I miss Rax. It was a good Arbys alternative. They used to have locations all over town, but they been gone from here for years. They had pretty good potato skins and milkshakes too.

Unless it's 3am and a lobby is closed I am never going through any drive through ever.

I don't think I've ever heard this sentiment before.

Yeah, I always go inside unless the lobby is closed. I prefer my food hot, and if a FF place has a lobby I don't want to be in I pretty much don't want to eat their food anyway.

To be fair, I generally find the *****-***-* (The restaurant that must not be mentioned on Sunday) drive-thru to be tolerable. But then again, I still only use it when they offer those drive-thru free receipt day deals. (I love free food)

Hanging out at McDonald's all day, leeching wi-fi and watching football. Had 10 mcnuggets for $1.99 and a couple of hot-n-spicy mcchickens for lunch; six hours later used receipt survey for the bogo quarter pounders. Sure, I'm gonna **** blood tomorrow, but I got great value!

Panic swerved into Taco Bell last night and got a couple Meximelts. They were excellent. I don't know what it is about those things, it's like the employees care more when they make them. I guess that's what reflected in their bizarre price.

Also went to taco bell today. Quesarito and fries supreme awesome as usual ($2) grillers were not good at all. They do have a flavour here I didn't see mentioned before.. 5 layer dip. Beans, guac, salsa, cheese, sour cream. Not good at all.

Interesting things can happen at truck stops. That might be another thread to start.

It's nachos supreme with fries instead of nachos, pretty awesome. Pretty much the only thing Canada is better at fast food wise.

re: Rax

Never knew they were known for roast beef. I always used to eat their buffet and nothing else. ofc that was many, many years ago before they closed down like almost all of their locations.
