Same here. Probably the most interesting one for me was in Turkey. The meat patties were more like what you would get at donair place. It was really good. They also had croquettes and onion rings, as well as really fancy deserts. The thing that stood out even more than the food was how clean it was. Everything was shiny and no dirt anywhere. They had staff constantly cleaning the restaurant and even had a guy standing guard with a broom and dust pan who would walk up and immediately sweep up any fries that fall on the ground. There must have been 30 people working in the place.
Croatia's McDonald's was interesting as well because it had like 10 different salad options, many different chicken options (lemon chicken for one), and breakfast sandwiches with pork belly instead of bacon that we are used to. They also had croquettes and huge variety of dipping sauces.
I seem to recall seeing deep fried prawns at a McDonald's somewhere in Europe as well, Amsterdam maybe? I totally forget where it was.
