Restaurant Name: Tim Hortons

Tim Hortons is a coffee-and-doughnut fast food restaurant chain largely based in Canada. Founded in Hamilton, Ontario, in 1964. the store rapidly expanded across Canada to become the country's largest quick-service food chain. Tim Hortons franchise stores are plentiful in Canadian cities and towns and Since there are NO Tim Hortons in California, I want to Try IT! Finding an adult in Canada who had never had Tim Hortons coffee before is the same as finding an adult who had never tried a McDonald's hamburger in the U.S.

Tim's has caught and surpassed the big-name American burger chains to become the undisputed behemoth of this country's fast-food business - controlling 22 per cent of what the the industry prefers to call the "quick service restaurant" market. Consider that, on the average day, a typical Tim Hortons restaurant in Canada sells about $2,100 worth of coffee, equivalent to more than 1,750 medium-sized cups. Stretch that across the 2,600 Tim's outlets throughout this country, and it equals a little more than 4.5 million cups a day - one for every person living in Vancouver, Montreal, Winnipeg and Halifax combined. It all adds up to revenue of close to $5.5 million, every single day, on a product that costs pennies a cup to make. And that doesn't even begin to touch on the simple beauty of the apple fritter. If it's not the perfect business, it's darn close.

Favorite Dish: I got an Iced Cappucino for 5.50 CAD Large and it was creamy and good. I also Tried the Hot French Vanilla for 3.50 CAD. I then tried the Assorted Tim Bits and Muffins and Donuts which cost 0.60 CAD per piece and it was also filling.
