    I live in Kansas City and I worked at IN-A-TUB back in 1983 my junior year in high school. IN A TUB actually started on North Cherry Street In a lady's house and it didn't start with tacos. She sold a loose meat sandwich she called a Pocket Burger to kids after school. A guy that worked for her bought it after it moved up into a tiny building on N Oak Trafficway. And the menu was huge. You walked in and placed your order at one window and picked it up at another, there was no seating. There were a bunch of metal picnic tables and chairs outside and it was "The Hang out!" place. for High School kids. When I worked there it was 10 times better than now. We used real lard in every menu item that was fried. It was family owned and run and they sold a few franchises in Antioch shopping Mall, Blue Springs, and a place near where you ate in Parkville. It was as close as you could get to a movie like Porky's in the 50s as you could get. A friend of mine I grew up with and worked there with actually bought a franchise and opened a location in Midtown Kansas City. I had a lot of fun working there and we were all like a family. We closed down a few times due to snow and went across the street to Water Works Park to ride sleds and tube. Many of us were into ATVs and 4 wheel drive trucks and now and then we would go ride on the Kansas River. Since I worked there I cooked a million pounds of hamburger and remembered the recipe and make them at home every now and then. I see and stayed friends with the main son that ran everything. I am sure he is still alive, he'd be about 71 I think.

    In- A -Tub makes the best tacos,I’ve been eating them for 60 years love the place . I Used to go to their original drive in that was about three blocks down the road when I was In high school. It’s just one of the hidden gems scattered around K.C. that the locals know about. Glad you got to discover them for yourself , next time your in town try Hayes Hamburgers and Chili they’ve been in business since 1955 best smash burgers around . Bon appétit !

    In -A-Tub ROCKS!!! Closest thing to the ones my mom made! Love Em! True story...local place here in KC is 54th Street. Good Tacos, original place was next to a Hy-Vee. Taco Tuesdays I would drop by Hy-vee, pick up a family size box of Mac n Cheese. Open the package walking out of the store, dump the pasta and box. Take the package of powered cheese to 54...before long I would be passing the powdered cheese package around the bar.
