31-White Castle (Jimmie's Diner)

December 31, 2021 • Wichita Podcast • Season 1 • Episode 31

The burger industry (let alone the fast food industry as a whole) would not be the same if it was not for White Castle. And where did White Castle begin? Good guess - Wichita!

We sat down at Jimmie's Diner to have a meal and discuss the rich history how White Castle shaped the world 100 years ago. They were truly the first chain restaurant to build an infrastructure and system to make sure their product was perfected and standardized across the board. And if not for White Castle, Jimmie's Diner would also not exist. Join us as we walk through the histories of both White Castle and Jimmie's Diner and how they are closely related today.

A special thank you to Jimmie's Diner for letting us do the podcast from their restaurant and Joe who came on to speak with us about Jimmie's Diner.
