I miss Fuddruckers and doubt anything will ever fill that hole in my heart.

It would probably be Cane’s, because I eat there a fair amount and it’s like B-tier fried chicken for an okay price. If we wanna go international, then it’s Kyochon. It’s a Korean Fried Chicken chain with 1 location in America and a bunch in Korea

Second would either be McDonalds or Dairy Queen for their McFlurry/blizzard or their super artificial ice cream. Honestly, I know there is better ice cream, but I have an Anton Ego flashback (from Ratatouille) whenever I take a bite/lick of ice cream and am reminded of the trips I took with my mom when we walked over to Dairy Queen together

I go to canes for their toast but their chicken is also very good. Honestly I like thier chicken more than any other place other than Chick-fil-A.

Cane’s! Maybe it’s just nostalgia for me, but in College (OSU) went to Cane’s far too often on High Street.

The chicken is way better than other fast food places, fries are a carrier for the sauce and the toast is pretty good.

The McDonalds near me hasn’t had ice cream in a year. I reported them to corporate and they had ice cream again for like two weeks until they claimed their machine was broke again

There’s still some around, but not nearly as many as there were. The one local to me closed and the nearest remaining one is like 20 miles away.

The chipotle/Qdoba near me has gone way too downhill in the past few years for me. The burritos used to be huge, now they’re the size of a small potato. Also 50% of the time they mess up my order and I don’t realize until I get home and open it up.

Din Tai Fung and Kizuki Ramen are my top chains.

I always catch myself about to abbreviate it DTF, and then I type out the entire name.

Chain?

I mean, sure the top restaurants on my list aren’t chains, but if we’re gonna restrict it, I’ll say Macdonald’s. It saved my ass at 2am once while traveling, that’s worth a lot.

McD is just there for you when you need it, and you know what to expect. I end up there way more than I should due to my work taking me on the roads, after a while you learn to game the menu a bit and order just enough that you’ve eaten, without indulging.

In my country the other options when on the road are gas stations which aren’t more nutritive nor cheaper, or snack-bars with deep fried stuff.

The best is if I can hit it before 11am then I can get the breakfast things which are a good portion and cheaper than the lunch options.
