Big Boy Restaurants is headquartered in Warren Michigan. Their website tells us that the first restaurant was opened in Glendale California in 1936 when Bob Wian sold his DeSoto Roadster ( appropriate that there is a car involved with a Michigan story) to buy a hamburger stand. He named it Bob's Pantry and in 1937 he created the first double-decker hamburger. The iconic logo (pictured above) was based on a boy who would sweep up for a FREE hamburger and was sketched by a movie studio animator.
Just last week I had dinner at Big Boy - we went for the Strawberry Festival. Big Boy has a good menu with lots to choose from. If you go don't forget to get a piece of delicious strawberry pie. The berries are huge and it is only $1.49.
The Gadfly Investigations Newspaper will have to take a ride to checkout the Big Boy Restaurants headquarters, I think we also need to get another piece of strawberry pie.
