Across the Street Restaurant on the Southside had Curly Fries,,,,Didn't the Split-T have Suzy-Q's????

[Steve]

You're getting warm General, but they weren't the first.

[Generals64]

All Right, I know the original Boomerang in Norman had Curly Fries.....And I want to think that Del Rancho had them in the early sixties....Now, I know for sure the Western Dip and Potter's (Al 'n Dub's) had straight cut fries. McDonald's has always had Straight cut....Bixler's (before your time) had curly fries if you special ordered them.....Hmmm give me a few minutes to kick the old brain in gear......Now, I know Arby's and Jack in the Box have Curly Fries but they don't call them Suzy Q's....you got me but don't tell me the answer, I'll call in the Gurus of this thread....for help....

[Steve]

Ok, here's another hint: they were invented at a classic Oklahoma City restaurant. It's still around. But you can't go there unless you're prepared to fly or take a very, very long drive.

I know but I'm not tellin' since I heard the answer from Steve this morning (at least, I think that he did).

Steve gave you a hint in the 1st post.

Then it had to do with Jack and not the sons, I would imagine.

Frosty Drive Inn

McGehee's at Marietta

I was thinking the same place..dangit

[Steve]

Nice try Fuzzy, but no again...
Here's another hint for you.
Burgers, shakes and old time favorites are still sold not just where this classic restaurant was located, but also where another city classic was located as well. Alas, it's not the same as these current offerings are hardly unique, but rather can be found pretty much anywhere in the country.

Not Jack Ogle, not the "kids," and not the "lost" one either.

Steve,
I noticed the Curtis Investment Company on your okchistory site. Kip Curtis
sold the property about 2 years ago. Kip is still around, in fact I saw him
Saturday at Ingrid's and gig with him around town. He's a fine pianist.

[Steve]

No kidding? Is this the Curtis who owned the properties on NW 23?

[Prunepicker]

Old Okie is the winner! Old Okie, can you share with us what "Ogle's Special"
was?

A chicken fried steak, gravy, a hot link, onions, bbq sauce, chopped pork,
chili, susy-Q's and a fried egg all between two waffles served with a Root
Beer Float.

[Prunepicker]

No kidding? Is this the Curtis who owned the properties on NW 23?

Yes. His dad started the company. Kip had a pop culture clothing store in
that location for a while.
