TRANSCRIPT: Rollins College has a self-guided campus tour highlighting memorabilia from Mister Rogers aka Fred Rogers. He went to Rollins when he wasn’t dead. If you wanna see his original shoes and sweater and some historic papers of his but don’t want to feel like a creeper slurking up and down the sidewalks of a college campus, you can take their Virtual Tour which we stole from their website and put on OUR website. Won’t you be my neighbor?
The Waffle Double Down chicken sammich from KFC is launching soon… only in Canada. It comes with maple aioli sauce, two chicken breasts acting as buns, and a belgian waffle in the center acting as food. According to KFC Canada’s chief marketing officer Samantha Redman, this is their answer to customers asking for chicken n’ waffles.How about just offering chicken n waffles? No plans have been announced to bring this beast to the U.S. so local Orlando restaurants: you know what to do! Get it on your menu NOW. I guarantee you’ll have locals who want it. The burger bros will dare each other to eat 4 at once and a gallon of water and die and the Instagram hags will shit their mom jeans counting all the likes their story gets.
The Seacoast Bank at 925 S. Orlando Ave in Winter Park has been demolished to make way for a 2,700 sq ft PDQ chicken-based fast food restaurant. PDQ’s menu includes chicken tenders, nuggets, sandwiches and salad, very much in the vein of Chick Fil A. Their chicken is steroid and hormone free. They also serve milkshakes and cookies. No expected opening date has been announced but I hope to Christ Chik-Fil-A is shaking in their gay hating boots.
Late this year the team behind Domu restaurant at East End Market are opening Chibi, a quick/casual version of DOMU in East Orlando at Waterford Lakes Town Center next to Fresh Kitchen. Chibi, which means “little” in Japanese, will still feature key items such as house made noodles and broth for their ramen but sold in a cheaper quicker fashion. Guests will not have chairs but instead stand slash lean at a ledges around the space. The dishes and silverware will all be disposable. Guests will order from kiosks. Combined, these features will bring the feel of a modern day Japanese ramen shop to Orlando according to the DOMU team. The Daily City’s architecture department says they envision the interior will be like the size and shape of Wally’s Bar but without smoke and with food. The Daily City asked for renderings of the interior but DOMU said it was too early in the process and they didn’t have them. We offered to do their renderings for them and they just laughed. We were serious.
