+ pdxleo Posted January 2, 2021 Posted January 2, 2021 The Beaverton, OR. city council is having an open house meeting on Monday evening, to take public testimony and display map plans for the In-n-Out Burger to be built at the interchange of OR 217 (Westside Freeway) and OR 10 (Beaverton-HIllsdale Highway). This is one of two In-n-Out locations currently working on their permits for expansion into the west Portland suburbs. The lot is currently an abandoned Burger King, and has the grandfathered zoning needed- but the location is next to a new Chick-fil-A , Target strip mall, and a Home Depot, all crammed in around the already over-loaded freeway interchange. After seeing the chaotic traffic around the restaurant's previous openings in Medford, Grants Pass, and Salem, the city is trying to be proactive about resident's traffic concerns. This area is already gridlocked during rush hours Saturdays, and holiday shopping season, and it will be a complete zoo with In-n-Out added into the mix- gonna be ugly this summer
+ Charlie Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 We have been having similar controversy about plans to open and In-n-Out Burger in the neighboring town of Rancho Mirage. marylander1940 1

Guest Posted January 3, 2021 Posted January 3, 2021 The term fast food is an insult to proprietors of such establishments. They are QSRs...Quick Service Restaurants... But to me, there's only one - Chipotle.

MikeBiDude Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 The term fast food is an insult to proprietors of such establishments. They are QSRs...Quick Service Restaurants. Yes, they appreciate that. But to me, there's only one - Chipotle. No

+ Charlie Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 The only time I eat fast food is when I'm traveling by car and need to find a place to stop for lunch. Then my first choice is always Subway. marylander1940 and Kent1972 2
+ BenjaminNicholas Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Can Panda Express be considered as fast food? They do serve incredibly fresh panda. + keroscenefire 1
MikeBiDude Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Can Panda Express be considered as fast food? Still considered a QSR, as @BnaC points out. They are QSRs...Quick Service Restaurants.. marylander1940 1
+ WilliamM Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 Mexican take out, especially tacos recently. But, I like all Mexican food. Indian take out also. Delicious! + Charlie 1
+ azdr0710 Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 What defines the difference between QSR and 'fast casual' (if there is a difference). Are those two levels the "lowest" in terms of "fastness"? Thanks marylander1940 1
Mjonis Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 I love fast food but have been on low carb diet for like 3 years. Plus after gallbladder removal I don’t do well with high fat content. But I love burger twat. That’s what I call Burger King. Haha taco smell chalupas. Mmm if five guys is fast food that’s my fav marylander1940 1
MikeBiDude Posted January 4, 2021 Posted January 4, 2021 What defines the difference between QSR and 'fast casual' (if there is a difference). Are those two levels the "lowest" in terms of "fastness"? Thanks “QSR” has basically replaced “fast food”. “Fast casual” think Chili’s, Appleby’s, Red Robin etc. + azdr0710, + Charlie and Epigonos 3
TruthBTold Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Because they are generally eaten with French fries (or can be) my favorites are gyros. It is perfectly OK to walk down the street and eat a rolled up gyros. Sort of like in Italy where it is just fine to walk down the street to eat a rolled up piece of thin pizza.
+ azdr0710 Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 Where do taco trucks belong? In the 'roach coach' category
MikeBiDude Posted January 5, 2021 Posted January 5, 2021 In the 'roach coach' category Most food trucks don’t fall into “roach coach” category anymore, they are getting gentrified! And taco trucks and food trucks in my area now have Health Department license and inspection grades posted. marylander1940, + azdr0710 and Mjonis 3
PetetKsfo Posted January 6, 2021 Posted January 6, 2021 Wok to Walk in NYC. (Also in London, Amsderdam, and a few other random cities across the globe.) Its a great fast-food stri fry noodles (or vegetables) and choice of meat (or not) in a container to go, with your choice of chopsticks or fork. It's my first stop for lunch whenever I arrive in NYC.
