Radio WORLD – Kicker – Hidden fast food
Vintage Burger King found behind a wall
NICK EICHER, HOST: Officials in Wilmington, Delaware were blown away by what they found hiding behind walls in a shopping center.
It was like being in a time capsule. A completely out-of-date design that includes parquet floors, faux potted plants, and walls stained with ketchup.
County Executive Matt Meyer was surprised to find it.
MEYER: This is probably the oldest intact Burger King restaurant in the world.
Correctly. Vintage Burger King, still operating 13 years ago.
Some locals remember it’s there, but they don’t think it’s still there, hiding behind those walls.
The mall hopes to rent out the place. Maybe after they cleaned it up a bit.
MEYER: Looks like they left us, uhh, some fries here.
It’s the World and Everything in it.
