Heart Attack Grill is a Place to Eat Your Last Meal

For the second time in as many months, a customer at the Heart Attack Grill may have had one meal too many at the Las Vegas eatery.  I'm talking burgers.

On Saturday, a woman collapsed at the restaurant known for gleefully serving up artery-clogging entrees.

Owner Jon Basso said Monday that he wishes the customer a swift and full recovery. But, he added, the woman got exactly what she asked for: a brush with death.

"We attract an avant-garde clientele -- thrill seekers, risk takers," he told the Los Angeles Times, adding that his restaurant is a "bad for you but fun" restaurant that "attracts people who don't really take good care of their health."

The chain's slogan is "a burger to die for," employees refer to guests as "patients," and a sign reads "Caution: This establishment is bad for your health."

The Quadruple Bypass Burger, which has been called one of the "world's worst junk foods," has 8,000 calories. It consists of four half-pound beef patties, eight slices of America cheese, a whole tomato and half an onion served in a lard-coated bun. A customer can also add 20 slices of "unadluterated" (not drained of grease) of bacon to the Quadruple, if they have a death wish.
