When I was in MD I used think the same thing. Now I have two within a mile distance from my house, and about another 10 within 10 minutes. It will really be ok if I don't see Sonic after I move.

For me, when I go home to Wisconsin, I have to hit Culvers for custard or Krolls for a hamburger--mostly local fast food places. In terms of big chains, I love Hardees when I am home. Also, any place that serves fried cheese curds and brats.

We have finally gotten a couple of Five Guys Burgers down here in NC. That place is great!

Mmm yes it is. The've been in the DC metro area forever (I think the original one is in Alexandria) but I'd never been. Went for the first time last week, it lived up to the hype.

there's a few checkers in LI...

i was SO excited to go to LA for In N Out and it was mediocre :ducking from tomatoes being thrown:

i've been waiting to go somewhere that has a Dairy Queen. and i've never been to Waffle House, though ive passed it on the highway many a times.

Dairy Queen is highly overrated. You're not missing out on anything.

Hey, you take that back! :mad: :p

I thought DQ was national. :confused:

this place called "The Cookout" when i'm in NC.

it is, i heard there is one in jersey city, but im not going out of my way to get to it. i guess there are more DQ's in some places than others.

Bojangle's has THE SALTIEST FRIES I have ever tasted. I ate there for lunch yesterday and thought of this thread. I don't even know Bojangle's menu well enough. I will be glad to get home for the holidays and feast on some Popeye's chicken and biscuits and fries.:D :D :D :D

Yes Ma'am!!!!!!!!!!:D (mainly for the extensive variety of milkshakes)

Too funny. I had lunch at Bojangles today.

I rarely get fries there -- I figure who wants fries when you can have their fantastic biscuits. For lunch, I had chicken, dirty rice, a country ham biscuit, a plain biscuit and tea. I was a very happy camper.

Enjoy your trip home!

Phillys Best?? I have never heard of them. The funny thing is there are no locations in Philadelphia.

Booooo!!!!! haha In N Out is definitely a particular kind of burger but I LOVE it. I've heard people say it doesn't live up to the hype, but those of us that grew up with it love it!

BLASPHEMER.

Dilly Bars...Hot Fudge Brownie Delight...mmmmmmmmmm.

DQ is national, but I don't think their presence is what it used to be back in like the 70s - 80s.

I'd eat there but I've been totally put off by the fact that my local DQ is next to the sewage treatment plant the next town over.
