Wait...there's a Hardee's that's open in Michigan City?

No, but the ghetto comes here to work. "Normal" is relative.

Ghetto comes to work? Or perhaps in this case to steal work not so much.

Based on the drive-thru lines and the online reviews, they probably don't work any more than they have to.

Unlike the upstanding employees at any of the other burger joints?

Well, I’m talking a few decades ago. The mcdonalds employees were either old ladies or high school kids, and oh my god, going to steak and shake back then was guaranteed great food and great service! You couldn’t pay me to eat at the local steak and shake now, last time I was in there, we turned around and walked out before the door even closed.

Seems counterintuitive. Even the Taco Bell I normally go to that is right next door to the crack motel doesn't seem to employ crackheads. I don't think they really have any interest in working. Well, unless "working" includes panhandling at the intersections.

31 and thompson? Use to go there for lunch all the time when I had that craptasic IT job just a tad south in those ugly brown offices.

Yep, that's the one! And I remember meeting you at those ugly brown offices, behind Wendy's.

I have no idea. I don't like tacos.

The Hardees tacos are better than Taco Bell. Not that I don't love the Bell.

They recruit in evangelical circles for folks to work and tout they are closed on Sunday so they can go to church…

There is two steak and shakes if Lafayette. The one on the east side by meijer is still pretty decent. The other one not so much. I call it the steak and shank.

I surprised Freddy's hasn't put all of the Steak and Shakes out of business, yet. I'm sure it won't be long.

I have always enjoyed stopping in for a chicken sandwich.

So you go to Popeyes? Because Chik-Fil-A doesn't sell a chicken sammich.

 

[Cameramonkey]

I miss their good quality burgers.
Back before Covid, they had the absolute BEST burgers. On par with a sit down joint like Max and Ermas. Tasted exactly like they were cooked on a charcoal grill. Juicy, with just a little charring around the edges. Made BK burgers look puny.
Now its like they microwave the burgers.

If they actually looked like that and had flavor then id change my mind. But they don’t. Terrible sammiches they pass off as chicken.

 

[KG1]

Whatever it is their selling seems to be pretty popular.

Ah, okay. I've never eaten there, so I've got no dog in that fight. I do like Popeye's though.

Popeyes sammiches are really good. Cfa is soggy, tasteless miniature pieces of “meat”

Not where I get my CFA. Popeyes grease is awful and service is nonexistent…

 

[Cameramonkey]

the CFA grilled chicken is pretty damned good. Popeyes cleans their clock on the breaded front.
