Ted Drewes Frozen Custard

After crossing the Mississippi River into St Louis, Missouri, and visiting the St Louis Arch, we were in the mood for some frozen custard. So we found Route 66 again and, voila!, we found Ted Drewes Frozen Custard which has been on Route 66 since 1941.


After a long battle with the GPS -- it really wanted us to head to the interstate and it calculated a new way to send us there every time we took a "wrong turn" to stay on 66 -- we finally convinced it that we really wanted to be on Chippewa. Unfortunately, we could not convince it to say "CHIP - a - wah" it could only say "chip-PEW-uh"

Looks hot! Do you have reservations every night or are you just riding until you find a place to stay?

That's pretty funny about the GPS voice. Was the custard good???

The custard was very good but it sure melted quickly in the heat!!

Yes, Kate, it has been very warm along our route. We do have reservations every night, so we do need to make it a certain distance every day.
