    What's your favorite item from the Burger King menu?

    I worked for BK 1987-1989, 1992, 1993-1997. The burger buddies really were very popular. People were angry when they left. The BK Broiler, Whaler, ham & cheese sandwich (off menu all the years I worked there, but still sold), and Italian Chicken Sandwich were all really good. Also, there was a Raspberry Danish in the 1980’s too. It was so good, especially if you went all out and melted several patties of butter and poured them over it. Ahh.. high school metabolism was a thing to treasure and exploit.

    My older sister worked at BK back in the '80s when those chicken tenders came out. My friend and I used to bother her at break, trying to pilfer her tenders, lol. Why they removed them from the menu, I'll never know; those things were delicious.

    I worked at BK in the mid 80s. We wore those polyester rust colored corduroy uniforms with the plaid. The smell of the restaurant stayed with me when I left for the day.
    I was obsessed with the first chicken tenders. They were amazing!!! And the burger buddies were yummy too. Now my autistic son loves chicken fries and has to go to BK, every time we’re in town.

      I started at BK in 1987. I got hired very shortly after they changed to the polo shirt uniforms. So glad I didn’t have to wear that! Working the steamer in glasses and on hot days was torture enough. I loved working drive thru though.

    • @michelleb7399
      @michelleb7399 2 роки тому

      Yep, I was a BK restaurant manager then. It came out advertised as part of a trio of new chicken sandwiches: American, Italian, an French. American was different from the “regular” chicken sandwich in that it had tomatoes in addition to the standard lettuce and mayo. French had Swiss cheese added, then the Italian was different from all of them, without mayo or lettuce. It had an oblong-shaped slice of mozzarella and the yummy marinara sauce.

    A few years ago, I stopped getting whoppers from BK since the bottom bun turned to mush due to its thinness, absorption of grease from the burger, and possibly low fiber in the bread. So I stopped going. But, when traveling to Berlin Germany, I visited a BK restaurant and the Whopper was great with bread that had texture, great taste and remained intact while eating the burger. So, BK is off my list since the bread bun in the USA restaurant can't perform to my liking. Sorry BK. I'm no longer a customer.

    De-clutter the menu. Fast- hot at the DRIVE-THRU. Put the best employs near the drive-up.

      You also need excellent people in the kitchen. When I worked there, I was great at drive through but not so great in the kitchen. You need people in the kitchen who can quickly read the order, mark the wrapper, and prepare 2-3 sandwiches simultaneously… all in about 30 seconds.

    There used to be a rule-of-thumb in the restaurant industry -- the larger the menu, the lower the quality. I think you could make a credible case that fast food of this type from McDonald's of Burger King was better when the menu was limited to hamburgers, French fries, and milkshakes (that weren't just today's whipped powder). Sometimes it doesn't pay to forget your roots.
