That would be Febo. And they have genuine fried chicken there. The bestest. Not one KFC can beat that!

ummm KFC is gorgeous chicken!
Finland is really lacking in nice quick places for food. Marks and Spencers should be here flogging their sandwiches, they would make a fortune!

Well...I have to say that I am constantly in fear that McDonald's will close down in Finland!!! The wonderful thing about McD's is that wherever you go, a Big Mac just about tastes the same as at 'home'.
Although fast food is not what one would consider 'healthy', I have to admit that a little greasy chicken (KFC) or Fries Supreme from Taco Bell once in a while does a person good! Nothing better than delivery KFC Mega Meal on a hangover Sunday
I also agree with BAT (i think it was) that it would be nice to have more Chinese fast food in the food courts. Manchu Wok and Teriyaki Japan were so good back home!!
Just my two cents worth...

Greggs would clean up here. Mmmmm steak bakes and cheese and onion pasies. The first thing I buy when I go home.

If it is any help, I think the closest KFC is in Saint Petersburg, on Nevsky Prospect. Not a good reason to go their IMHO, but if it gets more folk over for the sights and clubbing then, I guess that's OK too.
I dont see KFC opening here any time soon. It is owned by Pepsico who also own Pizza Hut. If they havn't opened here yet, I reckon they ain't gonna! It probably has something to do with the really high cost of chicken here.
SFC are here as noted, their stuff in the UK is usually pretty good, here it is not all good. Tiny bits of chicken so small that in other countries they would be using it to feed pet snakes!

I'll end up coming back with one less Kidney than I started my journey with and being 3 inches shorter (in height - before you get silly!)
