Canadian Retail Thread

[niwell]

Popeyes is legitimately good, and not just from a fast food standpoint. Yes, there is better fried chicken out there at some independent places but I haven't had anything close at the price point. I've seen extremely incredulous people turned around on this too. There's a reason local in New Orleans still love Popeyes, despite the overwhelming amount of good food in that city.

I mean, I still wouldn't line up for it (or almost any food), but doing so is far from a Canadian phenomenon.

Also, am I the only one who finds Cora to be pretty underwhelming / overpriced? I remember it being better in Ottawa during the early 2000s but last time I went was quite disappointed. Plenty of local breakfast places that are better and cheaper. Maybe it's due to growing up in Western Canada but I am not too fussed about having fake syrup for certain types of breakfast (greasy, diner) - it's very much a time and place kinda thing to me.
