Yesterday, I planned to do a retro thing after boating.
First, I went to the local Dog 'N Suds in Ingleside, Illinois (there are two others in nearby Richmond and Grayslake which is probably more in a small area than any place in the US).
Enjoyed their customer-relation signs like "Be Nice...Or Get Out" and "If Your Not Served in 5 min., You'll Get Served in 8 or 9 min. (Maybe 12) RELAX" while waiting for the car hop to return with my order.
I was thinking about getting on of the World Famous Coney Dogs, but settled for a Charco-Burger when I found they were the special of the day at 99 cents. Of course, washed it down with an icy mug of root beer. Mighty fine eating.
Shake of the month was pumpkin, but I was too full.
Prices this year:
World Famous Coney Dog- $2.19 or $3.99 basket (with fries and cole slaw)
Charco Burger-- $1.98 or $3.78 basket
16 ounce mug of root beer-- $1.40
Miller's Dog 'N Suds is open March to October.
Listened to oldies as played by Y-103.9 FM out of Crystal Lake while enjoying that great food.
A Great Start to a Retro Night. --RoadDog
