Mc Donald’s at 41st Avenue

It was lunch time, October 20th. We intended to have burgers as lunch, so we stepped into a Canadian Mc Donald’s. There was a small maple leaf at the centre of the big “M”. The cheapest burger of the day was a cheese burger which was sold at about C$1.6, slightly dearer than a drink of coke, C$1.5.










Here the potato fries were much better than those of Hong Kong because they were softer and more delicious. Ketchup could be pumped out from a big vessel into small paper containers.
On the cups of drinks served here were written some of the customers’ voices about Mc Donald’s food.











A picture of old Kerrisdale Grocery on W 49th Avenue was hung on one of its walls. The old Coca-cola Trade Marks, the wooden benches, waste paper bin, the wooden structures, the pots on a wooden box and the show-windows revealed the old days along the avenue. An old yellow Volkswagon in the 60’s was parked at the side of the grocery.

What surprised me here was a wall television set showing a European football match in this 24 hour-served Mc Donald’s. This certainly attracted many football fans to come.
