Yes. So much this. Just one more time. I think places should have to notify the public when they are closing so you can have that final time. I miss Willys so much

Speaking about fried chicken, anyone here have the fried chicken in Korean restaurants? Like Olive Chicken and Yum Yum? I think they are really good, much better than KFC and even Chicken on The Way (sans the basement part...)

Back on topic, so is the Popeye's Chicken opened yet on 17 Ave SE or are they just renovating the place right now?

I agree about the Korean chicken, except that they have a lot of batter/breading on them, sometimes I want something without so much extra on it, for that either Chicken on the Way or Nando's.

Last I saw they were still renovating (or didn't even look like they'd started renovating, just had everything fenced off) but that was probably a week ago.

I can't find any mention of it on the Interwebs, if you find it post here.

Hey taking two lanes to wait to turn left is safer, better safe than sorry!

Honestly I'd only want a JIBS is for the ultimate breakfast sandwich. They serve breakfast all day.

I was really really bummed that Carl's Jr. opened and didn't serve breakfast!

No. Everything at Jack in the Box is good! The Buttery Jack is exquisite.

You'll have to take your Mucho Burrito to 7-11 for your pump cheese.

If In and Out Burger ever opens in Canada then it would be like Carl's, jr; an empty shell of what it is in the United States.

If by right you mean its collective ass will be clearing its contents within an hour of eating.

I have a tough time deciding which is better between In N Out and Shake Shack.
In N Out is good for value, quality, and taste. Plus the line ups are nowhere near as long as Shake Shack's.

Shake Shack's burgers and fries tastes better though, especially with their fried stuffed portabello mushroom (shack stack) burger. Their cheese sauce for their crinkle cut fries are awesome too. I haven't tried their shakes but I've heard they're awesome.

Has anyone been to Burger's Priest in Toronto and Edmonton? They are the closest to Shake Shack in my opinion. Delicious burgers!

I tried Burger Priest on a recent trip to Toronto and it was a damn fine burger. Thank god we don't have one in Calgary within walking distance of the office. I'd be there weekly.

The Ongoing Super Mega Fast Food Thread, thank you for making me crave grease every time I load up CP this past week. I know Smashburger has it detractors but I'm still loyal. Winter is coming, and the only thing that can keep us safe and warm is fried chicken and burgers.
