Hi Dave,

 DD> and heading for home. Saves stopping at the cashier and the order is
 DD> ready before I get to the delivery window.

 RH> That would be handy if you used it regularly. We're irregular enough at
 RH> fast food places that it probably wouldn't do us any good. A CFA app,
 RH> maybe. Went by our regular CFA after getting back in town from Alaska

 DD> In my NSHO fast food should also be convenient. Chick Filly seems to
 DD> be in no way convenient.

They need to build more outlets--it's so popular that the existing
stores can't hardly keep up with the demand.


 DD> Several things at play here ... I'm not a fan of Chick Filly, even if
 DD> I could order ahead on-line or in an app I'd still have to wait for
 DD> the line to creep forward. And the CFA store is about as far from me
 DD> as it can be and still be in the same city. Within a few blocks I have
 DD> McDonald's, a Herdee's, and a Freddies Frozen Custard & Burgers in a
 DD> little cluster. A little further out I have Popeyes, Wendy's, Taco
 DD> Bell, Burger Whop, Arbee's, Culver's, and several wing-ding places,
 DD> as well as a Subway, Jimmy John's, Chipotle, and a Panda Express for
 DD> Chinese Fats Food.

 DD> Popeyes has recently added a "blackened" chicken sandwich to their
 DD> menu. I snagged one (spicy) on my way home from work yesterday. With
 DD> the side of mash w/Cajun gravy I didn't have anything for supper
 DD> except a small
 DD> tub (5 1/2 oz) of Chobani active culture yoghurt w/cherries.

 RH> Pays your money, takes your choice. We have quite a few (but not all)
 RH> of those, but scattered thru the town. Hardees closed up shop a couple
 RH> of years ago and nobody has taken over their building.

 DD> I've got five Hardee's scattered around town. The one closest to being
 DD> in the center of town is open 24/7. And one is known as the "Rock 'n'
 DD> Roll" Hardee's. It has a motorcycle on display in the store, a band
 DD> shell in a corner of the (extra-large) parking lot for live music
 DD> shows and to act as a stage for Cruise-Ins and car shows. The Route 66
 DD> Mother Road Festival starts one of their "cruise" events from that
 DD> Hardee's and it's a stop on Hot Rod Magazine's tours. It's also
 DD> physically the largest of the local fats food joints.

Wouldn't have worked in WF; the Hardee's was smack in the middle of the
old down town area. Not enough room for much of a parking lot, let alone
a stage for car shows.
