    Biscuitville? In triangle.dining? Seriously?

    De gustibus non disputandem. All of us eat at places
    both high and low. Personally, I can't stand Golden
    Corrals, so that thread didn't interest me--but I *do*
    love the occasional trip to Taco Bell. And for those
    of us who DO like biscuits, this may be interesting.

    The message load on this ng is pretty low, so it's hardly
    an inconvenience to anybody when anybody else's messages
    aren't directly relevant to the interests of the party of
    the first part, anyway. (IMO, that is.)

    So. You are the walras. Coo-coo-ca-choo!

    I have fond childhood memories of going to the Biscuitville on Wake Forest
    Road with my father for breakfast. It must of have been in the mid to late
    1970's before every fast food chain on the block had biscuits on their
    breakfast menu. It was a real treat.

    I still enjoy going to Biscuitville every now and then. When I go I
    inevitably get either a fried bologna or smoked sausage biscuit. Neither
    of which can be found at your local McDonald's or Hardees fast food chain.

    Don't underestimate Biscuitville.

    Biscuitville is still king of the breakfast biscuit.

    But, does anyone remember when it was the Red Barn?

    Yep. I remember going to the Red Barn and being disappointed when it
    closed. I don't remember very much about their food however. I remember
    them giving out toys or trinkets of some kind with the kids meals.

    Burger joint filling a market niche about half-way between Burger King
    and Hardees - pretty similar to Roy Rogers.

    The Red Barn was a fast food hamburger chain. They had, at one time, two
    franchises in Raleigh. The former Red Barn location on Wake Forest Rd in
    Raleigh is now a Biscuitville restaurant.

    Their menu/product line was similar to the Roy Rogers fast food
    hamburger chain.

    Their market niche was (for a while) between that of the Burger King
    fast food hamburger chain and that of the Hardees fast food hamburger chain.

    The Red Barn chain is no longer in business. Hardees chain is very close
    to being no longer in business.

    The Burger King chain is still in business.
