One of the things that I still don't understand is how the new fast food restaurants like chicken broaster make the mistake of not making the same recipe in their menu.

This is the only answer I have to my doubt taking it to logic because they should not make another option. While there are stores that have a great track record, it is due to its unique taste and that is maintained over time, you can go to any branch and you will get the same taste you got elsewhere.

Currently in my city the opposite is happening with the new stores and they are not following the same recipe which makes people question a little and have a preference with the place to choose even if it is the same brand.

For example, this chicken that you see here in pictures looks succulent and delicious, but I must say that it was not at all lacking that original flavor of the brand that some time ago I tried in a mall and it was really exquisite.

The first time I tried the chicken of this brand was in an area far from where I live and the experience was terrible, if not the worst. Then I gave it a second chance because we were starving and we were surprised with the difference, taking this into account we thought that Ian had changed the recipe and that all the branches would have the same result.

But it is not entirely true, this one was crispy, the potatoes were well done, the areas were exquisite but the flavor was very bit.

So this only leaves the option of just preferring one branch and not taking advantage of the nearest one or preferring the old school whose taste we already know what it will be in any store.

The key here as in the U.S. @roadstories is that if a business offers a franchise for someone to come in and join their brand, the primary business must set rules for all people who want to open restaurants under their brand. If not, then you won't get the original taste the primary business is known for. The new stores in essence operates as if they are their own brand or competitor. The fault lies with the primary business for not setting rules.

Then sometimes what can happen is the franchise business employs less qualified people to work at their branch. These individuals don't follow the recipes; therefore, you get a different taste. That has happened to numerous brands. A customer soon learns the different branches that are not up to par as far as the original taste. Some can have a drier taste or not the right amount of spices. I have left franchise businesses for that reasons I mention above.

Finally, a primary business can sell it's franchise name. The customers think they are getting the brand name, when in fact it's an entirely new taste and menu. They're just using the name.

At least this has been my experiences. Thanks for sharing. Take care and have a good start to your weekend.

Sorry for the late reply, I had a lot of work to do yesterday and today is also the day, but I took a chance.

The problem here is that the different branches are owned by the same owner, which makes it even more illogical in that the product is not the same. I think the problem in this case is that not everything is prepared for distribution of all, I think that would be correct, I even think that Arturos and Macdonald does it that way, all branches receive the product just to cook it.

And well that just makes me think that here the opposite is happening and the staff they have in the kitchen is not the right one because it is a simple recipe if there are measurements, if the same equipment is used for cooking and time, it is something standard there should be no problem at all.

A total mystery why the taste is not the same. Must be operator (cook) error. But it's no laughing matter when you spend your hard-earned money thinking you're getting one thing and end up with something else.

Thanks for sharing your thoughts. Take care.
