The Red Rooster Line

Red Rooster, El Jannah, Chargrill Charlie's...which chicken chain is your allegience with?

TBH mine is with Chickenville, Marrickille's own. Best chips. Don't argue!

Can't quite beleive I am linking to Honi Soit, but here we are. A few years ago there was talk about "The Red Rooster Line" - the divide between the west and the North/East. I am missing a few El Jannah's (and also there has been a few more open up including one on King Street in Newtown). And they seem to be missing a stack of Red Rooster's. It's an interesting way to look at class and cultural background, maybe...It certainly set the ironic twitter crowd on fire. Anyhow, I'm here to map, not to critique some student's article in HS.
