But in their new operation,they offered a new, shortened menu: French fries, hamburgers, and sodas. Tothis small selection they added one new concept: quick service, no waiters orwaitresses, and no tips. Their hamburgers sold for fifteen cents. Cheese was another fourcents. Their French fries and hamburgers had a remarkable uniformity, for thebrothers had developed a strict routine for the preparation of their food, andthey insisted on their cooks sticking to their routine.
