Typically crowded on summer evenings, Ted Drewes Chippewa location opened in 1941. Drewes is best known for a specialty called a "concrete", which is frozen custard blended with any of dozens of ingredients, and served in a large yellow cup with a spoon and straw. Concretes are blended so thick that they and their spoon do not fall out when their cup is turned upside-down; servers often demonstrate this before handing customers their order.
In case you are unfamiliar with frozen custard, it is like ice cream except richer and smoother including eggs as an ingredient in addition to cream and sugar.
