CH1 snobbery is the best kind of snobbery. So much better than Beleafer's.

I’m not even a snob tho; on the whole I enjoy fast food but I think Swiss Chalet is in that small circle of hell along with Pizza Pizza and Subway

Agreed. I had chicken at a place that was a bit dry in 1994. Mon dieu, I have thus made it my life's work for DECADES to proselytize of the horrors I experienced that day.

Do not call me persnickety, sir. You will never understand the great offense I take to such parched and withered poultry!!

Holy shit that's as low as it gets. It has been awhile but I don't recall SC being as bad as pizza pizza or subway. Pizza Pizza in particular is literal poison. I am more excited than ever to try it!
 
It used to be legit good! I swear to god!! They changed the beef! If I remember right it was more of a "premium" fast food joint back in the day. Now it's about on par with the others in terms of pricing. As it should be!

I'll give a chicken sandwich a shot at some point tho.
Prefer their angus burgers over the original, but the last couple of times I had them was not impressed. So haven't tried one in quite a while. The double original with your favourite toppings should still be decent enough.

And no Swiss Chalet does not deserve to be ranked that low. Surprisingly good caesars, too! (Narrator: The last time he had a caesar at Swiss Chalet was probably in the late 90s, so your mileage may vary. Or as CH1 would say, never again is far too soon, ESCHEW! ESCHEW!)
 
I had a whopper once last year when folks here encouraged me to try it and that tasted more like OG Harveys than current Harveys does. Still not quite there but I never thought I'd see the day where BK had a better product than Harveys!


Disclaimer: that was the 2nd time I've ever had BK in my entire life. I'm no expert.

Hey, after 12 straight super dry chicken experiences, I can no longer blame them. It's my bad if I give them a chance to make it 13.

Maybe I'm missing out but my food life has been pretty good without tempting another kick at the can
 
On the menu today at the Presto household:

 
This oddly resembles LOF watching 16 seasons of a show he hates...

haha...this is over a long stretch of time...and frankly never my choice. Sometimes you don't decide where the gang eats. When I'm in the mood for some low fuss bird, I'll opt for any cheap Portuguese joint every time.
 
Well with the ULTIMATE DINERS GIFT CARD there are only really two choices where I can spend it. And I WILL try both; I may even try LOFs favorite Harveys burger although tbh it sounds horrible and less appealing than a dry ass rotisserie chicken. I've never been more excited to see what all the fuss is about with regards to SC tho.

Who the fuck hates you THAT MUCH!
 
I would barter it for a box of Rapid Response tests and few KN95s

It's not that they hate me. It's that they somehow (I don't ask questions) received thousands worth of these gift cards from their work and they don't eat that shit either. They offered some of it to me and I don't turn down free stuff. Unless it was for Pizza Pizza. You couldn't pay me to eat that shit.
 
I believe East Side Mario's is also one of the eligible restaurants. I ate there once by force and I'd rather light myself on fire than go through that experience again.
 
Now I’m hungry for some St. Hubert chicken. IMO it and their sauce is much better than Swiss Chalet.

Algos reacting to all this Swiss C chatter in real time. My guess is that you need copious amounts of booze to chew thru that meat.

Speaking of reheated dog food, I was recently given a bunch of gift cards that up to around $300 for Harveys/Swiss Chalet. I may hang on to some to gift but shit... Is there anything good at Swiss Chalet at least? Recommendations? I haven't been there in at least a decade. I don't know if I can do Harveys anymore. The drop in quality is tainting my memories of what used to be a decent fast food joint. This is a crisis. I need help.
They have a rotisserie chicken sandwich that is good (might just be the chalet sauce) white meat only. Nothing gourmet but it tastes like real food.
 
White meat? And I'm hearing reports that even the dark meat is dry? Shit... It better come with a lot of sauce.

Why don't you just go to one of the Kelseys, fionn or other other places and have some ciders.

they bred a special chicken that only contains white meat -- share holders love the increased profit margin
