Rainbow's is probably the most well-known Drive-in in the state so I know a
thing or two about it. I have had burgers and fries at the place but mostly,
they serve plate lunches. Nobody goes to Rainbow's for burgers and fries.
I'll get burgers because they're cheaper and smaller than a plate lunch and
my stomach can't handle a big plate.

They serve fried rice there too - that don't make Rainbow's a Chinese
restaurant. They also serve ice cream but it ain't an Ice Cream Parlour. You
people take things too literally. You have not proved a thing - except your
pettiness. That's par for this course, I'm sorry to say.

Deal.
