I better stop, I've lost a few pounds since being back and want to keep it up.
If you missed the chicken, then you should try the chicken tenders. They are made-to-order. Of course everytime we go to your home area, we always have to stop by to get a chicken biscuit too. If you want to keep the weight off, you might not want to go back there and try any of these things, because I guarantee you, you would be calling for one to be back up here like me.

They had better proffer a stoplight with a left turn signal or they will be out of business in a year. That location looks awfully hard to get into.

There are so many half empty strip malls it is hard to see why they would pick that location. Car count doesn't "count"
if it is commuter traffic.

Either that or have it's own entrance and exit. That shopping center desperately needs another entrance. They would have to turn in Shoppers Best Way or make a U-turn at Smoketown. Definitely doesn't sound good.

I am not sure where they are thinking. I know PW Pkwy is terribly full of businesses. I am hoping they don't put it on Jeff Davis. (RT 1) Makes me wonder if they may try and build it by Wegmans where they are going to have the new commuter lot and ball field.

I want to move far far away to tell you the truth, much as I love Sonic!

I need to try Quaker Steak still, but I wasn't happy with the burger I got at Steak N' Shake. It was as thin as a pancake and just not good.

I like Sonics chili cheese tots and cherry limeades. Ice cream stuff is good too.

I used to live in Suffolk, Virginia and we had a Sonic and it was great, and never got old.

I would love it if they would build a Quaker Steak and Lube around here! Fredericksburg is the closest. They were going to put one in Manassas, but I think that died.

Years ago, when I was younger and still dared to eat at McDonald's I stopped at one in Manassas. I ordered a fish filet, fries and a diet coke. The girl behind the counter looked at me and asked "Diet Coke?" "Why would you order a diet coke after ordering this?" I could tell she was just messing with me as I was in uniform so I smiled at her and said she better get my food before I go to her competitor.

Not high on Bojangles either. Ate at one in Charlotte in June and it was only mediocre.
