I admit I have been addicted to several fast food chains in each of my neighborhood I live in and highly probable that some of you are as well. What I mean by local fast food chains are those that mainly geographically restricted to your city/country and its surroundings neighbors as oppose to those highly internationalized ones (i.e. Mc Donalds, BK, Krispy Kreme, KFC, etc).
These are my favorites in my local neighborhoods (where I maintain residency in each place respectively):
Toronto: Tim Hortons - I come here regularly for breakfast to enjoy a cup of coffee and their Egg Sausage McMuffin Biscuit Sandwiches which craves my mouth and are much better than those served by McDonalds.
Tons of branches through the GTA.
Hong Kong: Cafe De Coral 大家樂 - Simple HK style Cafe serving a combo of western & local chinese cuisine and drinks (What HK sytle Cafes are all about). Baked pork chop and preserved egg breakfast congee always fill up my taste hunger whenver I am in a hurry.
Tons of branches throughout the HK SAR.
Auckland: LJS - I am definately more of a Fish & Chips fan than Burgers. Their tartar dipping sauce is the best and makes their fish fillets to crave for.
Tons of branches throughout the Auckland Region.
LJS in Auckland looks pretty cool. I would give them a go. I was ticked off some years ago when they took out Georgie Pie. I loved their pie and chips. Pretty cool! I do like the Kiwi Burger at their McDonald's!
I would definately recommend others to try these three listed above if they are visiting these places especially for those in an eating budget and in search of simple, fast, and convenience dining atmosphere. So what are your "local" favorites?
