 JW> We don't have LJS in Canada.

But I should add we have a lot of good Mom and pop joints in those
parts of the country where there is a reasonably large number of
Brits and their descendants, like Toronto, the rest of southern
Ontario and the Maritimes.

 JW> I hear they are pretty low quality.

 DD> Long John's is what it is. You don't go to a fast food joint
 DD> looking for haute cuisine.

Nope. Just reasonably good fish, not too greasy, good chips, good
cole slaw, malt vinegar, real tartare sauce and maybe mushy peas. I
read on-line reviews that state LJS fails on most of those counts.

 DD> if I smell rancid grease when I open the door I do a 180

That seems to be a common complaint, that and excessively greasy
food because the oil isn't hot enough and the batter absorbs it.

But again, I admit I have had no first hand experience with them.

 DD> root beer, just like real beer often tastes different on draught
 DD> than from a can/bottle. And A&W is no exception.

Granted.
