Using a pillowy bun as a barrier, hot dogs are safely protected from environmental hazards such as open manholes and greasy-handed schoolchildren. Enjoy snugly shielded franks with today's Groupon: for $4, you get $8 worth of hot dogs, hamburgers, and shakes at Rawley's Drive Inn in Fairfield.
From a red, two-story roadside restaurant built in 1827, Rawley's Drive Inn distributes a menu of classic American fare, including fried hot dogs that have earned accolades from The Food Network's The Best Thing I Ever Ate and Everyday with Rachael Ray, which recognized Rawley's core competency as one of the best hot dogs in the country. Rawley's team prepares dogs that range from the plain ($2.65), to the works, to the Hot Chihuahua, which saddles a frankfurter with mustard, onions, hot relish, and compliments from actor John Malkovich after a recent visit. French fries ($2.15 for small) and onion rings ($2.75) round out the oblong meal. Alternately, the two beef patties and side of fries of the burger deluxe satiates appetites ($5.95) and can be complemented by the cold comfort of a Rawley's milk shake ($4.75), a frigid treat that comes in a single size that fits all, like an elastic waistband covered in flakes of ice.
Groupon Says
The Groupon Guide to: Siblings
Because it's not polite to tell a child their age, many people don't know whether they are the eldest, middle, or youngest sibling in the family. Take this quiz to find out which one you might be:
Your favorite way to influence the future is by:
a. Organizing your son's social studies binder
b. Deconstructing Lego cities built by children to teach them to doubt the establishment
c. Chewing!
Your workout routine involves:
a. Bench-pressing smaller humans
b. Contemplating
c. Running on a metal wheel!
It's dinnertime. You take your place:
a. At the head of the table. Everyone in the family will be excited to hear you regale them with the story of how you won today.
b. In your bedroom. Watching your family members chew makes you sick.
c. In the food bowl! Hopefully you'll be able to pick out some of those delicious sunflower seeds!
If you could redecorate your home you would:
a. Expand. You need a home for all your cars and a garage for all your children. Oops! Other way around.
b. Burn the thing down
c. Add more tubes!
Answer key: If you picked mostly As: You're the eldest sibling, congratulations! Your assertive type A personality makes you a leader in the family and a difficult person to watch television with.
If you picked mostly Bs: You're the middle sibling. You're artistic, emotional, and immune to romantic comedy.
If you picked mostly Cs: Your name is Oreo, you're the fifth child in a litter of 14, and everyone here just wants you to come home.
