Guest guest Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 McDonald's Gives Fast Food a Facelift LONDON (Reuters) - McDonald's fast food chain, renowned for cheap hamburgers and plastic decor, has given one of its London restaurants an upmarket makeover to lure in the ladies who lunch. The outlet on the Strand in downtown London has eschewed brash colors in favor of chrome, leather armchairs, retro seating, glass and sophisticated lighting. The decor does not include the customary life-size model of beaming clown Ronald McDonald. " The luxury new look offers customers the chance to dine in high style surroundings for a fraction of the cost. In terms of ladies who lunch, we think we can give Harvey Nichols or The Ivy a run for their money, " restaurant spokeswoman Amanda Pierce said. " We're aiming for it to become a star spotters' paradise, " she said. Forty restaurants across Britain will be redone in the same style as London's flagship restaurant. " We are mystics and believers and children to our dying day. " --Rod Serling in " The Messiah on Mott Street " , a NIGHT GALLERY episode starring Edward G. Robinson, Yaphet Kotto, and Tony Roberts.

Guest guest Posted February 11, 2004 Report Share Posted February 11, 2004 still doesn't change the fact that their food is sh*t! i hope that the " ladies who lunch " will have the class, decency and taste to avoid mcdonalds. the only people this change might bring in are the proles that are consumed with the torment that they not upper-class. but i doubt even hyacinth bucket (that's pronounced bouquet) would be seen there. lol. nice to see you back, gene. --- The Stewarts <stews9 wrote: > McDonald's Gives Fast Food a Facelift Finance: Get your refund fast by filing online. http://taxes./filing.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
