Fast food joints
Tuesday, May 29, 2007 4:44 pm
We usually take the kids out to McDonalds for food mainly because of the ambience, the service and the conveniences they offer. The food isn’t great when compared to Burger King but in Malaysia, having a great Whopper in a lousy atmosphere is also not much fun. We are not fried chicken fans either so have never brought the kids to KFC or Marrybrown.
So it is no surprise that Braedyn has his special name for the Golden Arches. He calls it “Gar Gar” (no surprises there). Everything to do with McDonalds is “Gar Gar”. He calls the restaurant that. He calls Ronald McDonald that. He calls Hamburglar that. Even the play area is not spared!
Mummykhong is blessed to have Braedyn around because she’s very poor with directions. So with Braedyn, he can easier lead her to the nearest McDonalds because everytime we drive past one, he will spot it immediately and say “Gar Gar”. Must be the golden arches.
What is more surprising is that he even points out the Burger Kings and the KFCs. They are all “gar gar”. Must be the red colour signages.
So come join us at Gar Gar where the food is fist-sucking good (according to Shayanne).

Hmm…. think I read somewhere that Gar Gar = little birdie as well? LOL darn, so many blogs to read now I’m all mixed up
You are correct. Gar Gar is Braedyn’s default for everything he cannot call yet.

Oh my.. what is wrong.. how come it won’t let me post my comments..
Gar gar to Brae is McD and also his birdie. So Mc D is related to that to him?? haha
Kids always know McD before they know any other fast food joint.. now talk about branding huh?
McDonalds does a good job brainwashing them at a young age. Who here doesn’t remember their younger days at McDonalds? The parties, the mascots, the freezer visits.

May be Braedyn can play with Ivan in Gar Gar next time? Ivan love McD n KFC. He would request to eat KFC or McD if he has craving on that particular day.
I have moved. Please visit my new home at http://www.allyfeel.com
