School's out until September and we have all pretty much settled at home for the summer. Whether it’s with family or friends, some of us may also be travelling at some point during the summer. For those who are travelling either through or to the southern United States, I have a suggestion for you: Whataburger.
Whataburger can be found in Arizona, New Mexico, Oklahoma, Arkansas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama, Georgia, Florida, and most notably, Texas.
As a native to the region I can attest that Whataburger is the only clear option for a quick and somewhat cheap meal. The best part is that they’re all open 24 hours! I know it’s kind of cliche to say this about any fast food restaurant that isn’t McDonalds, but Whataburger really does have a better burger!
I don’t eat fast food much, but I really do get excited when I’m looking for something to eat at four am and drive past that beautifully lit orange building.
Anyways, this is just my humble suggestion. I know every region has the best restaurant, and I’m sure there is something out there that is better than Whataburger. However, if you find yourself in the South, I encourage you to try this place that has essentially been a staple to my adolescence.
Here’s a quick suggestion from the menu:
The Combo #13: Chicken strips are always a safe choice. The chicken strips at Whataburger really do put chicken strips at any other fast food restaurant to shame. You can get them with your choice of dipping sauce, whether that be ranch, BBQ sauce, or warm gravy. The meal also comes with a piece of Texas toast and fries. I suggest getting sweet tea as a drink. While you’re in the south, you might as well embrace the southern comfort food.
