4/30/2010 Chick-Fil-A

sorry it's out of chronological order. i thought i'd go ahead and blog this. i've been asked "what is it about chick-fil-a that's so special?" many times.

how many fast food places do you know that have fresh flowers on the table? chick-fil-a's the only one i know of.















lemonade, just like fresh-squeezed. it's some of the best i've ever had, and growing up in TX i've had quite a lot. they also make it in sugar-free so my aunt who's a diabetic can also drink it!

the 'chicky no picky' sandwich. the classic chick-fil-a sandwich. whenever i order these i get these dumb stares from the kids working the counter. it's nice when there's an older person working because i get these huge smiles!

it's a seasoned chicken sandwich with no pickle on a bun. simple. delicious.


and better words were never spoken. and to think it's on the wall of a fast food place. one would expect to see this quote oh say on a menu from Kai... (see earlier posting)


they also do salads and grilled chicken, but the classic chicky-no-picky is my hand's down favorite. when i took matt to TX the 1st time i kept saying we had to stop. he didn't get it but he stopped. he's making a phone call and i get food. when he tastes the lemonade he decided to take a bite of my sandwich to try it. he was hooked. now we never pass up the opportunity to have breakfast, lunch, dinner or a combination of the 3 (depends on schedule and locations and timing) when we visit a place where there's a chick-fil-a.

sadly there are still none in the seattle/bellevue metroplex. there's 1 in WA up in bellingham, near the college. i find it extremely hard to believe no one has submitted an application to the CFA gods. but i do believe the CFA gods have deemed this area undesirable for some reason. i'd sure appreciate it if they'd explain it to me! sigh oh well. maybe i'll be lucky and 1 of their people will read this and reconsider. i would entertain the idea except they do have fairly rigid guidelines and i don't qualify. so before anyone says anything, i have checked.

Having kids, we eat at Chick fil A on a regular basis. I never really thought about the fresh flowers! Thanks for pointing them out :) And yes, I actually had Chick fil A last night. Love that carrot/raisin salad!!
