Feeling Global: Chicago's McDonald's International Menu

McReady for International Food

Guys, normally I stick to the realm of fashion but I have tell talk about my awesome experience at the McDonald's, trying their global menu. First, I have always been a McDonald's fan. I remember being a kid, running through the play place, and being excited to see what toy i'd obtain in my happy meal. We were a McDonald's family but as I've gotten older I realized that I probably can't have it every other week but possibly once a month.

I spent a week in Ireland last year and I was pretty impressed with the Irish McDonald's menu. They had burgers named after different states in the USA. For example, they had a California burger, that consisted of bacon, avocado, and loads of cheese, It was heavenly.

I thought I'd never get to fully experience McDonald's around the world until now! Recently, in Chicago, they opened up a McDonald's that serves some food off of their global menu. The location is 110 N Carpenter, and is nicely convenient with parking, even though it's technically in the city.

Their menu is pretty amazing, I mean can anyone say no to loaded cheese and bacon fries? That is from the Australian menu. They also have a mighty Angus burger  from Canada.

I really enjoyed the modern designs that was utilized there. We could order from a kiosk and the food would be brought to our table, it was new, and it actually worked and flowed quite nicely.

I ended up ordering a Bleu Cheese burger from France. Now, if you like bleu cheese this burger is for you. They had an amazing sauce, which was quite tangy, and grilled onions with bacon on the burger as well. It was brilliantly made and didn't leave you feeling to overly stuffed afterwards. 

Something else that was different was Wasabi Fries from Japan. They're like normal McDonald's fries accept they give you  a packet of wasabi to sprinkle over the fries and shake up in a bag. It was an interesting flavor added to a classic.

The Casual Look

Of course if you plan on stuffing your face with a bunch of McDonald's you want to make sure you're wearing something comfortable. It's been quite  rainy and humid recently, therefore I went with the very causal and comfortable approach. The off the shoulder black floral shirt is from Express. My jeans, which I love, it gives such a flattering figure, is also from Express. I have recently become obsessed with their pants because they make smaller people pop a bit more in their tight fitting material.

Normally, I am not a person to wear jeans. In fact, I probably only own three pairs of jeans but  you can find me sporting a casual jean and off the shoulder shirt every once in a while. 

The best thing about this off the shoulder shirt is you can dress it up and make it so cute for summer. Adding this shirt, with a nice jean skirt, can be perfect for a night out and also perfect for a chill day of shopping, eating, or socializing with the girlfriends!

The best part about this shirt is that it is on sale, right now, for under $30! It is true to size and fits perfectly, I am wearing an extra small.

If you are feeling adventurous, but, want to keep it within a nice smaller budget I suggest you check out the new global menu at McDonalds. I think it's a nice change and it's always fun to see what other countries are eating around the world at the golden arches!
