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.
Afaik, Culver’s is a Midwestern exclusive restaurant. I’m generally in KC Missouri which is why I mentioned those two places
South Carolina we have Culver’s here as well.
There is one whole Culver’s in San Antonio, Texas.
That frozen custard is dope af.
They have Culver’s all over Charlotte, NC
They’re definitely also in states considered “Western States” in addition to the “Midwestern States” these days.
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.
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.
Minskeys is overpriced trash. Would rather have Waldo pizza buffet or hell even Pizza Shuttle.
Every proper restaurant is unique. I believe you are talking about fast-food joints.
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.
There are definitely non-fastfood chains.
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.
As for Chinese restaurants, Golden Rice near my home owns my soul. Crispy Honey Chicken, their Crab Rangoons, ugh, so good
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.
I live in Seattle, too many to count.
Dick’s.
People from Seattle eating Dick’s will never not be funny.
Y’all ever heard of Bojangles?
Bojangles is good, but they’re all over the south.
Southeast anyway

Chain restaurants are sort of rare where I live (NOLA) but Dat Dog is pretty good. You basically pick a type of sausage and the toppings but the sausages are good and the toppings can involve everything from ketchup to crawfish étouffée. It’s like if a hot dog place but obviously way better.
Dat dog is fire
Dat Dog in Frenchman’s Quarter is my go to whenever I am in town.
Fuck now I miss NOLA :(
Used to live there and nowhere else compares in terms of food :(
Also have Culver’s here, but my favorite is the OG Burger King in mattoon, IL.
Moved to the PNW from Atlanta, I miss Zaxbys so much
I used to think we were the only place in the US to have a Rocky Rococo’s because it, as far as I’m aware, was the only one in the upper northwest of the country. But otherwise, I can’t really think of many places here that you can’t find anywhere else that I’ve actually gone to and know aren’t anywhere else.
I know my parents have been to local restaurants, but as far as I’m aware, I just can’t think of any that I’ve been to.
Yuck. They are local - literally founded here - and they are inedible. I don’t know how they ever spread that far.
Compared to the other pizza places in my hometown (Domino’s, Papa John’s, Pizza Hut, Little Caesars, etcetera) it’s literally the 2nd best chain restaurant pizza I’ve ever had.
Word of mouth. Damn good food.
The one and only thing I really miss about Alabama is Foosacklys. They’re kinda like Zaxby’s, but way better.
Monicles Pizza
