This week we learned that the fast food restaurant Jack in the Box closed in Moraga which got me wondering what would eventually replace it. It’s been a very long time since I’ve been to McDonald’s but I do enjoy an In-N-Out burger every now and then. I also enjoy Chipotle. What is your favorite fast food restaurant?
