Southern Utah In Mourning As Frostop Removes Beloved Item

Today I received a call from my sister... A call nobody wants to receive: One of your FAVORITE ITEMS is off the menu and one of your FAVORITE RESTAURANTS!

Larsen's Frostop is a beloved old-fashion drive-in in St. George. I've been there for years and I usually get ABOUT the same thing. A Corndog, A Grilled Cheese, or a Queen Burger, but instead of fries I always got something else... PICCADILLY CHIPS.

Today I've been made aware that Larsen's Frostop has put an end to the Piccadilly Chips, and I'm not happy. What is a Piccadilly Chip? I have no idea. According to Google, a Piccadilly Chip is "Authentic Battered Dipped English Style Fries. A flavor so rich you will come back for more!" Well, guess what Frostop? I can't come back for more now. You've killed the Piccadilly Chip! I hope you're happy!

Southern Utah Restaurants We REALLY Miss!

Orange Julius:

Orange Julius was in the Food Court at the mall. The Food Court that LITERALLY doesn't exist anymore, directly outside of Bohme and Dillards. I miss you, Orange Julius.

Sizzler:

Yes, I know Cedar City still has Sizzler, but St. George used to have one too! Right on St. George Boulevard. The current location is home to Alta Bank and looks NOTHING like a Sizzler!

JB's:

St. George had a JB's, and even Hurricane had a JB's. It was like, a little Dennys, kind of... But they had a buffet! The breakfast buffet was MY FAVORITE!! The JB's location is currently home to Zupas!

2 Fat Guys Pizza:

2 Fat Guys Pizza had a HORRIBLE location, but AMAZING pizza! It was in the little shopping center to the south of Walmart in Bloomington. Hungry Howies and Peppers Cantina are in the same spot that 2 Fat Guys used to be in. It was wood fired pizza, and delicious. After 2 Fat Guys left, MULTIPLE pizza places came into the same location and just couldn't make it work.

Charlie's:

Charlie's was a cute little restaurant that had ice cream, and soup, and sandwiches and always had a jukebox playing music. I miss Charlie's ALL THE TIME! Especially when I get sick. I miss that Chicken Noodle Soup. Charlie's location is now home to Swig on St. George Boulevard.
