Whataburger reprises its chop house cheddar burger for a limited time in Arkansas, Texas, and Oklahoma. A release claims that fans have been clamoring for its return. The burger has two patties, grilled onions, cheddar cheese, bacon, and steak sauce on a fresh, toasted, five-inch bun.

That sounds like quite the bun, but the release seems to imply that the defining element here is the steak sauce. VP Rich Scheffler says, "This unforgettable burger is full of flavor and topped with our very own creamy steak sauce that makes for a steak lover's dream." The burger is available as a meal or a la carte, and also can be ordered as a junior version on a smaller bun.

During April it'll be Sundays only, adding Saturdays on April 30.

Entrees include chicken sandwich with Havarti cheese, pancetta, arugula, and pesto; lobster tacos with cabbage, avocado, and a brown rice medley; and a New York steak with grilled vegetables.

La Madeleine is introducing new "custom" crêpes. A release says they're handmade, which is what you might expect from crepes that are custom. But wait, there's more: They're not only custom and handmade, they're made to order. Fillings such as scrambled eggs, bacon, fresh chopped spinach, diced tomatoes, cheddar, and more. The release says they're also open-faced, and although a breakfast item, will be served all day. So they're not really a breakfast item.

Del Frisco's Double Eagle Steak House has new appetizers, entrees, and sides. Heirloom tomato and burrata salad is drizzled in a balsamic glaze. Sea bass with bean garlic sauce comes with crab fried rice and an Asian slaw. Seafood platter now includes two stone crab claws, three shrimp, and a half pound of Alaskan king crab.
