Think that there was some sort of partnership there for a while......seems everyone offers chicken now....I think there was always the option for eat in or drive through, but KFC goes back a long way!

Some one bought the rights to the Gino's name a few years back and actually opened a few restaurants:

As I mentioned earlier Gino's and KFC were a definite partnership. They had equal billing on the neon sign atop the building. The closest one to me was Camp Hill near the intersection of 11 and 15. It was just far enough away that I didn't get there very often, but I remember it well.

The thing I remember most south of Baltimore was the Pancake place before you got to the Bay Bridge. Pancake Wagon maybe???

My oldest brother worked at English’s Family restaurant on West street in Annapolis. If I had to guess it was somewhere around 84-86. There was an English’s Family restaurant in Cambridge some time ago although I’m not sure it’s still there or affiliated with the Annapolis restaurant. I remember their fried chicken being pretty good.

It is more likely than not to hear native English speakers using the grammatically incorrect “if I was you” instead of the correct “if I were you.”
