Someday I am going to try to their food....really just waiting for the first time I drive by and there are not 40 cars in line.
Ugh, no. Their biscuits are far worse than even Mickey Ds and Burger King. Nowhere near the quality of Hardees or Bojangles biscuits which are Southern sit down restaurant quality.
That and there typically is like freakin four of them in the box. Major scam.The waffle fries are good, but you have to request they're cooked "well done".
No. He writes a lot, I’ll give him that.I consider Tribe's food opinions to be sacrosanct.
I think you Tallahassee folks must have a shitty CFA.That and there typically is like freakin four of them in the box. Major scam.

Sorry, Tribe.
I tease him but he’s a good dude.He has the best words.

I'm surprised he doesn't write for Food & Wine or something.
We're not so different, you and I.School lunch chicken patty on a bun > CFA.
I love Bojangles and agree that their chicken is far superior, but CFA can handle about 30 times the orders of the normal Bojangles. Slow as hell most of the time.In terms of the quality of the food I agree with you. In their marquee food item (the chicken sandwich), Popeyes, Bojangles and Aussie Grill blows them away. Even KFC is better. Sure, CFA chicken sandwiches beats all of the hamburger first fast food places (Mickey D, Burger King, Wendy’s, Whataburger, Sonic, etc…), but is that really a big accomplishment?
Where CFA is great is the customer service, they are probably the quickest, most efficient and friendliest min wage employees out there. They can handle five times the orders of an equivalent Mickey Ds or even Bojangles or Popeyes. And the sauces are really good, the original sauce and Polynesian in particular.
But the actual chicken? Usually not very crispy and usually a little mealy. Plus overly sweetened from their sweet pickle brine. I’m not touching a CFA strip or nugget without sauce. Meanwhile Bojangles, Popeyes, Raising Cane’s, Aussie Grills, Guthries, Foosacklys and even KFC have nuggets and strips that do not require sauce.
For someone with the candle power to be an MD, i expected more. The spicy deluxe is all you can ask for in a drive through chicken sandy.We're not so different, you and I.
CFA is so unremarkablely mediocre. I truly don't understand the love.
I honestly could not tell you the last time I had a drive through chicken sandwich. If I'm having a fried chicken sandwich, it's going to be a buffalo chicken sandwich served with an ice cold beer at a local establishment.For someone with the candle power to be an MD, i expected more.

Living in the suburbs with three kids, we hit CFA pretty regularly.I honestly could not tell you the last time I had a drive through chicken sandwich. If I'm having a fried chicken sandwich, it's going to be a buffalo chicken sandwich served with an ice cold beer at a local establishment.
Tip-the Iowa Tap Room makes a hell of a buffalo chicken sandwich.
Maybe he does? @FSUTribe76 do you write musings for Food and Also Wine Magazine?

You certainly know Hawaii as well. If the law/weed farm doesn’t work out, you could run a boutique travel agency.No but I should. I know more than half the so-called “experts” I see on the Food Network, Travel Channel etc….
We pretty much only have fast food when traveling. When we find a CFA, they always deliver the sandwiches in a quick, friendly, crispy fashion. Per trad’s point though, their waffle fries aren’t very good and typically soggy. The solution is to not have them.I honestly could not tell you the last time I had a drive through chicken sandwich.
