    Did I miss the part that was saying Popeye's was going to be sold at Tim Horton's locations?

    P.S. I love whoppers. I think they're delicious.

    It's so hit and miss, like most burgers.

    A big mac can be a mind-altering experience, or it can be a disgusting slime fest that you take one bite out of and throw in the garbage.

    A carl's jr famous star with cheese can make me jizz my pants... or it can be a sloppy mess that makes me want to throwup just looking at it.

    I'm about 1/4 for whopper satisfaction. Very hit or miss.

    Popeye's Chicken in Calgary does not taste the same as what I have had in US. Too bland.

    I tried Mary Brown's chicken for the first time the other day, now we can talk chicken.

    City doesn't approve drive thrus anymore. 17 ave is in revitalization, that's the only reason they let that popeyes as a drive thru.

    EDIT: Don't approve drive thrus in residential based areas as far as I know. Larger commercial spaces (ie deerfoot city) still get approved.

    I can't believe people like Mary Brown's so much. It's so unremarkable.

    The obsession with increased density has pretty much killed off all new drive thrus. They blocked McDonalds from opening up in Lakeview because they wanted to include a drive thru. I think there is also a ban on new drive thrus within 10-15 blocks of Chinook LRT.

    Popeye's has a drive thru because they just took over an existing building, wasn't it a Taco Bell before?

    One opened up in Lethbridge a few months ago, and it seemed people never shut up about it. So after the umpteenth memo, I tried the chicken. My only thought of it was, where's the flavor"?

    I appreciate that we have a california dreamer here, but how quickly will it turn to a nightmare when short-shorts and rollerskates end up being some beefer wearing sorel boots.

    Tried Popeye's with the fam, it was ok. I've had it in New Orleans and Vegas and it don't think it was as good. Also, the wife saw a lady shooting up in the bathroom, I don't think she's going to want to go back to that location.

    Heard the Evanston location was supposed to open today. Can anyone confirm that it actually opened?
