There is a CFA near my house on the other side of the freeway. The lines are so long they stretch onto the freeway feeder. I used to do the U-turn under the freeway there, but the line for CFA is so long it backs up to the U-turn lane, making it quite difficult to make the U-turn.
I've never been blown away by their food. I seem to remember it just being a piece of chicken in a bun with a pickle; but it apparently is like crack to their many customers.
It is much different from other chicken sandwiches.
They fry it and butter the bun with PEANUT OIL. This seems to be the secret. It not only tastes different but looks different!
I like Wendy’s chicken and even McD’s and Burger King are OK, but they are far closer in their type than any is to CFA. CFA is very distinctive.
But, to each their own.
