at this place.

i bet he gets commision from Thesaurus

Is it the platonic burger though? Did it have enough maillard reaction?

I've been here the burgers are good and they make their food really fast. This is the fastest food restaurant I ever been in in my life. Literally right after me and my friends finish placing the order, the burgers were ready.

Grew up eating this. I love this but I've been to the one in Roselle a kajillion times but I have been to the one in Linden a handful of times for sure.

lmao guys keep it up with the nick memes

platonic

Going back to keeping it simple. Funny how we go on cycles, it started from this and now we are going back to it.

"speaks to me on a human profound level" - Nick "No longer skinhead" Solares 2k17.

White Manna in Hackensack is hands down the best!

love him & his BROAD vocabulary😩😍

"This is the prototypical quintessential best slider out there" = "I don't know what these words mean but I think they make me sound smart so I keep saying them"

All right... I'm a veteran of this location since '68, my Dad worked on Sherman Street. The original was indeed smashed, but that's where the true origin veers. The place was staffed by crew-cut-wearin' veterans from the South, as was White Diamond. There was no "need to feed" philosophy because the only industrial zone was E. Elizabeth Ave. and Penn which fronted the railroad, the rest of the area on that side of the tracks is residential. Onions were standard, the choices being raw if you asked or none(?!?). Vegetables (lettuce & tomato) and mayo were extra money and made it a California Burger. We never even heard of anyone putting mustard on a burger. (Interestingly, they didn't yet serve grits.) Simply, it was a great burger joint and I'm damned glad it remains so. But, Kenny's Luncheonette in Elizabeth was better: Ken served burgers on genuine Jewish hard rolls from Village Bakery in Linden. He'd steam the split roll over the meat, lest the flavor of the vapors be lost... Sheer gastronomic bliss for gormandizers of fine peasant food.

Didn't know this place was still open, have to make the trip.

That comment about retiring and buying the place came off as a bit rude lol. I'm sure he didn't mean for it to, but you could tell in the guy's face too: "We could do that tomorrow..."

in fort wayne, we have Powers hamburgers. Been open since 1940, my son and i go there twice a month.

I wish we had a restaurant like this in my city.

I feel simplicity is becoming a new food trend.

love those squishy buns

Nice job Nick.

Those look almost perfect.

I am driving the five hours to get this food! awesome video!

I almost thought his last rant was going into sort of a joke - like he was finally self-aware of the hipster feedback, and that there was a catch at the end....but there wasn't, it's real

2:42 "I'm just in love with generic white squishy buns"

it's nice to know that a guy who owns a leica camera and eats at the finest restaurants can still enjoy a simple dish and a coke.

These videos are 'quintessential' to eaters success

he should stay on the show.he knows his work well and describes the taste better than any of the presenters.all of you will miss him when he's gone.

thats not white rose diner (which is in linden, about 5 mins from there), thats white rose system in roselle

there are still a lot of places like this where I am

This is the quintessential platonic ideal of an egalitarian working class food, profound and substantial due to the concussive maillard reaction turning it into the darkest mahogany hence it being quite apt, yet lacking the minerally and tangy flavour that hits you once you enter the dry age room or taste the spinalis dorsi of the smith and wollensky prime rib or joe juniors cheeseburger from which you detect a smell of blue cheese like that of peter lugers fossil like steaks. Muchas gracias

I also love white squishy buns.

I live in Linden and work less than 5 minutes from White Rose :O

I'm as local as I can be (in Highland Park) while living in Florida.

My man, you have got to head my way - Stanley's Burgers in Central Falls, RI, you will not be sorry.

Sooooo upset that Eater was in Jersey and I didn't know. I definitely need the Eater itinerary!

Now I want to make a burger

Are they platonic tho ?

White Rose is the best Rose, amirite Nick?!

Profound

looks good :)

So you get the maillard flavours, but is it the platonic ideal?

White squishy buns are quite nice, Nick.

Taste of history is all in your hat nick

When do they salt it?

Where Cani find this place? 😎

My home town! Saw this and thought no way he dosnt mean Jersey

Let's Go State!

The platonic profound comment section brought me here

ethereal

I'm sure this is a tasty little snack, but it's proabably more nostalgia than actually a real great burger... you can't beat today's burgers with that.

Roasty dark maillard flavors....👌

Nick, you may be american but you come from the UK.

02:09 "This is what the first hamburger looked like" Almost certain it was a piece of beef mince between two slices of white bread. In fact I'm certain eater have done a feature on said burger.

MAILLARD REACTION

"White Squishy Buns" 😉

I think Queen wrote a song about white squishy buns.

Concussive and profound... 👌

Is the M10 the platonic ideal of a rangefinder?

the prototypical, quintessential slider

haven't watched, but predicting "profound".... aaaannnd there it is!

ITS FUCKING PROFOUND!!!!

Yum

perfect

Human profoundly deep level

Well, that is profoundly platonic

I always wonder is the host of this show British? He has a very interesting accent that sound slightly British. I just haven't been able to be 100% sure... nonetheless he is the beast host for this channel.

That guy looks like Pat LaFrieda.

WE ARE!

Nick : 'maybe i should just retire' dude, its not like you actually work

That Leica though

oh man this is the episode where he used the most amount of long words yet on Eater.

has Nick been to Ben's Chili Bowl yet?

I'm watching this while starving!!!! it's human profoundly bastardy

What's better this or white manna?

White rose is a replication of White Castle

You guys should invite George Motz to talk about burgers!

Now that's one platonic HAT.

Smashed on a flat top is the best way to go always! do they not season the beef at all though? I give shit to 5 guys constantly for that lol :P

Do not all the juices escape with the smash thing?
