Subject: Food Court Eateries
Written By: whistledog on 11/29/06 at 4:26 am
Sometimes, eateries found in food courts at shopping malls only exist in malls, and some can be found outside of malls. What are some of your favourites?
One of my favourites is Mrs. Vanelli's. They have the best Lasagna I've ever had. Sadly, the closest one to me is 50km to the next town, so I don't go there as often as I'd like :(

And of course, there is A&W, which for the longest time in the 80s and 90s were only found in Food Courts (in the 80s, they had the Drive-Ins also), until they brought back the retro look and built free standing restaurants all across Canada

I think every mall in the country has a Chick-fil-A.

I don't think Chick-Fil-A is franchised all over the country. I know it's in the South, and Mike says there's one in California, but I haven't heard of them being anywhere else.

There is a couple Chik-fil-a's in western Ohio.
Some in our mall that I like:
Max Orient (sells cheap, cafeteria style Chinese food - but it's still reasonably good.)
Ruby Tuesday Restaurant
Sbarro Italian Eatery
Auntie Anne's

Every mall in the Philadelphia area has a Chick-Fil-A. My favorite place is Bain's Deli for their
Corned Beef Special. I also like American Hot Dog, man, now I really want a Chicago Classic.

Two of my favourite food courts are located at McArthur Glen in Bridgend, Wales and Shopping City in Wood Green, London. The McArthur Glen food court has restaurants such as McDonald's, Rollover Hot Dogs, Singapore Sam, KFC and Pizza Hut. The Shopping City food court has a Quizno's Subs and a Burger King. both of them are close to Cineworld.

We have a few Chick-Fil-A's here too; there's a stand-alone one near my work. Only place here where you can get a good chicken biscuit for breakfast. :)
Whenever I do decide to go to a mall and shop (and eat), some of my faves include Sbarro (lotsa pizza for your money), A&W, Orange Julius (thought those were non-existent anymore but there's one in the mall on the Westsiiiiiiiiiiiiide) and Mrs. Fields.

For Mexican food I've enjoyed La Salsa.
And for Italian food, I usually would eat from Sbarro, especially during the 90's. I dunno if they still exist anymore.
And occasionally I'd get lemonade from Hot Dog On A Stick.
