O2 end or the other one? I'm not good with this North/South/East/West thing.
This is a disaster.
For my nutritional status.

Get off at the front of the train if your coming from the Hauptbahnhof

... Mmmmm Spicy Chicken Wings smile.gif
Johnny_who?
@ Katrina

No, not O2 end - it's the other end
Scogs
I can see O2 having to run a suttle buss at lunch time
OhFFS
If we're going to do a TT KFC meet then we have to do it on the opening day, shirley? Mmmm... I can almost feel the grease dripping down my chin now...

Mhhh...Yummy i live close to the location! I seriously hope that it won't taste like what i had KFC last year in London ...gosh it was as though the meat has been soak in sea salt! I had ordered the original 3 piece set back then.

I coincidentally met the regional manager for KFC last night. The new store won't have biscuits, but will have the cole slaw. mellow.gif

So when ARE we meeting? It sounds like it will be a day or two. This could by an ideal excuse for a walk/bus ride and be my first post-op TT event smile.gif

So, how soon before somebody posts the first review of the place? Anyone going for lunch? I'm planning to drop in on the way home from work this evening.
Katrina
I'm seriously tempted to go at lunchtime - after my sports' class (ha ha) but I've just had a meeting put in arggggggggggggggg
So am thinking of going straight there after work then on to Günther's.

YES
GBR - Top of the stairs out of the U-Bahn
You know what to do

PS Blimeygirl I now have a vision of you with a fishing rod with a crispy strip on the end waving it in front of Tom17 so that he does his therapeutic walks...

Georg-Brauchle-Ring is closest for the guy with the sticks. To be honest it looks about even on the map...but people on here have said GBR as opposed to OEZ. You can walk from OEZ too, depends on what lengths you will go to for chicken. We can't make it to Gunthers as Tom has to rest his leg but mini field trips (like the kind where you get chicken at the end) are permitted

hehe...like the donkey and the carrot...or something like that? OK peeps Katrina says OEZ so we will go with OEZ (she like...knows stuff)
thejarvii
The U-Bahn stop is Georg-Brauchle-Ring NOT OEZ. I only say this because it isn't between the two stops (although these two U-Bahn stops really are quite close), but it's literally at the top of the stairs of the GBR North-East exit (exit the direction the train is going on the right).

Enjoy!
Katrina
That's right - sorry for any confusion - it is Georg-Brauchle-Ring NOT OEZ.
potbelly
The Hot wings menu I just had was delicious... tongue.gif

There are long queues there at the moment. 20 mins minimum !!! The place is mobbed !
SleeplessInMunich

Hanauer Str. 44
Tom17

interplanetjanet

f*ck, i forgot to bring my wallet to work! I was going to swing by after work and take home a bucket.

Damn, have to do it tomorrow, instead.
AlphaQ
Had been there for lunch!! an alternative to crap McDonalds!! had good chicken wings...yummy !!! smile.gif
SleeplessInMunich
I found without any problems. Went in and joined the shortest queue...big mistake. The person in front took about 10 minutes because all her vouchers confused the trainee at the register and the bill got all messed up. Took 2 managers to sort it out.
But finally got to order. I got a family bucket with 8 pieces of chicken, 2 large fries and I ordered gravy, wanting just the sauce but ended up get mashed potato wish gravy...which I don't like.
That said the chicken was really good and the rest of the family enjoyed it as well.
Tom17
We went there and bumped into Pootle and Katrina. My crutches got us table service from a (we think) manager, which was nice.

The crispy strips were a bit plain and small, but the chicken pieces were mmmm finger lickin good!!

yum!
sarabyrd
We waited about half an hour in line, it was pretty full. The manager-johnny was handing out free drinks but started behind us. All the tables were taken inside and out so we crashed out on the fresh, crispy, comfy grass outside looking very American. The food was standard: The coleslaw was watery, the fries even worse than McD's, the coating (original and hot'n'spicy) very good. Free refills means only softdrinks (Pepsi, 7Up etc.). The staff were run off their feet but very calm, cheerful and helpful. Take the bike if you can to work off the calories.
pootle
KFC was lovely smile.gif))

Lots of good food, and if you want prompt service, take someone on crutches wink.gif

I went there yesterday. Only one complaint: NO BISCUITS ohmy.gif
But otherwise very good. I may go again today. smile.gif
roots
This is on top of my "To Do" list.

Will surely give it a try this week.
Katrina
I am eating the last piece out of my 6 Bucket right now.
Shameful.
SleeplessInMunich
I've brought 2 pieces of cold KFC, leftover from the bucket yesterday, into work for lunch today...
Blimeygirl
Well what's a really long thread about fast food without pics?





So yeah...no biscuits...but corn on the cob and mashed with gravy looked pretty yummy. I would give the fries a miss but the lovely tasty Colonel's secret recipe and the endless soft drinks makes up for it. There is not that much seating...but there is a nice outdoor bit and I suspect when it is less busy people will find a seat no problem.

The managerial guy said if this location does well then they will be opening more!

He said it was all up to us...ah the burdens we must bear wink.gif
Katrina
Can't think who would do a thing like using the bucket as a nosebag ph34r.gif
Blimeygirl
Nope...me either...there must be something in the chicken... wink.gif

I thought I recognized those ears and hands, but it would be soooo out of character of the person I was thinking of...

It's one of those pictures where it's so wrong to comment on it and yet even more wrong not to comment.
jml
That picture is hot, Yeti. H.O.T.
Yeti
The thing is JML, are you thinking the same thing that I'm thinking when you contemplate that image ?

Because if you are then it begs the question "who is Keyser Soze ?".

Tank:Here you go, buddy; "Breakfast of Champions."
Mouse: If you close your eyes, it almost feels like you're eating runny eggs.
Apoc: Yeah, or a bowl of snot.
Mouse: Do you know what it really reminds me of? Tasty Wheat. Did you ever eat Tasty Wheat?
Switch: No, but technically, neither did you.
Mouse: That's exactly my point. Exactly. Because you have to wonder: how do the machines know what Tasty Wheat tasted like? Maybe they got it wrong. Maybe what I think Tasty Wheat tasted like actually tasted like oatmeal, or tuna fish. That makes you wonder about a lot of things. You take chicken, for example: maybe they couldn't figure out what to make chicken taste like, which is why chicken tastes like everything.

It's one of those roads you really don't want to go down, Roots ! biggrin.gif
SleeplessInMunich
I just had KFC for the second time today and 2 days in a row. I finally got just a carton of their gravy and unfortunately it was a bit watery compared to the stuff back in Ireland or England. Still, can't complain about the chicken. Damn good stuff smile.gif
kwl20
