In honor of the late Dave Thomas I took my appetite to a drive-through Wendy's
last night. It's not often that I manage to swing by Wendy's, as they suffer
from fewer locations than their competition. In spite of this, it has always
qualified as my favorite of the fast food joints, but even then I found myself
truly shocked at the quality of my dinner, which was tasty and shockingly fresh.
I don't know if they were putting extra effort in after the death of their
founder, if I had freakishly good timing, or if this location was some sort of
burger heaven (I almost said nirvana, but that's inappropriate isn't it?), but
when is the last time you had a fast-food burger that you had to be careful to
keep from burning your mouth? My own answer is easy enough -- last night was the
first time ever (even counting that McDLT hot side hot/cool side cool dealie).
