It's a good time for the great taste of McDonald's.
Patrick McDonald opened "The Airdrome", a food stand, on
Huntington Drive (
Route 66) near the
Monrovia Airport in
Monrovia, California with Hot dogs being the first item sold. Then Hamburgers were ten cents, and all-you-can-drink orange juice was five cents. In
1940,
Maurice and
Richard ("Mac" and "
Dick") moved the entire building 40 miles (64 km) east, to
West 14th and 1398
North E
Streets in
San Bernardino, California.
The restaurant was renamed "McDonald's Bar-B-Q" and had twenty-five menu items, mostly barbecue.
In October 1948, after the
McDonald brothers realized that most of their profits came from selling hamburgers, they closed down their successful carhop drive-in to establish a streamlined system with a simple menu of just hamburgers, cheeseburgers, french fries, shakes, soft drinks, and apple pie. The carhops were eliminated to make McDonald's a self-service operation.
The brothers took great care in setting up their kitchen like an assembly line to ensure maximum efficiency. The restaurant's name was changed again, this time to simply "McDonald's," and reopened on
December 12, 1948.
In
1952, the brothers decided they needed an entirely new building in order to achieve two goals: further efficiency improvements, and a more eye-catching appearance. They collected recommendations for an architect and interviewed at least four altogether, finally choosing
Stanley Clark Meston, an architect practicing in nearby
Fontana, in the fall. The brothers and Meston worked together closely. They achieved the extra efficiencies they needed by, among other things, drawing the actual measurements of every piece of equipment in chalk on a tennis court behind the McDonald house (with Meston's assistant
Charles Fish). The design achieved a high level of noticeability thanks to gleaming surfaces of red and white ceramic tile, stainless steel, brightly colored sheet metal, and glass; pulsing red, white, yellow, and green neon; and last but not least, two 25-foot yellow sheet-metal arches trimmed in neon, called "golden arches" even at the design stage. A third, smaller arch
sign at the roadside hosted a pudgy character in a chef's hat, known as Speedee, striding across the top, trimmed in animated neon.
Wendy's is an
American international fast food chain restaurant founded by
Dave Thomas on
November 15,
1969, in
Columbus, Ohio,
United States. The company moved its headquarters to
Dublin, Ohio, on
January 29,
2006.
As of March 1999, Wendy's was the world's third largest hamburger fast food chain with approximately 6,650 locations, following Burger King's 12,
000+ locations and McDonald's' 31,000+ locations. On April 24, 2008, the company announced a merger with
Triarc, the parent company of
Arby's.
Despite the new ownership, Wendy's headquarters remained in
Dublin.[6]
Previously, Wendy's had rejected more than two buyout offers from
Triarc Companies Inc. Following the merger, Triarc became known as Wendy's/Arby's
Group (now The
Wendy's Company), a publicly traded company.
Approximately 85% of
Wendy's restaurants are franchised, all of which are located in
North America. Wendy's and its affiliates employ more than 47,000 people in its global operations. In fiscal year 2006, the firm had $2.469 billion (
USD) in total sales. While Wendy's sets standards for exterior store appearance, food quality and menu, individual owners have control over hours of operations, interior decor, pricing and staff uniforms and wages.
Wendy's menu consists primarily of hamburgers, chicken sandwiches,
French fries and beverages, including the
Frosty. Unlike Burger King and McDonald's, the company does not have a signature sandwich, such as the Whopper or the Big Mac.
Instead, it has the
Dave's Hot 'N Juicy 1/4 lb.
Single (introduced in
2011 as a reworking of the longstanding Wendy's Single), a square-pattied burger made with fresh ground beef rather than round frozen patties. Wendy's uses these square hamburger patties – which will hang over the edge of a circular bun – as its signature item.
