    I can't believe that I could recommend McDonalds. But I am finding myself saying that you could do…read moremuch worse at other maccas, BK's, Wendy's, and even Murder burger. Seriously their make your own "deluxe" burgers are actually not bad. I know right?!?! A McDonalds that makes decent hamburger. I am sure that it might be a sign of the apocalypse or something. What I think is pretty good is that you can design your own meal, you can make that ¼ lb mega Mac or a mc flurry with extra sauce added. Plus you get asked if you need help. They are really good at helping you out if you've never used the self-service kiosk before. Oh and here is the next non-Maccas thing. Do the gourmet burger and they bring it to your table. They even offer to give you your dessert after. It has to be a dream right? The negatives are that this isn't fast food. If you need it fast, I would seriously just drivethru. Sure there is the rest of the crappy menu, the same old stuff. But it is nice to know that at least one McDonalds is trying to do something better than the norm.

    Was a good coffee stop early morning a few years ago when they first opened, but I've been too many…read moretimes now and gotten given the wrong order. Last experience was ordering a Clubhouse Angus, and being given a chicken burger. Decided to eat it anyway as we were in a rush, and to whinge upon leaving. Spoke to the manager and he offer me a new burger. I explained I was in a rush and aren't exactly hungry anymore after scoffing down a combo etc and to just sling me a voucher. But when he said, "no, we don't do that, it's not in our policy." I asked, "is it your policy to name your chickens AC/DC band member names, because I'm quite happy to come back and order a Clubhouse Brian Johnson or a Clubhouse Bon Scott another time but when I order an Angus burger I'm kinda expecting beef" His face then went as blank as his apparent brain cell count. So, if I ever go back there it's purely for the coffee, nothing else.

    I am not proud of my addiction to fried chicken, but it does make me a better judge of quality than…read moremany amateur fried-chicken eaters. I try to eat mostly Japanese fried chicken, as everyone knows Japanese is healthy for you. I'm not sure this extends to fried chicken however it rationalises it in my mind. Sometimes, however, a true fried chicken addict just needs a bit of KFC. I have tried the KFC in Takapuna and Birkenhead and it was sickening, greasy, not crispy skin, the chicken itself tasting very industrial and the service poor as well. The Ponsonby KFC, the few times I have ventured in, bucks the trend and is crispy and delicious with a nice place to sit and helpful service. I don't like to admit it but I probably will be back.

    For my friends that know me well, they'll know that as well as being a big foodie I'm also a fried…read morechicken connoisseur. And it's for this very reason that the Ponsonby Road KFC deserves a special mention. This is not just KFC, it's the epitome of Colonel Sanders himself, and this comes from experience as well as taste-testing KFC in over 10 different countries around the world. Why Ponsonby Road? For starters, it was one of the first stores in NZ to get a 'makeover' with a flash new fitout, plasma screens in the restaurant etc. Food wise the chicken is always hot, when you ask for extra seasoning on your chips you get it and everything just seems fresher and less greasy than some other stores. And thirdly, the service is friendly and engaging. No bored, pimply teenager on the other end of the drive-through microphone. They are happy to accommodate swap-outs in orders and multiple payments. And people who can't decide what they want... All in all, a very pleasing fast food experience. Fill your next chicken craving at KFC Ponsonby Road.
