Fast Food Places you wish you had

There are several fast food locations that aren't located in every city. Mostly this is because some of these like In-N-Out or Carl's Jr. are only located on the West Coast. Yet here in Holland, there are still some that I feel that need to be in this city. Last night I contacted several companies to see if they could get a location in Holland. These include:

*Dunkin Donuts
*Chick-Fil-A
*Jack in the Box
*Hardees (actually Holland used to have one but it closed over 15 years ago)

Do any of you guy wish the same?

never heard of Hardees.
We also have Waffle House.
Ooh, And Don Pablos. Ain't I lucky?

Well Hardees in only in the Midwest and East Coast. The other areas have Carl's Jr. instead. Also I don't think Waffle House or Don Pablo's count

Don Pablos is pretty rare.
Have you ever seen one?

Someone from Hardees customer relations recently replied me. She had this to say:

Hardee's and Carl's Jr. are the same company, the former being in the eastern half of the U.S., the latter being in the west. There is actually one and only one state that has both of them.

The reason In-N-Out is pretty much only in the west is that they apparently actually raise their own beef, and ship it fresh to their stores. This means it's not cost-efficient to have stores beyond a certain distance from their beef supplier.

But to the original question, I currently live in an area where I can get to just about any brand of fast-food in under 15 minutes (I can get to three fast food places and a Starbucks in under 15 minutes walking). In a couple weeks, I'll be moving to a place where within a half-hour radius there is…um, let me think…Oh yeah, NOTHING.

A place where five guys make burgers and fries.

The funny thing is, every time I go to Five Guys, I always see 6 or 7 guys working there.
Also I think St. Louis needs more hot dog places.
