Tuesday (?) was 6 tacos for a dollar night, I always insisted on a cheeseburger with mustard and mayonnaise. Yes, I was a picky kid. Dick Naugle also founded Del Taco, the first of which was in Corona, where I grew up. After he sold Del Taco, which used to be excellent, by the way, he opened the Naugles chain. There was a short period of time, I'm guessing after he died, that the two chains merged, and then they both sucked.
The most important information here is that Del Taco used to be good. Now, if you're in the Inland Empire, go to Miguel Jr.'s. Amazingly good drive-thru Mexican food. Almost worth jumping on the 91 and heading down there.
But I think I'll resist the temptation.
I'm trying to remember the saying printed on the drink cups, "Fix it fresh, Fix it fast, something something something - Dick Naugle," with a little drawing of his head.
