Popeye's Chicken Opening Up In Calgary

[flipstah]

Nando's is still busy because it's good. Especially post-renovations.

Drove by the other day and it looks really nice inside now. Sure doesn't look like a old pizza hut anymore.

recently ate there. Good flavor, terrible value. $9 sandwich consisted of mostly bread and a tiny and thin 2"x2" piece of chicken. The $6 "premium" side should have been more like $3. They were out of many things that we wanted to order for some reason (umm make more?) Their ordering system felt like it added nothing but chaos. Taste was good, everything else about this place kinda sucked.

Just saw on Facebook this morning, they won't be opening today

I love how they said unforeseen circumstances when it's been evident that it wasn't going to be complete by today for quite some time.

The whole pr team that runs that page should be cleared out. There's nothing worse than someone teasing "coming soon" without any real benchmarks or milestones.

Wish I could get away with that in my job.

Krispy Kreme all over again

Was in Edmonton today. Went to popeyes. Split a 4pc meal with the woman. Had mash potato and slaw.

Chicken was juicy, ordered the spicy. Wasn't very spicy but had decent flavour. Skin was crisp. Breading was similar to Mary browns. The sides were not great. Mash is definitely powdered potato. Had no consistency. Slaw was decent. The biscuit is so not as good as people say.

Portions were on par with KFC.

Overall I will likely not go again for a long time. No real reason to wait in line for it. Not worth it.

Went at the end of lunch and it was still a 20 min wait.

Drove by it on my way home today and they didn't seem that far off from being open. I had to do a double-take because it looked like it was.
