Culver’s and Minskeys are probably my favorites

Edit: I have been informed that Culver’s is in a lot more places than I originally thought! The more ya know!

I hate to inform you of this, but Culver’s was a Wisconsin exclusive until maybe 10 years ago. I assume you are in KC, as they have Minskeys and Culver’s there. By all means, though, celebrate Minskeys. If it’s the pizza place in KC, General Tsos pizza sounds amazing.

I’ll suggest Tom’s Drive-in for burgers and Rocky Roccoco for pizza in my area.

Had a Culver’s in Colorado Springs when I was in highschool like 10 years ago, pretty sure it was there even sooner.

There are a few here in Texas, too.

Afaik, Culver’s is a Midwestern exclusive restaurant. I’m generally in KC Missouri which is why I mentioned those two places

They’re definitely also in states considered “Western States” in addition to the “Midwestern States” these days.

Minskeys is overpriced trash. Would rather have Waldo pizza buffet or hell even Pizza Shuttle.

I thought it was just in Wisconsin.

My wife and I went on a full vegetarian diet for two weeks (a friend recommended a “cleanse” of sorts). We did, and the first meal with meat we had were Culver’s double bacon cheeseburgers. We nearly threw up.

Every proper restaurant is unique. I believe you are talking about fast-food joints.

There are definitely non-fastfood chains.

Denny’s? iHop? Outback? Texas Roadhouse? Red Lobster? Hard Rock? Rainforest Cafe?

These are not “proper restaurants?” They’re certainly not fast food.

I don’t know that I would call any national chain a “proper restaurant” but maybe that’s just me.

Tokyo Express.

Despite the name, it’s a Chinese restaurant. $6 will buy a meal that’s 3 whole pounds of food. The styrofoam containers are usually stuffed so full, they barely close.

I used to be near a place like that in college. I could eat 2 or 3 meals from them. And it was good. They did Chinese food and donuts. Stoners paradise.

As for Chinese restaurants, Golden Rice near my home owns my soul. Crispy Honey Chicken, their Crab Rangoons, ugh, so good
