The All Things Restaurants-Related Thread

We do not eat at fast food restaurants, just about never. I love to cook good quality foods. I live near the coast in Massachusetts, eat lots of Seafood, Gloucester, Maine, Lobster. Mediterranean mostly. A good steak house, Chop House now and then. Local restaurants for pizza.

My paid for and preferential lunches are pizza, eggplant heroes, salads with delicious ingredients like guacamole and lots of cheese. During cold months as we are currently in, soup and sandwich is my go to. I bring my own lunch 1-2X a week. I love breakfast but normally do not have time to enjoy it. I will buy coffee and a roll or bagel. I do store.English Muffins and butter at the workplace.

I like McChickens. They are one of the few plain + cheap ff sandwiches I enjoy.

When I buy hamburgers from McD's, I always "load them up" at home with fresh cut veggies. Huge chunks of tomato, onion, and even green pepper and cucumbers.

They become like salad burgers. tongue sticking out smiley

Speaking of McDonald’s, I’m absolutely baffled that outside of Colorado, the only place I’ve found that sells the Spicy Chicken instead of the McChicken AND is actually spicy, is Thailand’s McDonald’s. Thailand’s McDonald’s and food in general, is just unreasonably spicy, at least for the foreigners like me.

Are 1/4 pounders really still 1/4 lb precooked? Must have a huge amount of fat if so. The one I got was about the size of the regular babyburger.

And when are we all going to start returning our fast foods repeatedly until it comes out looking exactly like the pictures? This needs to be done! Let's start a revolution!

Go to your local Shake Shack. That's literally one of the few fast casual spots that actually tries their best to serve their food like how it looks on the pictures.

I get Chick-Fil-A's spicy chicken sandwich. The chicken quality is so much higher than McD's. I have liked Popeye's spicy fried chicken sandwich the most. But, they are too far away from me to eat regularly. I drive by multiple CFA's daily.

McD's McChickens are NOT that filling. CFA's are for me, so it's worth the extra money and higher quality chicken.

Different flavors, as your know, all chicken sandwiches are not equal, not in just size but also flavor.... McDonald's Spicy Chicken has a great flavor, especially when you're drunk and CFA's are opened during late night bar hours, unfortunately..
