Remember Burger Chef? It was sold to Hardees in 1981. Check it out: http://www.freewebs.com/burgerchef/. Hardees is still around in Michigan. I forgot about the one on the east side. http://www.hardees.com/home. There are actually 3 left in Michigan. Remember Arthur Treachers? There are none in Michigan left. http://www.arthurtreachers.com/
This guy is a tool too, by the way. It sucks he is named Jason. :-(
What happened to Long John Silvers? There are 5 left in Michigan. http://www.ljsilvers.com/ I used to tear up their hush puppies when I was a kid.
Remeber Top Hat. Piper used to tear that shit up, the one at 59 and telegraph. They tasted like shit to me. They became Sonic. http://www.sonicdrivein.com/ There is now 1 in Michigan. In Southgate, 32 Miles from my house. The food looks awesome from the commercials. Who knows?
White Castle is still going strong. 36 locations the the southeast Michigan area. I still love a slider every now and then. http://www.whitecastle.com/
I can't think of anymore... anyone else?
Oh!!!! Rally's. The best fries in the universe!!! They are still Rally's in Kentucky and Indiana.

They became Checkers elsewhere: http://www.checkers.com/
There are 12 in the southeast Michigan area all within 25 miles. I might have to check them out. They look the same with the Rally's style fries. hmmmm...

Burger Chef. Boy, I do remember that one quite well. My brother had a sensitive stomach, however.. you wouldn't really know that he still does by the way he consumes food. :) After trips to Traverse City, we'd often have to make pitstops along the desolate, forested road for him to purge the remains of a Burger Chef meal. Soon, our TC meal plans were very much dictated by brother's stomach. Eventually, we quit Burger Chef. It is still taboo to mention that one around my brother... one too many bad experiences.
I didn't know it became Hardeeeeee's. I don't think I've ever been to one... wonder if he has? :)
Retro images, nice!
