Top drive-through food

By George Dodson


If you grew up in the 60s, or watch such television shows such as Happy Days, you're familiar with the drive-in restaurants. Back then, these were pretty much a hype. Waiters back then were usually girls and they were called "Car hops". They wore uniforms in almost all occasions. The use of roller skates for waiters were very popular and very efficient back then.

You could pull up in a car hop would come to your car and take your order. Your order will then soon arrive on a special tray that is hooked on your car window. You'd consume the food and put the trash run on the tray, on the horn, and the car hop would come and retrieve your tray. Beach boy movies were such a hit back in the days and drive-ins were the mostly used settings which gave some drive-ins popularity.

Most of these drive-in serve fast food such as burgers, fries, and some soft drinks such as Coke or Pepsi. In some places you can order chicken or grilled cheese sandwich.

With the constant improvement of technology comes also the improvements in the drive through business. Modern drive throughs no longer make use of "car hops" with their sleek uniforms and skates. Still, some local entrepreneurs try to keep up a time-honored tradition. Their set up is pretty much simple and the prices are very much affordable. However, competition for this kind of business is very much risky specially if you're competing with major companies. What is the best drive-in food?

There are tons of great drive-ins however the one on the top of the list would be "Sonic". Some of the newest features of these modern drive-ins are the specialized menus, easy parking and the drive through where a customer can simply make an order and wait for it. Gone are the days when they bring trays that fit on your window. Food is not brought to each customer through paper or plastic bags.

Having to decide which drive-in food is the most palatable for everyone is quite a difficult question to answer. Considering the oldest food served on restaurants, hamburgers seem to stand out and most favored. For most of these drive-ins, the burger is easy to fix, and easy to price competitively.

Some of the more famous drive-ins such as Dairy Queen, and A&W root beer, had specialties that there famous for. Most of the customers who go to these drive-ins, are therefore a specific food such as a specialized burger, or some special fries. Modern drive-ins feature specialty foods which consumer can easily take note of. One prime example is Carl Junior's six dollar burger.

Through the years, ice cream has also been made a specialty like Dairy Queens "specialized ice cream". In addition, root beet was also made a specialty food just like what A&W have for each of their meals and orders.

The Burger King double whopper is also something that each drive-in customer is looking forward to because of its size and its meaty taste. Yet again, we can see through here that burgers have the most variations and therefore has the most right to voted the best drive-in food.

Many people have been concerned about the ingredients in some of these foods, and such stores like McDonald's began serving healthier meals such as salads and fruits. Essential contrarily well.
