haha. i can picture it now...
scene: a seedy lab out the back of the kebab house.
the foreign dude is hunched over their latest experiment - a bacon burger with chilli, kebab meat, chips and some curry sauce thrown on for the laugh - wearing a pristine white labcoat, with his sleeves rolled up to show off his unbelievably hairy arms.

damn sleep deprivation x_x

Who said anything about eating out?
Buy a heap vegetables and meat in shops around Galway (market on a saturday, several fruit/veg type stores around the place, several cheap butchers), bring em home and cook em. You save money in the long-run and you'll be eating far better.

I think he means the half man/half sasquatch who works in the Kebabhaüs.

He had nothing to do with the GalwayLAN special. He merely follows instructions.
It was before his time

He's one of the few (besides John) who can do it right most of the time

It's true, practically 70% of our country is fat. Stay away from fast food like the plague.

Translation: Yes, God who cares about, KFC, McDonalds, Burger King or Pizza Hut when you have somewhere like McDonaghs, the food is quite nice.
Have you ever had the delight of trying a Caffolas?
The next bit of this ancient language on the parchment is faded but it either says, Caffolas is like McDonaghs(It's like McDonaghs.) or that this prehistoric man was also a fan of McDonaghs(I like McDonaghs.).

a hamburger in mcdonalds in america is 29c no wonder so many of them are obese and we're getting there:( :eek: :mad:

What?!?!?! KFC in Castlebar? Jebus. Galway is seriously lacking in the Burger King department. Supermacs can go and jump as can McDonalds (and any other franchise fast food place) - BK = teh win!

McDonaghs is top spot though.

Castlebarian - what about Danollas?

That place is savage, Great chipper. Is Nico's still open down the bottom of Castlebar? That place was great too when I lived in Castlebar.

Salt & Pepper in salthill is great, Ive never seen a chipper as clean as that. It looks lke its brand new and it has been opened for years...

La Salsa is pretty nice too, they have a good deal on halfpounder and chips for under €5 I think?

The Curryhouse in Newcastle are a great Chinese for Delivery, I once ordered meals for 2 people and they were at the door in 9min flat. Pretty scary when you think about it.

danniemcq

mmm kebab house cheesy chip with donor meat and a chicken fillet burger red sauce only...

/drool

there is feck all take aways in Galway apart from chinese charcoal grill is pretty much the only good burger place.

Subway nutrition guide. My fav is 6" Meatballs is 510 cals, about a quarter of my daily needs. Just add lots of sallads and hot sauce. Stay away from the other sauces.

Eddie rockets burgers are excellent, swiss cheese and jalapenos yummy

JohnCleary

Uh, do people actually go by calories and all that crap these days...

FS... If your gonna eat crap food, just work it off with exercise :rolleyes:

danniemcq

what is this exercise you speak of??? i'm one of the lucky b@stards i've got a fast metabolism eat like a horse and still only 11 stone

/dance

MrSinn

if anyone ever watches the documentry about then they will never eat KFC again.

If the chickens were people then they would have been dead 10 years,had 27 kids,and worked to the age of 99

danniemcq

sounds like my Granny

MrSinn

bet she would taste good with some KFC chicken gravy

danniemcq

well there was that one time we had a split roast with her

dawballz

Here's the documentary about KFC...

Yea I've been there twice.

The food is pretty good and the place seems spotlessly clean but it is pricey enough.A burger type thingie,chips and a drink (coke 7up etc) will cost the guts of €25 for two.The burgers I've tried were very tasty and generously sized,one order of chips would probably do between two.

Nice enough but not convinced about the value
