favorite Fast food resturant

[pres2032]

[sir_captain]

1. I like to go straight from the heart clinic

where i spend much of the day telling patients to eat healthy food, straight to Wendy's. There's something about the irony that makes it even more delicious.

[pres2032]

2. haha, nice

go you! :P

[Guy Fawkes]

3. Subway: they don't skimp on the cheese. eom

[Reverend_Smitty]

4. I voted for Arby's...

it's something different as opposed to the burger joints. Maybe Roy Rogers second...there's something about that resturant that reminds me of the Jersey Turnpike

[pres2032]

5. haha, that's funny

considering i've only ever gone to Roy Rogers on the NJ turnpike.

[Reverend_Smitty]

9. I think they have them on the Parkway as well...

When I was younger, Roy's were everywhere now you can only find them at rest stops

[Neoma]

6. you also forgot sonic

[tridim]

7. Sonic.. By far.

[nothingshocksmeanymore]

8. Favorite size needle to stick in my eye

hate em all...fortunately we have In-n-Out here in Cali

[El Fuego]

10. Chick-Fil-A

[punpirate]

11. Other=none n/t

[laura888]

Chipotle

Fast, healthy (if you skip the cheese and sour cream) food. Fairly inexpensive.

[Flaxbee]

14. Taco Bell and Chipotle!

nt

[MissMarple]

48. Chipotle!!!

:bounce:

[tishaLA]

12. In-and-Out

Delicous

[fishwax]

21. I'll second that

In n out is delicious.

[JAbuchan08]

13. Good Times! Good Times! Good Times!

delicious! delicious! delicious!

[u4ic]

15. Harvey's

LOOOVE those pickles!

[auntAgonist]

42. yes! Harvey's is by far the BEST

can't get it here in Michigan. We always make it a point to stop at Harvey's when we visit my family in Ontario. The ORIGINAL Harvey's is in Waterloo on King street @ Weber, maybe you know that though (?).

Harvey's makes a hamburger, a beautiful thing :)

[achtung_circus]

45. 1959- the first Harvey's is opened by Rick Mauran

in Richmond Hill, ON.

"Long Live the Grill" TM

I love their T-Shirts

MEAT
FIRE
GOOD

although the seasoned fries suck, their burgers are the best.

[auntAgonist]

47. somebody LIED to me

:( I was always under the impression that the Original Harvey's was in Waterloo Ontario.

thanks ..

now I'm crushed, informed but crushed :)

:hi:

[u4ic]

49. I thought the original Harvey's was in Long Branch?

Aha...just checked. We're both wrong :-)

The original was in Richmond Hill, and it's still open today. http://www.harveys.ca/eng/site.php

I can't even think of any burger that comes close to Harvey's. :9

[Kellanved]

16. Saray Döner

:P

[Kali]

19. ha

I recognized the Turkish fast food from Germany.

[Kellanved]

25. haha

I can just go outside and buy some :P

[Kali]

26. can you get pida?

with mushrooms? kebap? What am I saying? You can get SCHNITZEL!!!

But you can't get real Sonoran Mexican food. ha!

[Kellanved]

29. 'course

And actually there is a quite acceptable Mexican Restaurant within walking distance.
Not quite as I would expect it stateside, but almost there.

[Kali]

33. No Kidding?

yeah, I actually went to a Mexican restaurant in Japan when I was a kid, and this year my Father found one in, are you ready for this? Russia - an not Moscow either, somewhere out in freaking Siberia!

[Kellanved]

39. no kidding

Hardly a block without a Mexican Restaurant. About half of them are run by actual Mexicans; about one tenth of them are acceptable.
So far I have found two in the city, which can be considered "Good".

[NV Whino]

17. Other--Taco Bell

It's about the only fast food restaurant I hit. Just something about the combination of flavors in the original crunchy tacos. Seldom order anything else.

[Kali]

22. xtra onions

well, not extra cuz they don't come with them normally, but you know what I mean. Yeah almost healthy, but with enough junk food flavor.

[magnolia]

18. Bullets

I don't know if they are all over but we have them in Richmond.

The hamburgers are fantastic. They aren't those uniform-in-size frozen gray patties. It's real meat, char grilled and OH SO DELICIOUS!

[Mojambo]

20. I kinda dig Arby's and they are supposedly very blue. n/t

[Awsi Dooger]

36. I despise cheese, so Burger King is far superior to McDonald's or Wendy's

McDonalds insists on cheese on virtually every burger. If you order without, it takes forever for them to make it and you still pay the damn price that includes cheese. Wendy's, at least my local one, plasters the disgusting yellow crap on my singles even when I beg them not to. They think it's some sort of bonus.

Whoppers dominate. Whenever I stray from Burger King for a while, I wonder what the hell I was thinking once I dig into a Whopper, or three, again.

However, if you include Subway as fast food then there's no question that's my choice. It's the only quickie joint that makes me feel better and healthier departing than arriving. I love the footlong turkey breast with gobs of veggies and the honey mustard. Plus I can watch them smack in front of me and make sure they don't include the gruesome cheese, unlike pathetic Wendy's.

[Longgrain]

23. I'm probably one of the only people here who prefers Burger King

to McDonald or Wendy's...but then again I'm also weird.

[Kali]

27. Burger King is ok for the first couple bites

but then it kinda starts to gag. Around here they have some pretty good greasy/crispy tacos that aren't bad if you need a fix.

[lpbk2713]

24. I like Hardy's F/Fries.

Wendy's after that.

[toddzilla]

28. popeyes chicken or rally's (checkers)

wish we had an in-n-out burger.

[Kali]

30. Nobody mentioned Jack in the Crack

they actually have decent onion rings. And for variety, they have pretty big menu, although I tend to stick to the regular 2 for a buck tacos. They also have the best commercials (or at least used to - Jack running around doing stuff - I don't know, don't have tv anymore, I know they still have antenna balls???)

[Skittles]

31. Popeyes is the only one I get cravings for

those damn biscuits.......*SLURP*

[pres2032]

34. hm, don't know the Jim Robinson resturant

where's that located?

[bearfan454]

35. Taco Cabana

Mmmmmm

[Floogeldy]

37. I thought all of the Roy Rogers were closed?

Where are they?

[Cuban_Liberal]

38. Sonic, hands down.

Variety, speed, price, service, etc. .

[Celeborn Skywalker]

58. Sonic is great, isn't it?

I worked there for a couple of years and they paid, by far, the highest hourly wage out of all the fast food places in our area, which was $7.50 where I live. It doesn't sound like much, but when every other place in town is paying $5.15, you're grateful for that extra $2.35.

It's also a VERY blue company.

[AngryAmish]

40. Culver's is the finest fast food

For a big chain. In Chicagoland, there is a chain called Portillo's that is better.

[Telly Savalas]

55. Thank God they don't have Culver's here in Toronto...

otherwise I'd weigh about 25 pounds more than I do now.

That's some yummy food.

[da_chimperor]

41. In-N-Out burger or Togos

Both kick ass.

[ScreamingMeemie]

43. Nino's Pita to Go....Love them, love them, love them...

Although he is always trying to get us to franchise with him. :hi:

[auntAgonist]

44. Swiss Chalet Chicken

Not really 'fast' food, but it is a chain and it's the BEST.

[u4ic]

50. Ooooh, yes!!

You've got great taste in food! ;)

[auntAgonist]

53. well thank you!

I MISS swiss chalet, if I had the money I'd open a SC restaurant here in MI!!!!
did I tell you how much I really really MISS swiss chalet?

the dipping sauce took some getting used to , but then it's almost addictive ...

ohhhhhhh man .....


swiss chalet chicken, chips, sauce ... and oh .. lets not forget the COLD LEMON SOUP they serve at the end of the meal!!!!!!!


:hi:

[u4ic]

62. Since Harvey's and Swiss Chalet

are both owned by the same company, how about opening them both??!!!

Some of the supermarkets now carry the dipping sauce...it's powdered, not quite as good as the restaurant's, but still an acceptable substitute.

I'd miss a lot of Canadian foods if I left...the biggest would be Crispy Crunches. I love those! (and Harvey's pickles)

:hi:

[auntAgonist]

65. I miss smarties!

birds custard poweder, HP sauce, yellow split peas, and yes crispy crunches. MOST of all ... NOAH Martin Summer Sausage. :sigh:

love noah martin's summer sausage. ( I am from Elmira ) I miss all the fresh produce sold at mennonite farms.

[Maddy McCall]

46. Sonic and Quiznos are the best. Whataburger is the worst.

[DawgHouse]

56. Wish I'd known about Whataburger

I went there last night for the first time. I was a little disappointed after all the hype.

[Hell in a Handbasket]

61. sonic is a longtime favorite, i wish they were more spread out.

i havent seen any north of richmond.

[bigwillq]

51. Duchess

We have them here in CT. I am not sure if they're in other states

[Kat45]

52. Chik-fil-a

I could go for one of their chicken sandwiches and a side of carrot-raisin salad right about now. :9

[DawgHouse]

54. Yummy, Sonic!

[Redstone]

57. La Belle Province...

Poutine, the coronary in a bowl; Michigan burgers and dogs..or for something completely different, the teeny burgers at Dic-Ann's (no, they're nothing like White Castle).

That's when on vacation in Quebec. Here, it would be Sonic if there was one closer than 400 miles from where I live. They're driving me nuts by advertising on the television in New England, when the closest one is in Ohio or Virginia. WHY, WHY DO THEY TORTURE ME LIKE THAT???

Redstone

[DODI]

59. Steak N Shake

[Hell in a Handbasket]

60. shall we define fast food as having a drive-thru?

if we may, then it's arby's. if not, chipotle.

[TheMightyFavog]

63. Erbert and Gerbert's

Creative names for really good sandwiches.

[SmileyBoy]

64. Quizno's

The food of the gods. *droooooolllll*
