…Restaurant. "In 1940, brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald opened McDonald's Bar-B-Q, a drive-in restaurant at 1398 North E. Street in San Bernardino, California. Eight years later they would shut down that operation to reopen their restaurant using their new "Speedee Service System."

This dates me…..but when I was attending college the McDonald's across the street from the campus was the go-to lunch spot. A burger, fries and a shake and you got change back from your dollar. And yes it was probably crap then, but you are going to school so you are young, stupid and broke. |

You're right. That does date you. |

The problem with McD's and BK are that they have so many menu choices, they rarely make anything fresh anymore, and rewarmed/barely warm fast food sucks. It's fast, but rather bland, and tasteless. That's why In-N-Out and others like it are literally eating their lunch, since they've adopted and stuck to the old skool method of a limited menu, served fresh and hot, and quickly. |
