First KFC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KFC shows a sign with "First KFC" in Salt Lake City

What's so big about that....if you want I can post a picture of my towns first KFC. Actually it's my towns only KFC. I guess there are not as many chicken lover's in my neck of the woods. We have at least 5 McDonalds, 3 Wendy's, Jack in the boxes, Arby's etc. but only one KFC.

Great that you still have your expected enthusiasm Bro. D. It was from another thread that you don't participate in. Glad you shared your thought on this topic.

First KFC: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/KFC shows a sign with "First KFC" in Salt Lake City

The first KFC was a restraint on State Street in Salt Lake City (about 25th south). I remember going there in my younger days. It was a real restraint complete with linen napkins, silver ware and waitresses – in other words – what we now call “fine” dining, not the fast food variety. It was a Salt Lake icon that is now lost forever in history and time. If you want a good chicken dinner at a real restraint, you will have to travel a bit from SLC to Madox – a nifty restraint just south of Brigham City (the city of my birth) on the old highway 89.

I thought the 39th South location was the original. It was previously named The Dew Drop Inn. Think of how it would have been different named Utah Fried Chicken!

A big shout out to the Maddox Restaurant in Perry, Utah mentioned by Traveler. It has excellent fried chicken (we Mormons like our Chicken and Jell-O). Also the Spring Chicken Inn at Wanship, Utah is worth a visit by tourists and locals.

Chik-Fil-A beats the absolute crap out of KFC. Alas, there are none in western NY :( Atlanta had one about every 3 miles it seemed, and they were all packed. Kind of like "Ted's" Hot Dogs here in Buffalo.

Hey, I live in Atlanta, and Chick-Fil-A is awesome. I used to eat there ALL the time. Better than KFC, by far. And they are closed on Sundays, due to religious reasons. Awesome

Because this man reverences the Sabbath day and is closed, I truly believe this is why he is so successful.

Man, do I miss the breakfast chicken biscuits!
