There goes my summer diet - according to Smart Shanghai, Carls Jr., the burger chain we went gaga for when its first location started serving artery clogging goodness in People's Square, will now have a second shop in the Wujiang Lu food mall. more ›

Oh the artery-clogging glory of it all! There are few words to express our good, old fashioned love of American fast food, but in celebration of the first Carl's Jr. to open in China, we figured we'd find a few grade-A words to celebrate. In case you've never been in the States, Carl's Jr. is a bastion of burgers, fries and shakes, all served to order and in heaping portions à la mode américaine glutton. more ›

CNReviews has discovered what looks to be one of the first Carl’s Jr. to hit Shanghai. Snapped in Raffles City Mall near People’s Square was this very promising looking construction setup promising charbroiled goodness from 卡乐星 (ka le xing).

Our childhood memories of Carl's Jr. were of fried zucchini and decent tasting cheeseburgers; our adult memories, thanks to ads like the one embedded here, are even more enriched. We can't wait to see what kind of campaign will be run here; we really hope it doesn't include Yao Ming or Jackie Chan. more ›
