Ferndale Sonic!

I haven't seen so much buzz surrounding a fast-food opening since Krispy Kreme. I'm guessing it's because we've been teased by commercials of tantalizing Sonic drinks for so long via commercial, that we've been brainwashed to want this stuff; even though there was no Sonic anywhere nearby until now. Today was a special invite-only event. All orders were 50% off with 30% of the proceeds going to the Ferndale Boys and Girls Club. So that's pretty awesome. Plus, everyone had roller-skates on!

We were a little apprehensive when we got there since we had orders for about 8 people. The service was very friendly, extremely quick for the amount of food, and from what I heard, everyone seemed happy with the quality. The only problem we experienced was a few missing items, but I guess that's to be expected unfortunately.

Being a vegetarian, I ordered a breakfast sandwhich without meat, jalapeno poppers (that I didn't get!), cheesy tots and an apple limeade. It was all pretty good, especially for $3.00. The tots were crispy and didn't have too much cheese on them, the limeade was refreshing (but came in a thick styrofoam cup - bummer!) and the sandwhich was what I expected - egg and cheese on toasted bread. I'll definitely be checking it out again soon, perhaps during the happy hour (2-4 PM) with half-price drinks.

The Ferndale Sonic opens to the public tomorrow morning.
