The Sunday Lou’s Drive-In Palate Cleanser: Week Number Five
Here we are at Lou’s Drive-In on a wonderful almost summer day in May. Let’s go up and place this week’s order.
Andrea was the pretty Lou’s girl on duty and she took this week’s order while flashing a beautiful smile for the MBIP Camera!
Here’s the obligatory Lou’s Drive-In photo while I wait for the order to come up.
Okay, the order is up and there’s the Lou’s sign pointing us back to home sweet home!

Here’s this week’s Lou’s Drive-In Meal, let’s take it out of the bag and see what we’re working with this week.
We’ve eaten all the sides, so we’re just eating the sandwiches and drinks from here on in. Let’s try the milkshake first.
Jamie Messmore alerted me to the fact that they have a Root Beer Milkshake that’s not on the menu last week on facecrack.
So I ordered it and was a thick, creamy and delicious milkshake! Thanks for the tip about this hidden gem, Jamie!
For our sandwich this week, we got the Boca Burger, which is the fake meat hamburger. I wasn’t too excited about this, but I cut it in half to try it two different ways.
I probably should’ve gotten it with mustard, but here’s the first bite with some onion on it. It has a spongey texture to it and a weird flavor. Not too tasty at all! Kind of what I was expecting from a Boca Burger!
For the other half I got got an order of chili and cheese to try and jazz this thing up a little.
Even the chili and cheese couldn’t save this spongey fake meat hamburger!
Ugh, not recommended at all! First time I’ve ever been disgusted by food at Lou’s Drive-In!

The Menu
We’ve eaten our way through the Side Orders, but there’s still many drinks and sandwiches to go!

The Ratings
The Boca Burger takes its rightful place at the bottom of the sandwich list and the Root Beer Milkshake was a real treat, but not quite as good as the Vanilla Milkshake, which keeps its place at the top of the Drinks list.

The Suggested Lou’s Drive-In Meal
