Steak-N-Shake

Steak n Shake used to be our go to late night food choice.  Then a lot of locations closed and we moved to the west coast where they do not exist.  I ordered the Frisco Melt which I still love. I ordered cheese for my fries because I remembered the fries suck.  However when I got back to my room I found no cheese.  Very disappointing.

Everything I like about Skyline Chili, I dislike about Steak-N-Shake.

I was on my way from Lima, Ohio, to Chicago at 4 a.m. and thought I would either burst from a full bladder or faint from hunger, so I pulled into the only restaurant that seemed to have an open lobby.

Having never been inside, I didn't realize Steak-N-Shake was a sit-down diner. So I used the restroom and plopped down, ordering a chocoloate milkshake and a double steakburger with cheese. Both were a disappointment.

The double steakburger, with it's $4 pricetag, should have been twice as big as it was. I appreciate it being served on a real, non-disposable plate with the toppings stacked to the side.The milkshake was good but not great.

Anyway, with tip, the whole thing ended up being $10. So much for a quick, cheap bite on the road.
