KFC is the one I go to the most to be honest but I voted for Burger King at the time as i'd had it for the first time in proper years at the time of voting and the burger was nice as fuck. It's rare I go there though as there isn't one around here. A new one opened in Morecambe(not too far away) about a year ago but I've only been once. @RandoEFC There is now a Burger king in Morecambe mate(there used to be one there over a decade ago before it shut) and if you was at Uni in Lancaster now, then you wouldn't have been too far from one. I also remember when there used to be one in Lancaster and before that it was a Mr Wimpy, although it never lasted long, unlike McDonalds and KFC, which have always been there. Speaking of Lancaster Uni, I went there the other month on the way home from fishing as they sell hot food at the spar on their campus and I never realised just how much is up there now. There is even a Tacos and you don't get any of them around here usually. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In town Chesters Chicken was right next to where I lived in second year and while the quality was comedically poor, it was still a frequent haunt of mine.

The chippy on the same road as Chesters is nice, but expensive for a chippy, unless of course you went to @SirBalon's, which makes it cheap in comparison . It used to taste a lot nicer though and has changed if you ask me. The fish from there is lovely. As for burgers, Bill's burgers across from Mcdonald's in town do a nice burger.

Inverted 1,776 Posted September 23, 2017 Share Posted September 23, 2017 Five Guys is dynamite but tbh with the price I don't see it as the same as the cheaper places. More like a special treat than a convenience stop - plus in Glasgow we only have a few. One is in the city centre and two are in shopping centres way way on the outskirts. For a cheap bite KFC or Burger King are miles ahead of McD's. In the U.K. at least; I've had decent McDonalds abroad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never had one myself so thinking of trying it soon. the one I get from near me was not up to scratch. Thought I'd try something different from Dominos and opted for Papa John's. Probably won't do so again. Dominos is more expensive but you get more choice and the standard is much better. You get what you pay for, as they say.

Absolutely brilliant. If you come around one day, I'll take you to my favourite joint, of course every argues about which place is the best, but I'm certain my taste is superior because I didn't 'grow up' eating any sort of Chicago pizza. So I don't feel any nostalgia for it. Chicago also does an oft overlooked 'superthin' pizza which is equally great. It's a brilliant food city, because the weather is miserable and it's in the fattest part of the country. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the only thing that will stop that is if I get myself in a relationship between now and January - and let's face it, that's highly unlikely.

Subscriber nudge+ 15,325 Posted June 10, 2018 Subscriber Share Posted June 10, 2018 Pizza for me has to have thin crisp crust, I prefer it that way... That said, I would still eat most other sorts because pizza is life Domino's must be one of the worst pizza I've ever eaten, followed by Pizza Hut, both were awful.

What would be the type of food of those roadside food stalls? Local cuisine? I'm searching for an avenue in the sense of Pakistan and the immediate surrounding region also being "Americanised" like Europe was in a large scale over two decades ago.

The usual fast food plus some local variations and also local cuisines as you've said. But they are more local snacks than cuisines. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
