McDonald's

The kids love it! Drop into any of their outlets and you’ll know why. The colourful ambience, the mascot, the freebies and, of course, the meal itself makes for good times! The Indianised versions of the international Mac, such as the chutney-laced Chicken McGrill, McAloo Tikki and Chicken McCurry Pan even have NRIs rushing to sample the desi flavours. Crispy Chinese is icky, the Filet-o-Fish much better. The French Fries have their fans. Soft Serves, Apple Pie and McShakes are VFM. The place prides itself on its hygiene and the service is quick, but the noisy crowds can get a little challenging at times. The Goregaon branch is a great place for kiddie parties, while the VT one — with its wooden, quaint ambience, is the best of the lot. I’m not a McDonald’s fan.
