There's an Arby's on Aramingo Ave in Port Richmond and a Checkers on the Boulevard in Northeast Philadelphia, neither of which are a bad area at all, but the latter is pretty out of the way from downtown.

You Americans have fantastic places to eat at. In my town we have Subway, Dominos, McDonalds and a load of crap cafes and Indian takeaways.

freedom fries tho

[SGT RJ]

Should we be reviewing the new trend in North American fast food, which seems to be people eating?

Had a cheese dog and Cajun fries with Lime diet coke at 5 Guys for lunch. Outstanding.

I like their soft tacos (59cents) and chicken tacos (99cents) also they have good french fries and their del inferno sauce is really hot and good for fast food, makes taco bell fire sauce taste like catsup

I was at my local Chick-fil-a today to take advantage of their drive-thru promo. Whatever you buy, you can get again for free at a later time in the month. While chatting with the cashier, he told me that someone ordered $150 worth of food a little earlier.

The story reminded me of ZBThortons post... LOL.

There are plenty of English and Irish pubs that sell sausage rolls, it doesn't necessarily have to be a super UK bar, even a run of the mill one might have them on the menu. You can definitely get them imported because an Australian expat group I know gets sausage rolls and meat pies every year for Australia day and they get some sort of authentic Australian brand. There are quite a few different places that ship them that I've found on Google, for example this site sells lots of Australian pies and sausage rolls: http://www.australianbakerycafe.com

Australians usually seem to eat the sausage rolls with ketchup (which they call tomato sauce) and the English and Irish seem to use brown sauce (HP is the most popular brand, it's like A1 but but quite as spicy, personally I prefer HP) or a hot mustard like Colman's.

It's quite easy to make sausage rolls yourself and you can find plenty of recipes on the internets. Brown some sausage links, brush puff pastry with egg and maybe some worcestershire sauce or Colman's mustard. Roll the sausage link in puff pastry, bake for a bit, and there you go. Getting authentic English or Irish bangers is probably the trickiest part but there are plenty of places you can mail order them, and actually Costco sold pretty decent Irish bangers a few months back but that may have just been for St Patrick's Day.

I second the chicken tacos
The crinkle fries arent bad
And the egg and cheese burrito is simple, but good.

Cheap and simple bean burritos and french fries for me and maybe a taco.
