Stupid stuff.

So instead of launching our own brands, we again want a foreign brand to enter the market.

Chalo, i hope if they bring this brand, I really hope that the quality standards dept is with the franchisor and now everything is handed over to the frnachisee.

KFC Pakistan makes zingers out of thigh pieces which i really hate. Loved the chicken of popeyes in Canada that were made of breast pieces. In Pakistan, restaurants copy each other so everyone makes zinger from thigh piece.

Wonder what they will do with Albaik here.
