All of us love to eat out. You can eat cuisines like Italian, Mexican, Thai, Chinese, Indian or junk food like pizzas, burgers, French fries or various kinds of drinks. The options are literally limitless. You can opt for the dishes that you love or try out new and different kind of dishes. Eating out is like an adventure and every time can be an entirely different and wholesome experience. So when the time comes to discuss the ten most popular restaurants, it is a very tough call. People across the world have different food tastes and enjoy different kind of restaurants and cuisines.
If you can a pizza lover than you would look forward to Pizza Hut or Dominos every time you step out to eat. If instead you like burgers and similar delights then Burger king and McDonalds may feature in your favorite joints. If you are fond of cafes then may be Starbucks and Barista are two of the names you can count on.
A survey was conducted to decide the ten most popular fast food joints. Here are the ones that are at the top when people of United States were asked this question:
23% Wendy's
12% Taco Bell
12% McDonald's
11% Burger King
8% KFC (Kentucky Fried Chicken)
3% Jack in the Box
3% Long John Silver's
There was a time way back in the 1999 when McDonalds was the undisputed leader of this kind, but now things have changed. Not only have more joints sprung up there is also a big "anti-McDonalds" sentiment in a lot of health conscious people.
Then there also is a category of people who do not prefer fast foods at all. Though they do eat out occasionally, but fast food isn't on their menu. It is hard to come up with popular restaurants in this category but we can surely tell you about the best ones.
