Burger Kings are morphing into Burger Delights
Anyone else notice?
There's one right by my house at Northwest Highway and Foster. I went for a chicken sandwich the other day and the change caught me off guard. The pictures in the drive thru weren't very enticing (picture Market Day meets microwave meets cheap digital camera) so I left.
I don't find burgers to be kingly nor delightful, so I'm fairly indifferent to the change. But I am excited that you've introduced me to a nice local Chicago webpage, so I can keep tabs on my old 'hood from Spain.
I love how the signs are so half-ass. The dude is clearly trying to provoke a fight with Burger King. However, monarchies don't usually tolerate this sort of dissent.
What's been freaking me out lately is that Dunkin Donuts is TAKING OVER THE CITY OF CHICAGO. There's one at my Western Blue Line El stop, and if I snag the Division bus eastward instead, there will soon be one inside the Division Blue Line stop. Thank GOD FOR THAT, b/c I know I couldn't wait ten more minutes till I could arrive at one of the at least two of them that are within a three-block radius of my office.
Don't get me wrong, I admit to craving a buttermilk donut once in a while, but can we really be eating this many donuts? No wonder we are so unhealthy.
