I might dispute that. I occasionally buy rotisserie chickens at local
grocery stores and they are delicious, though they tend to get a little
soggy of they have been sitting around for a while. I try to get one fresh
out of the oven.

I would like to know why the fries are so much better at some Swiss Chalet
outlets that others. One of them near me is attached to a Harvey's and
their fries are good. There are two SCs in a nearby city. One of them has
crummy fries and the other has some of the best fries I have ever tasted.
