I'd been eyeing it for a few weeks. I pass it on my way home from Target&mdash;a well-travelled route, you may be sure&mdash;and it reminded me of <a href="http://www.hollyeats.com/BobbiesDairyDip.htm" target="_blank">Bobbie's Dairy Dip</a> in Nashville. Finally, one evening last week, I suggested that the weather was perfect for eating outside, and that a milkshake and fries would be just the thing for dinner, so we went to try out the <a href="http://www.icebergdriveinn.com/" target="_blank">Iceberg Drive Inn</a>.

This was no Bobbie's Dairy Dip. My fries and malt were good enough, but I didn't like the overabundance and thickness of the malt. I realize that the Iceberg is known for "thick shakes" (having been informed of this by Meg, our source of information on all things local), but I guess I'm not really a fan of thick shakes. The malt was more like a Frosty from Wendy's, basically soft-serve ice cream. When I have a shake or malt, I eventually want to be able to drink it through a straw&mdash;slurping is necessary for full enjoyment. James' complaint was that there were beans on his chili dog. Where we come from, chili dogs definitely do not have beans!<div style="float: right; margin-right: 5px; margin-bottom: 5px;"><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/46897267@N00/132542073/" title="malt, fries, fry sauce"><img src="http://static.flickr.com/45/132542073_fd9c84e91d_m.jpg" width="240" height="180" alt="" /></a></div>

The Iceberg did provide my second exposure to a traditional Utah food item: fry sauce. Fry sauce is a mixture of ketchup and mayonnaise that's served at diners, drive-ins and burger joints across the state. My first exposure was at the Golden Loop Cafe in Escalante, where bottles of fry sauce were available alongside the ketchup and mustard. I've used this condiment combination almost exclusively on hot dogs in the past. It works pretty well for fries.
