Chick Fil A: A Review

At the beginning of the first semester, after eating at CFA a couple times, I swore off of it because it made me feel gross. So I didn't eat CFA for four months. Then at the beginning of the second semester, I decided to get a job so that I wouldn't have to feel bad anymore about asking my parents for more money to go to Fuego Fridays and eat out at fancy restaurants which I felt I should be able to cover myself anyways. So I walked into the Cougareat and asked for a job, which they gave me right there on the spot (they didn't even know me yet...maybe a good thing?) but not at Aloha Plate where I requested. Instead, I got assigned Chick fil a, which is the BOUJEEest place to work. The pay is higher, the people are cooler, and the reputation is pristine.

Naturally, as I started working there, I began eating there more. I normally work over dinner time so by the time my shift was over, I would be starving so I would just buy and make myself a sandwich since it was all right there. I rekindled my forgotten and somewhat forbidden love of CFA sandwiches. They are....dangerous. But I always stuck to the same order: regular CFA sandwich with no pickles, medium fries. (If anyone is reading this in Provo, it still is my favorite order just saying)

One day, someone bought a Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich while I was on sandwiches in the back. Even typing the name gives me goosebumps. What is different about the Club sandwich from a regular deluxe is they add BACON on TOP of the CHEESE. HOLY FRICK??!?!?! THIS EXISTS?!?!??!!??!?!? Even as I made it, I knew it was a match made in heaven and that this sandwich was divinely crafted for my taste buds. So I bought it and....it was the greatest truckload of carbs that has ever entered my body.

From that day forward, I have continued to be adventurous in my CFA dinner choices. We have salads and fruit cups and different kinds of lemonades and shakes - a whole world just waiting to be explored.

So here are my top 5 things to order at Chick Fil A that people don't know as much about:
1) I would be a sinner if I didn't say Grilled Chicken Club Sandwich is first pick
2) Chicken minis! We only serve them for breakfast but they are DANG good
3) Chocolate shake WITH strawberry mixed in (!!)
4) Polynesian sauce oh my lanta.
5) A regular CFA sandwich but add Colby Jack and American cheese on top of it....yesssss plssssss

Also I would like to add the fact that I am typing this in my dorm room at 7 pm as I mourn over the fact that I forgot the Cannon Center, the ONLY food place open in Provo on Sundays, closed at 5:30. Right now my options are an entire loaf of bread, hot chocolate, cheerios, some HUGE carrots (I don't remember where they came from or how long they've been there), and some mint oreos. I've already eaten all the pretzels and Werther's caramels. If you have a recipe that includes these ingredients let me know!!

  3. My Favorite Chick-fil-A Lunch: Grilled nuggets with AMPLE chick-fil-a sauce (like 1 packet to every 3 nuggets), superfood salad, and a lemonade. Perfect lunch!
