Yep the Bretheren. Their dementia floor was great for him in his last years. Nothing but great things to say about the facility.

I was amazed at the line of cars aways at Maid-Rite so I had to try it. First time it was ok. After about the 10th time I liked them. (kinda like beer started way back in the day)

I had a 996 that must have been the previous owner’s breakfast spot for years. It cleaned up with basic cleaning techniques.

If you are running around for work in the middle of the day sometimes you don't have a choice.
Don't put salt on your fries though.

I used to have issues with eating in my car, but I'm better now. I also didn't drive the cool car in the rain.

I change my vote. Eating in the car is one thing (quite nice at times), but spilling food in the car AND LEAVING IT THERE is another thing completely.

I do occasionally, especially during the last year. However, rarely if ever do I eat while driving. Just park it. At Sonic they even expect you to. Just drive into a spot, roll down the window, order from the car side kiosk at each spot, they bring it out and you eat. Yeah it pays to have an old car that has a lot of wear and tear. I keep the interior clean with no clutter. Any trash gets disposed of in a proper bin somewhere. The only major spill I remember was when my son and I were driving across New Mexico. While eating in a parking lot he spilled his drink on the floor. Fortunately those old Volvo floor mats were like cavernous plastic trays. We just carefully pulled it out of the car and poured it out. Still at the restaurant, he went in and got a refill and some more napkins to dry the floor mat.
