before I go on - I ain't looking for a badge of honour....it's just not really my sort of place. I'd like to also point out that I have on maybe 15 occasions over the last decade dipped in to KFC for 2 emergency chicken fillets when I'm out drinking and lagging a bit, but I haven't been in properly for easily ten whole years.

first impressions - there didn't appear to be a menu I could peruse on my way in. as I didn't really know what to get, I had to look very hard at the big board behind the counter from quite a distance. felt under quite a bit of pressure to make the right choice because of that.

I asked the lady what was in the 'box' - some sort of burger, a piece of chicken and a side. I went for this and chose beans for the side. asked of they did some sort of juice as a drink and they offered me a fruit shoot! I got fanta. she asked me if I wanted to go large - I asked what that meant. she said \I'd get a hash brown in the burger. sure, why not.

food didn't take too long. chicken was REALLY greasy, but not too bad. polished that off first. man, my hands were so greasy after eating that shit, but couldn't find any of those wet wipe things. guess they don't do them any more. dunno?

the burger was fucking shit. couldn't see any sign of a hash brown. perhaps it disintegrated? beans were very hot. like nuclear. very poor flavour too.

finished the food quite quickly and went to the loos to de-grease my hands/face. the toilet really stunk of piss and there was a fresh turd in the bog. could't quite get my hands clean, despite about 2 minutes of ferocious washing.

pretty much after I finished the food I felt a bit queasy. this has progressed throughout the afternoon and I'm now feeling like I could actually be physically sick. not sure I can face any more food today. was hoping to knock up a curry tonight, but the very thought of it is making me gag.

here are my scores for the individual elements of the experience:

environment - full of horrible people. repulsive stench of dead chickens. 3/10
food - seriously, one of the worst things I've eaten in a long time. 1/10
price - about six quid. not bad if you like that sort of thing. have to say the drink was a bit big, so I ditched about half of it. 4/10

overall - 2/10. wouldn't go again. fucking horrible place
