Wasn’t a fan of the McRib. Way too McSaucy.
I like the Quarter Pounder with Chilli Sauce, that needs to be permanent.
Both opened this week. Laverton (Williams Landing) opened on Tuesday followed by Thomastown yesterday.

I’ll be avoiding those places like the plague until until the hysteria dies down. Every Tom, Dick and Harry will be there. I don’t see the point of rushing out. Thomastown is probably the closest to me even though with the distance of 20kms.
Definitely no lines. There’s a few about now. Altona has had one for a while and that’s near Laverton.
News are just so delightful.

North Tamworth.

Well, Tamworth, with North Tamworth being the fourth Maccas in the town.

Thanks.
To be honest, I probably would’ve expected the fattest town in Australia to be in one of the lower socioeconomic areas of Sydney or Melbourne.
I was surprised too actually.
From today until December 27, customers in Northern Beaches won’t cop a delivery fee when they order from six participating outlets in the region, including pizza and burger joints, well-known Thai restaurants and Italian restaurants.

Not surprised as in-n-out fiercely defend their trademark in Australia - thus the random yearly once off pop-ups.
I feel like their original logo was what tipped things over though, it’s too blatant. If they didn’t knock off the logo it probably wouldn’t have been noticed.

Technically its West Tamworth (which has a pretty low socioeconomic score) - I remember when Tamworth got its second Maccas - it was a big deal (not many places had two)

I remember East Tamworth being the first, I remember having lunch there in 1988.
I think South Tamworth was the 2nd?
It’s the real thing.
