Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 Ok. Now I know you all know I'm now working at McD's, but I'd thought since this is newly out, might as well do a thread about it. My thought on it is, not bad. Better than most crap McD's has had (Hat Trick Sub/Hero Sandwich, ugh) that is like a limited time order. While it is called a Steak N' Cheese Flatbread, it's really a Philly Cheese Steak on a Flatbread. No, I haven't had one, but even my co-workers who've tried it said the exact same thing. Good things about it: ~ Nice and spicy but fine flavouring (yet, you aren't told that) ~ Actually tastes freshly made. Instead of greased fatty crappers. ~ Very filling as by itself it does fill you up (which makes the price a little reasonable) Bad things about it: ~ Steak used in the SNCF usually tastes "inferior" to actually steak you'd cook normally (I attribute that to freezer burn, and probably greased fatty crap. ~ Pricing for it is a little insane. 3.99 for it alone, 5.99 meal (that's Canadian). ~ Usually too much sauce is added to the SNCF and thusly, you'll need to get a drink, regardless if you want one or not. Iffy things about it: ~ Spicy flavouring might not be for everyone. ~ Although it TASTES like a Philly Cheese Steak (again, I'm going with second hand sources on this), it's not even close. Second grade at best. ~ Should have the Steak replaced with the Chicken from the "Lighter Choices Menu's Fajita", as it'd taste better (in my opinion, I prefer the Fajita Chicken). What do you guys think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ah, the McDeal for the day. Yes, it's cheap as borsch (actually, that's still cheaper). Oh and yes, I'm tired of steak and cheese fad too. I want like, good stuff. Yah, good stuff.

The Ghost of bps21 0 Report post Posted October 15, 2003 I worked at McDonals a few year back now... Let me tell you the two rules that I've learned. 1. NEVER order grilled chicken after 7 o'clock. 2. Anytime they try a meat more confusing than chicken...just pass. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Lightning Flik 0 Report post Posted October 16, 2003 *Places his chicken nuggets he just ordered back in the bag slowly.* Eh, its not grilled so..... No, it's deep fried. The McChicken? Deep fried. You know that Filet sandwich? That's deep fried too. I worked at McDonals a few year back now... Let me tell you the two rules that I've learned. 1. NEVER order grilled chicken after 7 o'clock. 2. Anytime they try a meat more confusing than chicken...just pass. Actually, the steak is like the Fajita Chicken. Just marinated. Oh and I agree with what you say. Also may I add that if you ever see a burger that was already made ask for another one to be done up. Trust me on that one. Just curious, but what kind of cheese is it? Pepper Jack. Something pepperish. I'm quite sure Pepper Jack. I seen the SNCF advertised earlier, and I was somewhat intrigued. So... should I try it? Try it. It's not for everyone, but at least it's better than most crap we bring in as our specials. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
treble 0 Report post Posted October 22, 2003 I had one for lunch today and it was OK. Nothing special, and even though I wasn't quite prepared for it to be spicy (it's not too spicy, but enough so that you notice it), I'd probably have another one if I get myself to McDonald's again before they stop selling them.

Actually, they are ordering quite well and word is, it might actually be a keeper. Or so management tells us. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
