ignoring the service part of it for a moment, if you walked up and offered me my choice of a CFA spicy sandwich or a popeye's spicy sandwich, completely free, I'd take the CFA sandwich every time.

Then, add to that the fact that popeye's service is, more often than not, atrocious...AND the fact that the Popeyes sandwhich combo is $9.45 after tax, that makes CFA the hands-down winner.

I feel sorry for you folks saying that the red beans and rice at Popeyes is "awesome"...you've never had real red beans and rice in a Louisiana kitchen on a Monday night where they used the hambone from Sunday to cook the beans and have good spices and sausage in it, and decent rice. The rice at Popeyes is minute rice. The beans are watery. The sausage is more like Vienna sausage than Conecuh or Hill's. Pit-i-ful....


Well, since I rarely find myself in a Louisiana kitchen on a monday night, in general, you would be correct. But regardless, Popeye's RB&R is awesome.

Have to agree with soalaturkeys on this one. Popeyes red beans is ok for a fast food side item, but I would never describe it as awesome.
