Despite never having car service before, we elected to sit at one of the picnic tables. Yes, we realized this could be <span style=\"font-style:italic;\">controversial<\/span>, but after spending 1\/3 of the previous day in the car, dining <span style=\"font-style:italic;\">al fresco<\/span> was a welcome option. Just a few minutes after sitting down, a server arrived with a tray of food. I ordered the SuperSONIC\u00ae Cheeseburger with ketchup, fries and a Sprite, and Erica ordered the Bacon Cheeseburger TOASTER\u00ae Sandwich with fries and a Coke. I was pleased, that was a tasty burger. Erica enjoyed her sandwich too. The fries were okay. <br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/wfyurasko\/2298167924\/\" title=\"0802230041 by wfyurasko, on Flickr\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/farm4.static.flickr.com\/3245\/2298167924_19216748d3.jpg?resize=500%2C375\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" alt=\"0802230041\" \/><\/a><br \/>Despite being satisfied, I also ordered a Coney, a foot long hot dog, with chili (hey, today&#8217;s <a href=\"http:\/\/www.yurasko.net\/wfy\/2008\/02\/its-national-chili-day.html\"><span style=\"font-weight:bold;\">National Chili Day<\/span><\/a>), cheese, mustard and onions.
