While in KC, we wanted to be sure to take Nova to Fritz's Railroad Resaurant. We had heard great things and it sounded like fun for all.
A train runs around a track above the tables and delivers your order. Too cool. It drops your tray as it goes on by, and your food comes down on a hydraulic system.
The original restaurant was started by Fritz and Virginia Kropf in 1954. Fritz invented the food delivery system in his basement, mainly because of the shortage of help at the time.
Call in your order... a waitress will bring your drinks.
Wooo-Wooo~ there goes an order!
This is our food comin' down! It was less than 5 minutes, unbelievable!
Paper engineer hats were given out. I couldn't get Nova to wear his fabric hat for his birthday party, but he wouldn't take this paper one off! Kids?!
I think that's one customer who will be back!
He would not let go of that hat for anything. It's not like he thought the wind would blow it off, we had parked in a garage. I know he was tired, but he looked so uncomfortable holding it... forEVER....
Here's a little video to see the train in motion! (You may want to scroll all the way down and pause the background music.)

OMGosh! I've never seen or heard of that before! My little boy would love it! Nova is so cute holding on to his little hat!

That is just too neat!!! My boys would have had such fun there when they were little. Maybe they still would. LOL We went to a bar-b-cue restaurant in the Keys that had the train running around the top, but no food delivery like this. Nova is too cute with the hat.
What a cute diner!
What a fun outing!! Nova will always remember this day!!

Super cute!
If you ever come down to Ft. Smith, you'll have to eat in the Nickel & Dime Diner. It's in an old railroad car.
This is the best Diner ever !
What a neat idea. I've never heard of anything like that. And how funny about his loving this hat so much (vs. the one at his party). :)
Now that looks like fun and what a cutie Nova is!
