Best fast food restaurant...Chick-Fil-A?

[Q729]

Been a while since I had some Chic Fil A. This thread made me go there for lunch yesterday. Regular chicken sandwich, small fries and a pack of Polynesian sauce. Should've got some sweet tea, though.

The wife swears by Panera although she claims it's not fast-food but a restaurant. Google disagrees.

Panera has awesome breads. It's known as the St. Louis Bread Company where I live.

I found fast food nirvana.
I’m in DFW for the week and stumbled across Whataburger.
Absolutely incredible.
I’m hooked.

Visited Dallas last June it is a good solid burger. Nuttin crazy but good.

I ate at a Chik-fil-A express. It sucked. It was bland and dry. Mickey Ds has better nuggets because they have better batter dipped coating. I'd take just about any other local fast food joint over That place.

I loved Roy Rogers back in the day. That place ruled. Roast beef sandwiches and fried chicken at the same joint. It was quality food.

Right now I prefer Arby's over them all. Popeye is a close second....but my buddies and I all got sick on Popeyes once. It is hard to forget that, but their chicken doesn't make me feel bloated like KFC does.

The one fast food I consistently love is breakfast sandwiches. McDonald's, or Burger King. Biscuit or Croissants. Love them both. I make even better with bagels and scrapple as the meat.

Steak egg & cheese bagel from McD.
There is no substitute .

I remember back in the late 90s, Taco Bell first came out with breakfast burritos. They were fat as fuck. Loaded with sausage, egg, cheese, and little tater tots. Then they stopped for about a year and retooled the menu, and it was much worse.

I remember Burger King had a Croisantwich breakfast item, made from an ACTUAL croissant. Then one day I ordered it and it came on a hamburger bun SHAPED like a croissant. WTF? What kind of mouth breather do they think I am?? Like my taste buds will be fooled because of the look of something?!

Someone needs to get smacked.

:rant:No buttery, flakey texture and taste?!!

Yes. I am doing donuts in your parking lot to protest!! :lifting:

:coach:Let that be a lesson to you!!!

....croissant shaped hamburger bun.......

Yup... they are great hamburgers!

We're fortunate here to have a bunch of very good fast food burger joints.

Man, that brings back memories!

RR was soooo good... I loved the Double R Bar Burger (burger with ham and cheese on top).

And, you're right... the chicken was really good too!

And the Roast Beef was served rare.
Man I loved that place too.
RR horseradish sauce was killer.
We have 5 guys in NJ, pretty good.
Impressed with Whataburger. Had the chicken fajita taco and it was off the hook too

Yeah.. used to go to the one on Route 10 in East Hanover.
Really, everything on that menu was good!

The thing about Whataburger is that they come out with specialty burgers every once in a while. Like, right now, I think they're offering Mushroom Swiss burgers... that is not on their normal menu. When they trot out their "Thick-and-Hearty A-1" burger (2 patties, bacon, grilled onions and A-1 sauce), I gots to have it!

Enjoy your stay in BigD... if I can be of any help, PM me.

Carl’s Jr. for me. Expensive but if I’m going fast food it’s worth it. I like Wing Stop too but not exactly fast because its cooked to order. Ticks me off KFC stopped making wings.

Their back now, called "scramblers". And they are amazing.

Plus they serve it with crack...I mean their nacho cheese sauce.

Raising Canes are around the columbus ohio area. they serve well made chicken fingers from never frozen chicken. they're very good as is the sauce they serve. sides are good, a little small, but still good. my wife loves their food so when fast food comes into play for dinner, that's pretty much where we go.

KFC stopped making wings? They used to have the grilled wings which were great but the spicy hot wings are pretty good and last I checked they still had
