A cult Midwest chain is better than In-N-Out and Shake Shack — here's what it's like to eat there

I've been living in New York for about two years now.
And while Shake Shack's shackburger has become my go-to fast food in the city, I often feel like there's something missing from my greasy feast.
That's why the minute I get home to Chicago, I immediately seek out my favorite chain back home in the Midwest: Culver's.
To get a good look at what makes this burger chain — dare I say it — better than In-N-Out or Shake Shack, I visited Wisconsin, where I had my first Culver's experience many years ago.
To start my culinary adventure, I found a Culver's in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, home of the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh, the alma mater of Culver's CEO Craig Culver.
We went around 4:30 p.m. on a rainy day, and the place was already packed for the evening. The menu board greeted us with a host of options from frozen treats to full meals, called "baskets," that came with drinks and a side.
After placing our orders, we went to fill up our soda. Culver's is known for its signature root beer, which tastes even better with a dollop of Culver's vanilla frozen custard.
