An Upscale Dairy Queen

I realized how far and wide Berkshire Hathaway's investments extend when I found this news story. Dairy Queen is opening a new store in Lancaster, New York, according to The Buffalo News.

What's interesting is that Dairy Queen and The Buffalo News are owned by Berkshire Hathaway, according to the article.

The Dairy Queen mentioned in the story is a DQ Grill & Chill, which features a more diversified menu than Dairy Queen's Brazier stores. Instead of just offering food such as hamburgers and hot dogs, the Grill & Chill stores' selections include turkey sandwiches and quesadillas. The atmosphere is also a step up from the other DQ stores.

This subject was also particularly interesting to me because I have visited the DQ Grill & Chill in Columbia City (located here). That is the only Grill & Chill in this area that I know of.

Buffett does it all. Underwear, insurance, newspapers, furniture, and, yes... ice cream.
