The way Krystals are cooked is in every way the same. When I watched the Food Channel "Unwrapped" segment on White Castle, the technique for laying out the onions, then the patties, and then the buns with a lid placed over them to steam them, is absolutely the same technique used at Krystal. They're finished off with a squirt of mustard and a pickle.
So, if you're ever down this way, now you know what to look for! A different name, perhaps, but the same taste and after-effect!

both restarants are plentifull around here ,, the big difference is white castle uses spicey brown mustard and krystal uses yellow mustard.. the tastes is quite different(I preferr white castle) the secret to krystal is that they use a reconstituted dry onion bits, I'm guessing white castle uses plain old chopped onions .
