Okay, it’s time to take a break from the bars and go and sample our sixth meal from Lou’s Drive-In!

Let’s all go to Lou’s!

The Sunday Lou’s Drive-In Palate Cleanser: Week Number Six

Here we are, back at Lou’s Drive in for the sixth time of this summer! Even though it’s not officially summer yet, but it’s close enough, so what the hell? Why not, as I always say!

There’s the island and there’s no line, so let’s go on up and place this week’s order.

Once again, Andrea was working behind the counter and it was a treat to see her pretty, smiling face again!

She took this week’s order and we’re off and running for another week here at Lou’s Drive-In!

While I was waiting for my order to be done, I ran into Kirk Wessler and it’s always a pleasure to see him.

Kirk’s a local musician and you can read all about him and his music at his website right here. His next gig is at The Queen of Squash next Saturday and you can see all of his upcoming shows by clicking here.

The Lou’s sign is pointing back to our home base, so it’s off we go!

The MBIP World Headquarters Dining Area

We’re back at MBIP World Headquarters dining area and it’s time to unbag this week’s Lou’s lunch.

This week we got a tenderloin and a frozen Lemonade. Let’s dig in and try these treats from Lou’s Drive-In out

The Frozen Lemonade was sweet and tasty, but probably my least favorite drink from Lou’s so far.

It wasn’t bad, but it wasn’t as good as the other drinks. I don’t want to be mean to it, so we’ll just leave it at that.

For this week’s sandwich, I got the tenderloin with onions and mustard.

It looks good and the bun feels bakery fresh. Let’s dig in and try it out!

This is a very good tenderloin sandwich. It’s crispy on the outside and it’s tender and tasty as you bite into it.

The bun is indeed bakery fresh and this is a delicious tenderloin sandwich! I highly recommend it!

Two more items have been crossed off as we work our way down the Lou’s Drive-In menu.
