    I haven't visited my neighborhood one in almost a few decades...or just over a few. Too bland a memory to recall I swear.

    Yes...pastries and most likely excellent coffee/espresso to wash them down. I did not see one single tip-off that the place was owned by McDonald's.

    Now that is an architectural makeover I can support!

    One of the main selling points of a chain of restaurants/stores is that they are the same so a customer can go to one that they have never been to before and know what to expect.

    One of my first real jobs was at a mcd’s.
    Good basic training and dealing with simple pressures kind of grooming there, then.

    Right, near identically bland garbage available for a low, low price in a supremely familiar, cookie-cutter setting. Act now!

    Did I cover everything?

    Eff that. It's gonna take more than an architectural makeover and eerily fresh looking pastries to lure me into McD's.

    Head to Japan--I hear that they have cups of noodles in 'McBroth'

    Years ago when I was in British Columbia on holiday the McDonalds offered slices of pizza.
