I won’t hear a bad word about Red Rooster.

it’s a fabulous institution of culinary delights 

It's fabulous because after you eat their chips, you have to wash all the salt away with a 6 pack.

This explains so much.

Look a classic quarter is a thing of beauty. I'd use caution when exploring the menu beyond that. Having said that, the worst thing on the menu (Rooster Roll) is also one of the most delicious things you can get anywhere. You just don't buy it when you're awash with self respect is all.

I can microwave my own food at home thanks.

 

but for real. The only good things at RR are anything fried (chips, chicken strips ect) everything else (even rooster rolls) are microwaved. Roast chickens are excluded too but Coles/Woolies/Costco ones are great and cheaper.

 

What I'm trying to say is I want to love Red Rooster but it always disappoints, and I know a lot about disappointing people.

@DaptoFunlandGuy knows you used to run a dating service for chickens, but the business closed down because you struggled to make hens meet.

Only recently introduced to pineapple fritters and annoyed I've missed out on them for so long in my life.

Back in the day before cyclone Yasi, the Hawaiian pack had 1 pineapple fritter and 1 banana fritter.

It's a Tropicana pack, or trop pack for short.

Sure now it is. When the banana fritter was in it wasn't though.

 

 

In sydney when i worked there from lets say 09-10, there was no banana and it was still a trop pack.

 

Gotta be atleast 3 calender cyclones prior to Yasi.

My dad still calls it a Hawaiian pack to this day. He also still calls it Big Rooster and a quick Wiki search tells me that change happened in '92.

 

Researched way too much into this...

Peter Kailis invented theHawaiian pack and it changed names to trop pack when they replaced the banana with the extra pineapple from what I can find. No dates or years though, but the inventor still buys them to this day (when the article was written).
