    .. it's gotta be KFC drive-thru. You don't even have to get out of the car, or off your seat & if you have you money not shoved into yr pockets, you don't even have to take off your seat belt & struggle to get at it. Surely that can't be beaten for pure laziness?

    This is not a thread about the quality of the food. I demand you stay on topic. :D Have to say though - their chips with gravy are pretty tasty.

    Never tried either - can you drive thru them? The biggest amount of energy used in ordering at KFC is pressing the button to roll the window down (rolling down your window for those with medieval cars) and more than likely having to repeat the order about 5 times coz they can't hear you through their hi-tech intercom system. So can you order at Borza or Best without speaking?

    I'm pretty sure that I don't need to speak in Best as I'm in there for the same thing at least once a week... I just order verbally out of politeness now.:)

    I've a similar thing with Centra on Castle Street.. if I walk in there before 11am, the girl behind the counter automatically makes me up a roll with sausages & ketchup while i'm getting myself a coffee. Not the laziest meal, but definitely the laziest breakfast i can get in Sligo.

    Went to KFC drivethru in September. 3 times in the one week. I had to stop and haven't been back since. The sheer convenience was to much to take. I'd been through loads elsewhere, but it's only when it arrives in your home town, do go feel the real sense of well being associated with getting food handed to you without even leaving your car:o. Popcorn Chicken ftw.:pac:

    Sorry Takola, I broke under the gravy pressure...

    Ring Sligo Home Deliveries and you don't even have to get off your chair, never mind drive!

    But you have to answer the door. I like the idea of being handed the food while actually sitting down. It's not about the unhealthy food. It's the principal of the thing.

    You can but you'd probably write the car off.

    Or alternatively you could get Starbelgrade to dish you out some of his famous coddle (sorry sausage casserole) in you living room. Gravy on the side.
    Thats particularly handy , you wouldnt have to move from the sofa if he got you a tray. Should put a smile on one r two sisters faces! ;):D

    I'd say ordering using dominoes website would be the laziest. I mean KFC you have to go out in ur car, granted you have to walk to the door but you dont even need shoes on. Ah to be lazy

    :D

    You can get KFC delivered by Sligo Home Deliveries same as Dominoes, so the effort required is the same... unless they deliver by e-mail? "Please find attached 12" spicy jalepeno pizza with extra cheese as requested":D

    You can text Sligo Home Deliveries... I was thinking about giving them a key, then they could drop the food on the coffee table, pick up the money and cheerio. :D

    I love KFC.

    I just never eat it because I have a vested interest in being able to find jeans. I never really rocked the mumu look, strangely enough.

    heard something about a micky d's drive though opening near the retail park as well (groan), no links, sorry

    for me, it has to be best or the bistro, in the next half hour its going to be pick up the phone, dial, and open front door 45mins later, best and easiest pizza ever

    ps, wheres borzas, is it a chippy or kebab place

    We here at Casa Xiney are quite partial to Four Star Pizza... aparently online ordering works in Sligo now but we haven't tried it.

    Mr gets the scorcher, I get the Manhattan Classic. More of a treat than "dinner" though.
