are hungry. All succesful fast food tastes good to the target market. TV ads can bring in first time buyers, but flavor and expectations must be met to get repeat business. Comments?

Or how about a high end, appetizer fast food type place, where the food doesn’t taste like it comes out of a steam table. Kinda like Tapas I guess. Calamari, STuffed mushrooms, Agedashi, Some Dim Sum, Mini-chimicangas,...

I do it all the time, esp. since almost none of the fast-food salads are vegetarian. (Does that sound ridiculous to anyone else??) Sometimes I have them replace the chicken with the veggie burger patty.

I need a fast, inexpensive chicken dish that I can cook for 35 people. It’s for a homeless shelter where they have no cooking/warming ability, so something that could be served room temp. would be perfect. I’m short...

I need to come up with two different (contrasting) fast desserts tonight that look very posh... I have a well-stocked pantry and can go to the market before I go home... anything you guys rely on in a pinch? Please help!
