I was thinking about that too. I like the comfort food angle and the goldfish crackers instead of oyster crackers. I discovered the secret to great Freedom onion soup (nar nar) Save all the rinds from your pecorino romano cheese until you have a bunch of them, then toss them into the soup while it cooks. After a hour or so all the flavor comes out of the cheese and into the soup. Toss the rinds out, they have no flavor left.

One way of keeping menu costs down is taking a soup nazi approach, this is the burger we make, if you want it, fine. If you don't, go somewhere else. As long as it tastes good, people don't need 87 choices. One type of roll - grilled kaiser roll, one type of cheese, NY Cheddar, one extra, caramelized onions. One type of side could be seasonal. Take it or leave it. People don't really need 14 permutations of burger when the outcome is still either they'll like it or they won't. They may not get the burger of their dreams but that won't change whether they like the burger they get.

I'm hungry. Let's go get a taco.
