Other way around. Chicken between two donuts.

A glazed donut as a bun seems so gross to eat. Forget a moist towelette, you’re into finger bowl territory.

Had a burger with a donut bun once. It was fine. Can’t say I’ve ever even considered wanting another one.

Had one once in the US and it wasn't great because the chicken was too greasy and hot to hold which is why you need a donut or bun or something on the outside.

New residential development in Taza Park where the home buyers don’t actually own the land only the building, the land is a 99 year lease.

Had a burger with a Jamaican patty in the middle. Delicious!

Perhaps, but being literally across from a convention centre is also a perfect spot for a hotel.

It says it's a 13 storey hotel, so the white framing around the windows seem to span two storeys each. I think your eye assumes those are a single storey, and it looks smaller as a result.

Obviously the convention centre is key, but it's also right on a train station and about 4 blocks from where 17th gets vibrant

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. Not to mention...maybe travelling teams will book it? It seems perfect.

Being next to the convention centre makes sense but isn’t it basically going to cast a huge shadow over a big chunk of the stampede midway at around 4oclock?

After having experience the midway on a hot Stampede day, I would say having some shade is a feature, not a bug.

There are 50+ other weeks during the year to consider.
