Re: KFC in Switzerland?

There is a KFC and Taco Bell in Guantanamo Bay Cuba. Neither exists in Switzerland.....

How can this be allowed to happen??

Re: KFC in Switzerland?

It's about time someone revived this topic.. Even faaackin GITMO has one now??? And It's also about time the Pentagon supported the Good Colonel.

When your choice is between Coop/Migros, a Doner joint, McDonald's or Burger King, and maybe Subway... you sometimes want some more choices...

Re: KFC in Switzerland?

Someone should open a combo KFC/Taco Bell somewhere on Langstrasse. Keep it open until 3am on the weekends to feed the drunks.

You could probably give the food away at lunch, and probably still make a nice profit.

It had to be a Taco Bell - KFC,. as KFC mighr still invite undesirable elements. And to use the name of Taco Bell you still need a licence from them. Whatever, a Taco Bell KFC in Langstrasse would be a success

Re: KFC in Switzerland?

The absence of KFC in Switzerland is actually what makes it such a nice place the longer they are kept out the better since I dont really want to start eating cat

Do you think that KFC serves cat? Or is this just more Wallabies "humour"?

I forget to mention that the German KFC also has mashed potato, gravy + coleslaw (but alas no biscuits).
MAshed potato and gravy? Aah, now that almost makes it worth a visit. :-)

An alternative for fried chicken lovers: ZicZac's in Basel now has an All You Can Eat, fried chicken wings night, every Monday. Cost is 29.5 chf ( includes all the chips you can eat as well.)

We were in Freiburg on Saturday and visited a new KFC that has just opened up on Tullastrasse ( the outskirts of the town near Ikea, Obi etc..)
In terms of quality and cleanliness, its certainly a cut above the one in Mulhouse however unlike French KFCs, there was no free Wifi.

Ahh! I missed seeing this post while I was in the US.

Looking at the map, wouldn't that be on the way back to Basel from Europa-Park?

Sure. Like pretty much all other chains from cheap all the way to steak houses like Morton's.
