Decided to try to stop by Chik Fil A tonight. Still lined up like crazy so we noped out of there. I guess maybe another month for the craze to die off more?

Ha, I had the same idea last night...and I guess so did everyone else. I think the trick is to try on a Sunday, I hear it's much quieter.

I'm just trying to get a gift card for my daughters for Christmas. Hopefully they are available elsewhere too, but haven't seen one yet.

Gift cards are great. I want to get one thats completely useless like Greyhound tickets or a card to Radio Shack.

How they survive is questionable and I wouldn't be surprised if they are just waiting out their current lease.

We'll I'm not surprised to see that the burger place has closed down this weekend. Their stall is boarded up today in the food court.

Probably because the line up waiting for food was always longer than the one buying the food. Was pretty good but man was it slow.

Powerplay is Southcentre did not open yesterday due to circumstances beyond their control. No new date Ive seen yet.

We talked about the Tavern Collective going where the Shark Club used to be in the barren wasteland of Deerfoot Meadows. It looks like it’s open now. https://www.avenuecalgary.com/restau...rfoot-meadows/

Drove by the Macleod location today around 11 (it opens at 1030), and the line was still reasonable, so popped in. Sandwich tasted pretty much like it did in the US (which is not always the case with Canadian versions of US chains), so I left a satisfied customer.

I can respect that. There is an intimate bond between man and his chicken.

Carry on sir.

A Church's Texas Chicken is opening Silverado. It's going into part of a former BMO branch that closed during Covid. Right across from an Anytime Fitness, lol.
