Burger King opens in South Africa

What do you think of this global burger giant coming to our shores? Yay or nay?

We’d like to interrupt this download with breaking news. Burger King is coming to South Africa! Yes, it’s true. As of early 2013, Cape Town will see the opening of the first Burger King branch.

In an article published by Business Day Live, the global food chain is set to start consuming the country’s fast-food market one city/town at a time. Do you think Poffader will get one?!

After all, Burger King is the second-largest hamburger chain in the world. And check it, there's a legit SA Facebook page!

Who’s for a Whopper?

Burger King’s signature ‘dish’, The Whopper has been around for 55 years and although it’s undergone a few tweaks here and there, it still sells like crazy worldwide!

Cape Town mayor Patricia de Lille was quoted in the article saying,

"Foreign direct investment that boosts our city, and our country, is warmly welcomed."

Whopper in maaah face!

I don't do fast-food.

What happened to 'eating local'? I support the little guy.
