When it comes to take-away/fast food, I’m easy to please. Although I like to portray the image of eating healthy and all the rest, there are times where it is simply more convenient to grab something on the go.
I’ve gone through phases throughout my adult years of avoiding or frequenting fast food chains. I have my favourite menu items for the typical fast food outlets. I’d like to share my choices with you.
McDonalds: The grand angus burger, their deluxe chicken burgers and chicken nuggets. Big mac from time to time is good also.
Hungry Jacks: Whopper with cheese, grilled chicken burger.
KFC: Toasted traditional twister, the best thing offered there since 1999 (when I first became acquainted with them).
Subway: A foot long roasted chicken sub with all the salads, minus jalapeños and onions, and (ironically) with sweet onion sauce
Local Take-away: Chicken schnitzel burger, chips with either gravy or chicken salt.
Ali Baba: Beef kebab with homus, lettuce, tomato, tabouli. No other sauce.
Nandos: Chicken supreme wrap with corn cobs.
Oporto: Double chicken burger, no chilli sauce.
Kingsleys chicken: Either the traditional chicken burger with lettuce, tomato and mayo or skinless chicken breast and gravy sub.
Asian food: Spring rolls, fried rice, any beef or chicken menu item.
Turkish restaurants: Pretty much anything, but Turkish pizza, zucchini puffs and kofte are my favourites.
Pizza chain: Supreme or vegetarian. Sometimes pepperoni is good too.
So those are my options when it’s late and I’m hungry and no where else is open. Another thing I noticed recently: You know you’ve become an adult when you look forward to the gherkins in your big mac or cheese burger.
