The onion rings and fried cheese curds were also very good. <br /><br />You order at the counter like at McDonalds, but they bring your food to your table, which is nice.Ann Althousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01630636239933008807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6329595.post-57427752242196781032010-07-29T15:27:13.710-05:002010-07-29T15:27:13.710-05:00Those cheese curds have had me thinking about them...Those cheese curds have had me thinking about them all day.

Indeed, it's the closest fast food restaurant to my house, which is saying something according to <a href="http://www.atascocitatexas.com/images/area_photos/fastfood2.jpg" rel="nofollow">this</a>. Excluding the occasional frozen yogurt trip, we ate there exactly once in the year it has been open.<br /><br />Still we heard for 2 years before it opened about it coming. How great it would be went it arrived. And still read and hear, all by word of mouth not paid advertisement, that it is great. What is great about it?

Reliable access to Culver's curds and shakes (try hot fudge & mint, a.k.a. the Grasshopper) would be the fast track to an early heart attack for me.
