Fond du Lac, Wisconsin has this institution called "Gilles" - a drive-in restaurant - our first stop doing the rounds of this beautiful city and I think it could be a million dollar idea.
"PUT YOUR LIGHTS ON FOR SERVICE"
The girls come promptly and take your order and you sit back and relax and wait for it to arrive. Delicious burgers, hot dogs and toasted cheese sandwiches (naturally it is Wisconsin, home of cheese) - but the pieced de resistance is the "frozen custard" or soft serve ice cream.
Choose from the huge menu board - Bruce could not resist the root beer floater and myself, the Turtle Sundae - lashings of vanilla frozen custard with caramel and chocolate sauce topped with a cherry - mmmum,mmmmr!
Can you imagine not having to get out of your jammies to get a good square meal - its not fast food it is so relaxing sitting in the car chatting to your fellow passengers - and it is not slow food cause you finish eating at your own pace and then drive away. Wow, it was fantastic! Even the trash containers are designed to just drive by and drop in - no mess left in the car. The benefits and attractions are endless.
Watch this space and I will keep you posted.
