chic fil a hype?

Popeyes?

me either


I never go there

like other fast food

Popeye's? FFS that place started out as cheap alternative but somewhere along the line they figured they were upscale. The menu didn't change but their prices did - before things spiked the last few years

Popeye's is supposed to be cajun(ish) fried chicken and sides. It's okay.  Agree with GR that their "spicy" isn't very spicy.

They must not pay as well as other fast food places though, because around here at least, their workers are consistently less accurate, and less pleasant, than everywhere else.  Polar opposite to the Chik fil A experience, as CD noted above.

I like cajun spicy, but not headed to Popeye's

I'm guessing it's pretty bland fried food and not very good

Maybe just a bad employee who slapped it together. The limited times I've had grub there it was decent bordering damn good
Granted it's only the locations around MSP, but I've gotten them from multiple places in multiple formats (drive thru, sit down, and Coffman Union hot case). Every one of them has been soggy and tasteless.

Not a fan of CFA for just about anything other than their breakfast chicken biscuit, which is fantastic.

We had lunch at a place called "The Office Bar" in a new building (that now houses Google).  I think nearly everyone else there works for google, a lot of them had the same kind of headphone on their head.  We both had their poke bowl, which was decent.

I prefer dining out at lunch to dinner, my unpopular opinion of the day.

Kosher salt is desiged to exsanguinate meat to meet Jewish dietary guildelines.  It really has no other practical use.

Sea salt is pretty much just salt, with a few impurities in it, not enough to alter any flavors really.  My wife likes it, I think it's a waste of $$.

Grinding salt is a waste of time and effort.

Grinding pepper isn't.

One point that can't be debated "SEINFELD" SUCKED and while we're at it "FRIENDS"was the worst

A guy at work said I should watch Seinfeld, and I did a couple episodes, didn't get it at all.  Later I watched some reruns and started to somewhat like it, I'd watch when "bored" (and not posting here).  More recently, I will flip to some rerun and watch 5 monutes and think "Meh".  Some aspects were quite good, many were not, kind of like the old SNL when some things were actually funny and clever.

The main rerun the wife and I like is Law and Order.

I've gotten to where I just can't and won't watch reruns of anything.  Not enough time in my day.  If I'm going to spend time watching television, then it has to be something new.

We don't watch much, or I don't anyway, she watches a fair bit on her own.  I may watch while I'm fixing dinner or something.

I watch the Braves often as not, and they have some very lengthy rather pointless pregame show.
